    New Peau 3.37mm lens installed - a bit disappointed..

    There are several mtg. In China. I know who makes the Peak re-sell. (It's a poorly kept secret) a couple years ago I had discussed buying the lenses for end users directly, but no one seemed intetested. What is available is more than $10 and looks great. The lenses are ridiculously easy to install.

    Nice,but I was making a reference to your term, "Jap". You must be younger than me so perhaps you don't make the connection. But even today, the term "jap" is demeaning to Japanese.

    I agree that forensic examination is warranted. I'd add that it is available to us these days, to simply take phone pictures. Much like any accident scene, pictures before touching. Cheap, karma free.

    You might take some comfort in knowing that I've put three birds in the Pacific Ocean. and..... it was back when the darned things were expensive. (OK, two were replaced under warranty) But it certainly becomes a life and pilot lesson. You'll be fine, but believe me when I tell you that I...

    Aloha, (yep its where I live) I've uploaded the files from the controller and wookie asks for files from the Solo, but Solo isn't cooperating. I've got the files uploaded to my Dropbox but I guess I have to have your info to ID you for the share.
