    Falcon Components - I have a few questions

    Thanks for the reply, and component confirmations. The F48 I only need as a backup board at this stage, so unless mine breaks it's not urgent. But I will keep the post-Oct date in mind. It's more the receivers I need now so I can do a small show expansion.

    Falcon Components - I have a few questions

    It's been a while since I've been on the forums. I've still been running shows each year, but I haven't made any changes. This year I will make some tweaks. As part of this, I wanted to get some more Falcon controller parts, but, as I expected there have been numerous improvements over the...

    Mini pyramid trees

    As part of my first display I was looking for a small, easy, and cheap way to fill a particular space. I decided on four pyramid trees, which I wanted to share some build details for any new to the hobby and looking for ideas. It has 84 nodes per tree, so when two are put together it maximises...

    New guy, Brisbane QLD

    Can't believe I missed your post earlier this year. I'm on Cheltenham Pl. I was so busy with getting my display built that I lost time to go around and see others. Hopefully next year I'll visit some of the nearby forum members. My display videos are up today, and pulling the display down tomorrow.
