build/fly fpv drones, edit flight videos, customizing vehicles and motorcycles.

I like to build and fly drones of various sizes. Build meaning, ordering individual electronic parts, soldering the wiring the parts together. after completion of the build, then I program the drone to operate.

 A go-pro camera is installed on these drones to record the stunt flights.  Then edit the videos, and upload the videos to youtube.

Customizing Vehicles, I've installed many lowering kits, audio systems, added bigger wheels, better brakes, swapped out rear-ends from other vehicles, swapped in bigger engines not offered from the factory, swapped overdrive transmissions, swapped in electronic controlled  e.f.i. engine/transmissions. Rebuilt many Junkyard engines.
