I have spent hours being transported in C-130s (hercs)

I have seen the props spin backwards but only to manouver the plane or reverse in car talk

other than that the props spin one way to go forward and spin freely when powered off when the wind blows them

I will give dielectic a go, cant use conductive it would link the tracks together and probably have the same consequece as putting wirewool on a 9v battery (best school experiment ever)

Ron was asking if the g cams if installed, would they change the colour to boardeaux red and turn the saloon into an estate .

Omega General Help / Waterproofing PNP switch

« on: 28 July 2017, 14:50:52 »

Well just after nearly a year with the current gls2000 I need to sort the selector switch again.

When I bought it the selector lights would all light up if you jiggled the selector. So I jacked it up and removed the pnp switch

Opened it up and it was full of a waxy substance, cleaned it out and refitted then all was well till now.

I think its needs cleaning again but I would like to waterproof the tracks or tje whole think

Is dielectic grease waterproof?

cheers

Most if not all seeds and pips contain cyanide, even I knew that

there was an article aboit the seeds, that you dont mash them but rather swallow whole and it was supposed to give an immunity to something but I cant remember what


EDIT:

But now they have made people aware of the freely available poison, I think this will be a fad like the acid attacks

He is  top bloke, bought 4 alloys, got a 5th free and was offered 5 tyres but had to decline the rubber (the saloon is only so big when you have a small passenger onboard too)
