It's been a while...

[Delarado]

Hey guys,

Been a while! I sold up probably 3-4 years ago now...Not sure who is still on here that might know me... Will be good to see some old faces though!

I've been thinking recently about getting a little mini to entertain me during the lockdowns. Part of me would like something to fly in the house, but im not sure if they are still completely crap or not.

Any recommendations? Im thinking about picking up a low end spektrum TX and maybe a little nano/mcpx sized thing. Possibly something a little larger for the field/park but only like 250 sized or similar.

And recommendations? Anyone selling any gear that'd help me out!

Hope you're all well anyway

Hey! Welcome back.

Hey Trillian, hows it going? Did you move? Am I going mad or did you used to be London based?

[trillian]

Yeah, I was in London until the summer of 2016 when I moved back into my own flat down here on the coast. In general it has been pretty good until this year with all the pandemic stuff. Plus I was thinking about selling and then decided to keep my flat and the net effect has been the longest span with (almost) no flying since I started the hobby. But I'm going to try to get back out there, even over the winter, weather permitting.

Hi, good to hear from you. The MK club is still going strong. (A little weaker than when you were a member as covid restrictions are in place).

Hi,

For indoor flying I would recommend the nano s2 from Blade
BUT
myself I prefer garden flying and can highly recommend the OMPHobby M2 which can be purchased from scotia rc.

Its a bit more money than your typical indoor model like the nano s2 but its great and really in a different league being about 250 size.

I have the standard transmitter that comes with the rtf version that I don't use and would post to you for the cost of posting if you wanted to go this route saving you buying a Spektrum TX

Welcome back, Delarado

I bought a 300x to fly during lock down. I quickly remembered that I hate little models, put it on the shelf and got the 700s back out. I'm back flying again and loving it, just in time for the crap winter weather.

People post so little on here now that I didn't even know you were gone?.

Facebook is far more accessible, but it's just not the same.
