Good choice with the Nano, flies great indoors and on calm days outside, too. It does have a habit of shedding props, check that they're on securely before flying. Are you attaching the FatShark to the Nano?

Yeah, the Nano QX is awesome. Flew it around in the hobby shop after I bought it. The FatShark is not for the Nano though lol, it is for my Horizon Sport Cub S airplane, along with my various r/c cars and trucks. I also plan on getting a Vortex race quad sometime in the next few months as well.

Got these things this past week, but forgot to post them here 'cuz I was messing around with them.
From left to right:
- BLU Life 8 XL
- Ultraviolet LED torch
- UV protective eyewear
(Sharpie and iPod are purely for size comparisons for the BLU which is ginormous in one hand!)
The BLU is huge for me (5.5" screen). I got it for $130 on Amazon, so I wasn't expecting much. Guess I could say I wasn't surprised. It has eight cores, but only 1GB of RAM, which kind of stinks. 8Mp rear camera, 2Mp front. The 1280x720 pixel resolution on this huge display makes the UI icons look like Duplo blocks, which I am not a fan of. But what can I expect of a dual-SIM 4G capable smartphone at $130 unlocked?
I didn't really need the glasses; the torch outputs a wavelength in the "safe area" of UV (backlight), not the kind you'd find in a tanning salon. If I point the beam at my hand, I feel some heat (it's still energy!), but it doesn't hurt. It isn't even uncomfortable, actually. 'Tis only a precaution.
Ultraviolet torch in action. "Obvious text" being written with the Sharpie pictured above and "Not so obvious text" being written in a highlighter of a very similar hue to the Post-It.

Craigslist deal, all that for $400. Only used lightly, guy didn't know what he really had. It all works perfectly and I can't believe my luck! He did throw in FM Horizon 2, maybe he was expecting a different type of game and decided to bail out on all the kit because of that. I was seriously considering buying almost this exact setup any day now. Had great timing checking CL that day on a whim.
Using this to get up to speed on Forza in anticipation of FM6. Set up was easy enough for me, but I wonder if the last owner had done all the required firmware updates and such, otherwise he would've been stuck to a really bad steering ratio. It's definitely not plug and play.
So glad the add-on wheel was included, I kept hearing the stock wheel rim was too toyish so I wanted to avoid having to use that. Love the GTE wheel. Also made sure to order the Ricmotech G27 pedal adapter so I could continue using those in place of the basic two pedal stock kit. Eventually I'll try going the CSP route for the PC and getting this beauty so I can also use those awesome German pedals with Forza.
Anyway, it feels amazing so far. I originally wanted to get a G920 to replace my G27, then I was looking at going Fanatec, but it was going to be so expensive. I don't have the greatest past with Thrustmaster, I bought the T500 and used it on GT5 for about 3 weeks before I decided to return it. I just hated the pedals that much and I didn't have a sturdy enough set up at the time so it sort of left a bad impression.
My mind was changed on the Thrustmaster TX after diving into the reviews. I tried the T80 at PlayStation Experience last year and it was horrible, my boneheaded self thought the TX was similar, man was I wrong. What sold me most was this ISR review, I can even show you the exact moment when my mind was made up and nothing was going to stop me from getting one:
T500 level FFB in a smaller package?! SIGNED!
Oh and it came with Forza Horizon 2 and the two latest Assassin Creed games as well!

I just bought the digital version of this for the X1. Had no idea it was even coming to the X1. Mega man 2 was my favorite!

Forgot to edit that, T300 is the same as the TX, just the PS4 version. I meant to make that the T80, which is what I tried with PCars at PlayStation Experience.

From the last few days: Oliver Spencer Carmel oxfords for an incredible discount, EVO 212, a silk pocket square, it's box, two tickets to a Jays game next week for my dad's birthday, and FM1 after @Terronium-12 told me it can be played on my 360. Couldn't say no for $3!
