Congrats to all the grand dads. Didn't think I'd be writing that for a while! My daughter is 9 so you guys will be great grand dads returning the favor!

Somehow I got water into the auger of my pellet smoker. That caused the pellets that were in there to swell up and completely clog the tube. 3 hours later and some choice words and I have it working again. Unfortunately the dinner for my Valentine is going to be about 45 mins late. :facepalm:

The good news. The smoker is clean! Me....not so much.

Its amazing how a little bit of water will create a huge mess with wood pellets... Glad you got it going again!!

So I've finished the build for the 60e beast for an older club member. Just waiting on weather to do a maiden flight. Boy there was a lot of little parts for that build!!! Question. With a castle 100 and 6S lipo I get an impressive blue arc when connecting them together. I am using the provided blue connectors. Is this arcing normal? Seems like it would take its toll after a while. Thanks guys

That's great Nick, Yes that is normal for that to happen. I get that with most of my 6s setups. There is a way to eliminate that with an arc eliminator, I will find it and post it here...
