              You really need another weekend up here with the lads Lee.

              We have just got back from another afternoon's ace flying up the field.

              Flew the 600nsp this afternoon and basically flew way and above what I have ever done before and loved every minute of it with no damage at all.

              timmy and Paul were round and also enjoyed the afternoon, timmy acheaving a long time ambition of doing some auto's and believe it or not put it in the square cut grass almost everytime from a great hight..

              Well done mate.

                  Ive been down since 10am and came home about 30 mins ago got half gallon through k3d#2 until i got the death rattle!!! so i now have a strip down job but that can wait as ill prolly sling a redline in there as the difference is ridiculous!! could be the bearings going in the hyper causing that but heyo ill suck that one and see i spose. Getting braver with my flips now aswell 6" from deck with blades and tail blades good job engine didnt play up then!!!! Oh and i did a piro flip aswell and the engine promptly cut out straight away!!! Not havin much luck with those but hey ill keep trying. got a couple of hurricanes nailed but still cant get funnels right. All in all a good day with heli still in one peice

                        use wildcat or optifuel and change your bearings once a year not every 4 gallon magnums good gear power wise but so corrosive

                            i used to get anywhere between 5 and 8 gallons before the bearings went using magnum.. since using wildcat iv'e changed one set in a year and a half
