I’d had Sky since day one and like most found it getting expensive. When I went to cancel 3 years ago the girl on the phone asked what it would take for me to stay I said ‘let me have it for nothing’. I got it for free for a year then phoned up and still cancelled it

Hi they are Naza software for my drone, but its the fact it doesn't bring the program list up to close which program to uninstall that is frustrating me

Hi, this is really starting to frustrate me. I want to uninstall some programs from my laptop, I go into Control Panel and then the programs bit. When I hover the cursor over Uninstall Programs to bring up the program list the cursor changes to the finger shaped pointer, when I click on it...

My sister in law was with Sheila's Wheels and her renewal was £577 yet a quote on comparison site came out as £260. My house insurance nearly doubled yet I hadn't made a claim when I phoned and said I was going elsewhere they dropped it to less than my previous year

The minimum recommended size of a car parking space is 4.8m x 2.4m. If the driver of the GTO parked central in the bay it would give them 280mm each side to get out. By the time you take the depth of the door off it doesn't leave a lot. Car parking spaces are to small and drivers will park to...

As you said leave it on, or you'll be heating the water from cold. If it's on Economy 7 you should have 2 immersion heaters, one will be used Off Peak the other will be there to boost it if you should use all the hot water. Both can be left on as the internal thermostats will regulate when they...

I have Sex Is On Fire for her indoors, Work colleagues have an old phone ringtone, management have the Bannana Splits theme ( and there's 4 of them ) Anyone else is Guns and Roses Sweet Child Of Mine

As a rule of thumb 6mm for a 32a supply. I'm assuming it's steel wire armoured as you've said its 2 core and using the armour for the earth. Most sparks would run a 3 core nowadays.

Had mine about 6 months now, fitted with a Walkera 2d gimbal and GoPro 3+, black pearl FPV. Great fun just need to try and get out with it more.

With a GoPro attached they are brilliant, the image quality from the camera is excellent. I have mine set on video/photo mode so it will video and take a photo every 5 seconds.

Don't know if it's the same report but I read where someone in the US had shot down a drone and was arrested and charged with firearms offences and looking at a lengthy spell in the clink

I had thought of this, but seeing other discussions on UAV sites I don't think whoever shot one would have their licence or freedom for a while.

I was surprised at how accurate it was, it touched down a couple of feet away from take off point. It then took off again a metre off the ground and moved the couple of feet and then landed. I wouldn't want to try it with a load of trees around as I think it would collide en route back.
