  • Bloody hell! Good news!!

    I've picked myself up of the floor and dusted myself down and I've re-read the company letter I've just read that put me on the floor in the first place.

    Bad news first: things were tight last couple of years so for two years no general pay-rises.

    Good news: This year we've done so well that we all het a 2.5% mid-year rise dated back to july 1st.

    Wait for it! We also get a taxed £500 bonus in our next payday as well!!! :D :D

    Align 450 with 3gx (going to give it a go) here I come, Sweetie, here I come!!!!

      Hee hee hee! Nice one!
      But a small typo, methinks Vikki...
      You put 450 with 3GX...You mean 550, surely?

        Awesome. I am waiting for a huge tax refund but they are claiming I owe them money. Annoying. I was out of work for 7 months (no benefit, I didn't sign on) then got a job paying £18k and had that for over a year. They are claiming I earnt £27k a year for 2 years.

        Anyway, good on you Vikki! :)

          You'll love the 450... cracking little heli. Let me know if you want my DX8 and 3GX settings. Presume your going for the DFC one? The 3GX is fine if you get the mechanical setup right and use the latest firmware.

                  reminds me when times were good in my last place of employment, when they gave me a 15% payrise :) that went straight on to a new car

                  i'll have to speak to my new boss about a rise

                  ... he said no :)

                        good to hear people getting good news, so little of it about these days. Enjoy the new Heli.

                          It's terrible isn't it. I've been in companies where I never got a rise in 5 years. Brian's last place was 6 years then they gave them 0.5%. Terrible times. Thankfully this company likes to share.

                              TBH the 500x is the same price as the Trex 500 which is a way better option. I think Vikki had issues with the 450x?
