RC Helicopter Repair - Tips For Fixing Your RC Helicopter
Remote controlled helicopters are the most difficult to operate among all the remote controlled vehicles and air crafts. They are also the most expensive to buy. Because of this, you have to try your best not to cause any damage to your RC chopper. But of course, crashes and damages are unavoidable no matter how careful or good a flyer you are.
All people who are into this hobby will experience or have experienced at least one problem with their RC choppers. In cases like these, you have to be prepared for different types of problems related to your RC chopper to prevent further damage.
Here are some RC helicopter repair tips that you should know.
First, you have to have all the basic RC helicopter repair tools that you will need in case of damage or trouble. Some of the tools that should be included in your tool kit are adhesives, hardware, hand tools, power tools, grease, zip ties, braid kits, Velcro, and setup tools, to list down a few. It is important to keep them in one tool kit and take it whenever you go somewhere to fly your remote controlled helicopter. You can buy these from hobby shops that's ell RC helicopters or online. Some of them are miniature versions of the real tools.
Another important RC helicopter repair tips is to lubricate all the moving parts. Parts that are not properly lubricated cause a rough and unstable flight and it can also damage the blade. Make sure that you lightly lubricate the parts for a smooth and trouble-free flight.
A broken blade is another common problem with the RC chopper. This usually happens after a crash or when the RC chopper is not stored properly. It is not advisable to try to glue the blade together because this can cause the helicopter to vibrate, which is not good. The blade should be smooth for your helicopter to fly smoothly. This can be solved by replacing the broken blade with a new one. Just unscrew the old blade and place the new one. Tighten the bolt that will hold the blade. Make sure that it is not too tight or the new blade will crack.
There are many problems that you will experience once you start with this hobby. Make sure that you do your research on RC helicopter repair tips before repairing the damage. If you are not sure about what to do, take the RC chopper to an expert.

Easy Knitting Instructions For Beginners
Posted here are some easy knitting instructions for beginners. I think when people try to learn to knit they choose the wrong pattern and the wrong supplies.
A beginner is naturally clumsy because they are not comfortable with using two needles. So why make it more difficult for yourself by choosing small size needles and tiny yarn to learn with?
It is also best to use the basic knitting stitches, just knit and purl until you are use to knitting. Once you learn these two stitches you will find everything else is just a variation of the knit and purl stitches.
First find a pattern with the some basic knitting instructions; a small flat item really is best. Try a dishcloth, potholder or a square for an afghan. These are all good choices for that very first project. The needles size 8 or larger is easiest to handle. Do keep them about 14 inches long or shorter. I love the new kids needles that are about 7 inches long.
To help you there are many videos and graphics online. If you do not understand the written instructions do check out some of these videos. It also helps to read the written instructions and than watch the videos.
(1) Slip Knot: Wrap yarn over needle from front to back, over the working yarn, and through loop, pull taut but not tight.
(2) Cast On:
(A) With needle in right hand, wrap tail over left thumb and working yarn over index finger
(B) Insert needle up through thumb loop, then draw a loop from working yarn through loop
(C) Release thumb loop, tighten loop on needle by pulling tail forward
(3) Knit stitch: Hold needle with loops in left hand
(A) Insert right needle
(B) Wrap yarn around it, draw yarn through to form new stitch
(C) Transfer stitch to right needle
(4) Purl: With yarn in front of work
(A) Insert right needle into front of stitch, yarn over and
(B) Draw new loop through
(5) Cast off or Bind off: Begin by knitting two stitches loosely
(A) With left needle pass first stitch over second stitch and tip of right needles which leaves one stitch on right needle.
(B) Knit next stitch and repeat process.
(C) Continue until all stitches but one are bound off.
(D) Break or cut yarn and draw end through stitch With these few knitting basics to get you started, you will be well on your way to becoming a knitter.
These few basic knitting instructions are the foundation of any project you will ever knit. Take your time; understand these few items and you will be able to knit anything you want.

Basic Pattern Making In The Hobby Foundry
Success or otherwise in your hobby foundry will depend to a large degree on your skills & ability to create simple patterns, i.e.
Patterns that are easy to mould, lift or separate from the sand
mould after a gentle rap.
A pattern that has incorrect draft on vertical surfaces, badly finished corner fillets, or a pattern that has not been finished to an ultra smooth finish will be difficult to work with.
Pattern making is an art in itself, pattern making
apprenticeships take around three or four years to complete, before you are given your "Trade Ticket".
The average hobby foundry worker most likely won't have the time, or the patience to get involved with the art of pattern making to that extent.
But the basic skills are worth the effort to learn, because
without them you wont get far with your hobby foundrywork, unless you PAY to have all of your patterns made for you, but that would take all of the fun out of it, and also cost you a sizeable amount of money.
Construction costs of professional pattern making can vary from a few hundred dollars for simple patterns, up to several thousand dollars for complicated pattern designs.
I happen to a know a pattern maker who designs and builds patterns & core boxes to make alloy & cast iron cylinder heads, it is not unusual for pattern & core costs to be around ,000.00 AU before you even think about melting & pouring any metal.
If you are a legacy of the old tech school system of the sixties
& seventies, there is a good chance that you still remember how to skilfully use woodwork hand tools.
Some of the finest foundry patterns were made using basic hand tools. More than likely you still have a chisel set tucked away in a drawer, or a spoke shave, wood plane & handsaw, plus
a host of other tools that could be used to make excellent patterns in the home hobby shop.
And if they happen to be a bit rusty, then get them out again and bring them back to life, re-grind the cutting edges and hone
them with an oil stone.
Remember what your trade teacher always told you; "sharp tools
give the best results."
Do the same with the wood plane and any other tools, such as a small set of carving chisels you could use to carve intricate shapes in wood.
You'll need some good pattern timber or lumber as it's called in the states... doesn't matter, it's all wood isn't it. There are many types of timber suitable for pattern making, but, you'll probably be limited to what's available in your area or region.
Quality pattern timber is expensive to buy, so ask for off cuts at the local timber merchant, which you may get for a considerable discount
You'll be looking for a soft timber that doesn't splinter, has a straight grain, is easy to work or carve, and finishes to an ultra smooth finish.
One of the easiest timbers to use is jelutong, this timber comes from the Philippines, I don't know whether it is from plantation timber, or old growth forests, but it is great to turn on a lathe, or shape and carve with sharp hand tools.
Some of the other pattern timbers in use are cherry wood, mahogany, maple, white pine, and many others.
Quite often a master pattern can be made from timber, and then a replica mould is made using RTV 585 silicone, this is a quick method to remake replica production patterns.The replica patterns can then be mounted onto a match plate along with the runners & gates, this method will enable you to mould & cast multiple parts at the same time.
With a little practise you will soon know enough to make reasonable quality patterns that create good sand moulds.
There is one important pattern making tool that will make you wince when you purchase, but it is an important tool to have if you want to make accurate patterns where shrinkage rates are concerned.
The tool is the "Pattern Makers Rule", this is a ruler about 500mm (20")long. Made by Rabone Of England. No B5. And the graduations are marked as: 1/30-1/40-1/60-1/80,
The graduations represent the amount of shrinkage allowance for different types of metals. The pattern makers ruler provides a built in shrinkage percentage, which means you don't have to calculate the final measurement or size of your pattern, you simply take your measurement from your shrink rule, and transfer the measurement to the pattern being made.
The system is quite clever in the way it's all been calculated.
For a quick example, the 1/30 scale measurement seems to give
the correct result with patterns used for cast aluminium items.
Machining allowance on specific parts of a given pattern may also need to be considered, generally your own judgement can be used to judge that.
Pattern making can be quite a challenge for the hobby foundry worker, but once you learn the basics and develop your skills, with a little practice your patterns will get better and so will the overall casting quality.
If you intend on making lots of patterns, the investment in a shrink rule is well worth the money.
And while you're at it buy a good book on pattern making, it deserves a study all on it's own, but it forms an integral part of foundry work, and because you're the boss of your own workshop, you have to learn to wear the hat of the pattern maker & that of the sand moulder & founder.
Sounds like a whole lot of work doesn't it, but you'll soon learn what will work best for you. Spend the time to learn all you can, and you'll be rewarded with encouraging results.

How to Create a Successful Scavenger Hunt For Kids
A scavenger hunt for kids is a great rainy day activity or one to get them out and running around outside. Sometimes it's hard to start the brainstorming process and actually create the hunt.
Here are 7 tips to get the ball rolling so that you can create a scavenger hunt that kids will love!
First: Determine the age of the kids that you are creating the hunt for. Are they too young to read? Consider making a picture scavenger hunt. Are they teenagers? Consider having more difficult clues and a longer list as their attention span will be longer.
Second: Determine the size of the group. Is this hunt for your own kids? You only have to make up one or two lists or hide one or two of each item. Is this for a large classroom-size group? Consider splitting the group into teams. You will definitely need to make more lists and have more hidden items on hand.
Third: Determine the location of the hunt. Will it be outside in a park? Around the house? Or will it be a road trip game that you play in the car? This will help you to narrow down your scavenger hunt clues and get dialed in on the type of things your want the kids to hunt for.
Fourth: Decide how you want to present the scavenger hunt for kids. You can have a simple checklist of items that they must find and bring back. You can give them one clue and from there they find another clue, which leads them to another clue in a progressive fashion. You can choose to create scavenger hunt riddles. You can call out from a list of items and the first to bring it to you gets a point, etc.
Fifth: Determine the time limit for the hunt. This is very important. Younger kids don't have as long of an attention span and you want the hunt to end while they are still having fun and wanting more. Older kids, on the other hand, can just keep going and there needs to be some guidelines in place and and end time to gather back together.
Sixth: Start brainstorming your scavenger hunt list. Include some very easy items, some very hard clues and have the majority be average on the difficulty scale. This is the fun part. Be creative. Look around you and around the location of your hunt to find those hard to spy things and those that will have your kids moving around from place to place and back again to use their energy in a positive, fun way.
Seventh: Last but not least, determine if this will be a contest. Have some sort of prize or goodie on and for when the kids complete the scavenger hunt. And if it's for a large group, have them all be winners and treat them to ice cream or pizza!
Scavenger Hunt For Kids is a great resource that will complement these 7 Tips and get you on the road to creating a fun and successful hunt.

Tips For Photographing Children
Parents and grandparents will often choose their children or grandchildren as the number one subject to take pictures of and understandably so. Children are fun and entertaining to watch, but unfortunately, they won't remain children forever.
That's why parents take as many photographs as they can to capture some of those fun and entertaining moments their children provide them. As the kids get older, those precious seconds, minutes, and hours will start to fade away.
Photographs help freeze those moments in time, so that they can enjoy their children even when their children are adults. The problem is that children aren't always the most cooperative or easy subjects to photograph. Here are some tips to help you out:
Take photos of them regularly
The more photos you take of your children, the better off you are. After awhile, children will start to get used to you clicking off photos of them and will sometimes even stop long enough to pose for a photo or two.
Children are more interested in exploring and doing what they want to do. The last thing they think of is whether or not what they're doing is a photographable moment. Once they get used to you taking pictures and see the results of them, they'll be less likely to run off the next time you want take a photo of them.
Be prepared
The best pictures taken of children are those instant and unexpected moments. Trying to set up the scene for a photo opportunity is next to impossible, because the child is not likely to stick with a pose for more than a second or two.
The world is full of distractions. A slow crawling bug can grab their attention faster than you can whip out your camera. Instead of trying to set up your photo with them, simply have your camera ready and shoot the second you see something to capture on film; like them watching the crawling bug.
For those Set up moments
Of course, the instant, unexpected moments are the best option, but sometimes you want to actually set the scene for your photo opportunity; such as portrait taking. When those rare moments occur, you need to have a helping hand or two to aid in making the opportunity a success.
Have your camera adjusted and ready to go before you even try it. Everything should be in place before your child is placed in the chosen area. Your assistants' job is to distract the child by standing behind or close to you and doing whatever it takes to get the child's attention on them and try to get them to smile.
When your child looks in that direction and has a smile or something close to it; that's when you should quickly take the photograph. Get one or two more if possible just for good measure. Try not to spend too much time on it. The more time you take, the more irritable they could become.
Photographing children can be difficult, but they can also be fun. Learn to be patient and don't expect perfection when it comes to your children and photos. Focus on capturing moments in time rather on getting the most perfect picture possible. A picture of a child dumping sand on themselves and laughing is a much better photo opportunity then a child in a fancy outfit crying because they're uncomfortable and irritable.

Photography Basics - Portrait Photography Tips
People are easily the number one subject for photographs. From party snaps, to photos of children and travel shots of family members in front of famous monuments, millions upon millions of people photographs are taken every single say of the year.
Portrait photography is a little different to general people photography. The intent of portrait photography is capture and display something of the 'essence' of a person; to say something about their character, personality, or life.
The three most important things to get right in portrait photography are camera settings, lighting, and your relationship with your model.
Camera settings for portrait photography
Because taking portrait photographs is all about a person's face (or if it's a wider shot, their head-and-shoulders), classic portrait photography settings seek to remove anything distracting from the background of the shot. This mimics the effect of looking at someone's face from very close up, and makes the subject 'pop' (this is photographer-speak for 'stand out and capture attention').
The way to achieve a distraction-free portrait photo is to use a wide aperture, often as wide as possible (f/2.8 or f/4 are popular choices). Wide apertures produce a shallow depth-of-field, which renders anything far from the plane of best focus - i.e. the background - as a soft blur.
Aside from a wide aperture, the only other important setting is ISO. This should be as low a number as possible (e.g. ISO 100), as higher ISOs will lead to digital noise, which is particularly ugly in a portrait.
There's one offshoot of portrait photography where the recommended settings are different, and that's environmental portrait photography. Environmental portrait photography seeks to show a person in their 'natural habitat', which is often their workplace. Here you want to show the background, so a smaller aperture is appropriate.
Lighting for portrait photography
Lighting in portrait photography can be as complicated as you like. Professional portrait photography is almost always done in a studio, where the lighting can be 100% controlled. If you're reading this, chances are you don't have your own photography studio, so let's discuss a simple lighting scheme you can set up at home.
First, position your model at a window. The light coming from the window should be bright, but not direct (i.e. not coming directly from the sun). You model should be facing you, side on to the window. Light from the window light will obviously light up the side of their face that is closest to it. Then, position something on the other side of your model that will bounce reflected light from the window onto the other side of their face. Anything white or reflective will do, for example a piece of white cardboard or a sheet of aluminum.
Now you have a basic, flattering light scheme, with the main light source on one side of your model's face, and 'fill' light from the reflector on the other. Don't forget that you should frame the shot close enough that the reflector is not in the shot.
Interacting with your subject
Portrait photography inevitably says something about the relationship between photographer and subject. Unless you're shooting professional models, the hardest thing about taking portrait photos is not in fact camera settings or lighting, but ensuring that your model is comfortable and relaxed enough to give you good results. A model who feels awkward, uncomfortable or self-conscious will not photograph well.
Often the best strategy to relax your model is simply to engage them in conversation, as this will take their mind off the camera. They'll probably get more comfortable with the process after you've rattled off a few shots, so schedule a decent amount of time and plan on taking your best shots towards the end of the session.

Learn Digital Photography - Basic Tips for Beginners
Fundamentals are essential to whatever your hobby or pastime is. If you can learn the basics then you have a foundation for the future. So here are some of my tips to get your started.
1. Get into the habit
A casual observer on the fringes of a pastime never really gets involved and never does anything worthwhile. It is the same with photography. Unless you are regularly shooting images you will never really get into photography. You need to develop a routine for shooting images on a frequent basis. Only then can you implement the things you have learned. So plan time into your day or week to shoot regularly so that you know that you have allocated learning time.
2. Learn your gear basics
Getting familiar with your tripod, flash, camera and other bits and pieces in your kit will help to you form a foundation for learning. In order to learn creativity you need to know where to change your aperture, shutter speed and ISO. Familiarise yourself with the most important settings on your camera and get to know their positions with your eye to the viewfinder. Once you know these dials, buttons and switches then you are ready to start shooting real images.
3. Get in closer
So many inexperienced photographers stand too far away from a potential subject and leave huge expanses of dead or negative space which serves no purpose in the image. Use your feet to get in closer and fill the frame with your subject or composition. This is what memories are all about. Images with people who fill the viewfinder. Years from today you will want to remember them and not a dot in a photo. Remember that photos create visual memories.
4. Use the rule of thirds
This is a simple yet effective rule which you need to understand before you can break it. Imagine your screen overlayed with a tic-tac-to or noughts and crosses grid which most of us played as kids. These lines break the screen up into thirds horizontally and vertically. Where these lines intersect are focal points or places where you can position your subjects. The horizontals are where you place your horizon; never in the middle of an image. Effectively using this rule will dramatically improve your images.
5. Change your angles
Think about it! Most photos you see in albums on screens or in books are shot from in front of the subject at 5 feet or 1.5 metres from the ground. By varying this through changing angles, moving your feet, climbing a tree or lying on your back will dramatically improve your images. Don't be afraid to look stupid when attempting to get a really great shot. Experiment and find the shot that works for you. You won't be disappointed.
There are many basic tips I could give you. These are a few that will transform your photography very quickly and get you going on your photographic journey at speed and with more skill. Don't ever be afraid to experiment and try different things. Happy shooting!

Learn Digital Photography - Top Pro Tips For Photographing Children
One the most challenging genres of professional photography must be children. Most kids are as dynamic as the images you are trying to create and if you are to achieve any form of success you need to have some basic tips. No child is the same and therefore each situation is unique. Applying the pros secrets helps you do this.
All of us want the ability to document the lives of our family members visually. You only get one chance and if you don't do it right you can't start over again. This is especially key for children's photos. That 1st birthday party only happens once. And, even more importantly, the birth of a child. So getting it right first time is vital.
So here goes:
1. You choose the setting
By choosing the right location and environment you get to set the scene. Make sure that the light is great, the props are there and the fun activities are available. You get to control the backgrounds and the activities. What you allow into the environment will have a direct impact on your final product. If there is something that is disruptive then you are to blame. So plan your setting carefully.
2. Make it fun
If there was just one tip I could give you that would contribute to taking successful images of your children it would be this one. The idea of calling the family together and saying that it's time for photographs just doesn't work. Calling them together for a fun family time will create an atmosphere of fun around which you can shoot a load of great images.
3. Shoot candids
In an atmosphere of fun even the more reticent child comes out of its shell and engages in the fun activities. While the fun and entertainment is on take a background position and start to shoot anything and everything that moves. A zoom lens will help give you a little distance so that you aren't in their faces. Try to anticipate their moves and where they will be after an action. Focus at the end of a waterslide so that as the child hits the water, you get the shot.
4. Shoot at eye level
There is nothing worse than taking photos of children looking down on them. You will never see pros doing this. Get down or up to the child's level so that you are shooting at eye level. The child must be looking straight at the camera. Of course there are times when you climb above them to get the effect of them all looking up at the camera but that is for effect.
5. Use props
This point is coupled to point two, making it fun. Toys, games and other activities really help but if the child has something in their hand or is sitting inside, on top of or beside something it adds a little extra to the shot. Props help focus the child's attention and gives confidence to the shy child. Often in these situations you can engage a child through the prop or toy. Be very careful though that the prop does not dominate the photo and detract from the child who is being photographed.
These are just some of the tricks pros use to shoot successful children's photos. Use them well and you will take great photos of the kids. Happy shooting!

Aside from a wide aperture, the only other important setting is ISO. This should be as low a number as possible (e.g. ISO 100), as higher ISOs will lead to digital noise, which is particularly ugly in a portrait.
There's one offshoot of portrait photography where the recommended settings are different, and that's environmental portrait photography. Environmental portrait photography seeks to show a person in their 'natural habitat', which is often their workplace. Here you want to show the background, so a smaller aperture is appropriate.
Lighting for portrait photography
Lighting in portrait photography can be as complicated as you like. Professional portrait photography is almost always done in a studio, where the lighting can be 100% controlled. If you're reading this, chances are you don't have your own photography studio, so let's discuss a simple lighting scheme you can set up at home.
First, position your model at a window. The light coming from the window should be bright, but not direct (i.e. not coming directly from the sun). You model should be facing you, side on to the window. Light from the window light will obviously light up the side of their face that is closest to it. Then, position something on the other side of your model that will bounce reflected light from the window onto the other side of their face. Anything white or reflective will do, for example a piece of white cardboard or a sheet of aluminum.
Now you have a basic, flattering light scheme, with the main light source on one side of your model's face, and 'fill' light from the reflector on the other. Don't forget that you should frame the shot close enough that the reflector is not in the shot.
Interacting with your subject
Portrait photography inevitably says something about the relationship between photographer and subject. Unless you're shooting professional models, the hardest thing about taking portrait photos is not in fact camera settings or lighting, but ensuring that your model is comfortable and relaxed enough to give you good results. A model who feels awkward, uncomfortable or self-conscious will not photograph well.
Often the best strategy to relax your model is simply to engage them in conversation, as this will take their mind off the camera. They'll probably get more comfortable with the process after you've rattled off a few shots, so schedule a decent amount of time and plan on taking your best shots towards the end of the session.
