Remember Abdul, the weather conditions in England are not the same as in Dubai. This alone after the wear & tear of the electronics we use.
The people from England might have been sharing their ideas as a 'Pro'. But seeing that you have just started with this hobby, plus the fact that you are at a young age, We (the people of Dubdrift) are taking the extra step to see that you enjoy the hobby, safely.
Since we are some what the main influence to you. I feel that we will be held responsible if anything wrong happens. This doesn't only go for you, but for everyone who joins us.
I hope you do not take our advice the wrong way. We should treat each other as brothers. Plus, it's always good to be safe, rather than sorry. Right? =) |

| Another option is to use an old computer power supply, but then the same SCARY advice I gave you earlier, still applies.....ask someone to help you set it up, electricity is dangerous in an uncontrolled environment. |
