To a new home I ahd half a mind to cancel and keep him but it;s been a real love/hate relationship.
Best wishes to his new owners. I insisted ona warts and all go through him and a test flight so they could make a serious decision and abide by it.
I gotta say they were nice guys and had driven all the way from the West Country.. usually fly on the moors..but they were a bit gobsmacked at the breeze up on the hill today..well into the 30's
I found myself shaking when I took off.. it;s the effect preddie soemtimes has on me and why he had to go...but he behaved flawlessly for a couple fo circuits. I did offer them a flight but they figured the weather wasnt p for it on a differtn heli feel. I did also offer to try and calm myself down and pull some loops if they really wanted but admit I wnst lookign forwards to full disc vertical when t was gusting like that.
I had had my 12S 600e out early this morning when things were somewhat better and thrown that about but much easier to catch that heli if you dumbthumb.
I suprised myself when we went thruogh preddies spares boxes as to quite how much stuff I had to go with him.. 3 crappy canopies, 2 new in packet TT's frame parts, links etc etc..
.. so end of an era and not quite sure how I feel..
Still, if i ever feel short of aggro I can always get a vibebug..
