Had 3 flights this afternoon on the 450. Found a newly grassed field with paths and benches just down the road from the house.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1384365698.362509.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1384365718.830928.jpg

Getting much more comfortable with inverted and can hold it for a long time now. Decided to grow a pair and do some loops, aileron rolls (really messy) and generally flew the heli like a plank more time on the sim now to do some new moves...

A sunny start to the day here..plugged the 600's rx pack in .. 25mins later the charger bleeps that it's ready, a cloud covered the sun, the temp dropped 15 degs and the wind picked up and took my enthusiasm with it...

It was sunny yesterday when I started with only a little wind but by the time I was on the 3rd battery the sun had gone in, it had cooled and the wind had really picked up. Didn't help that I was chatting to a passer by about helis/planks and the sim for 30 minutes in between the 2nd and 3rd battery

A nice enough day for it today. Had a quick outing with just 2 flights and the time away from flying hasn't hindered me yet. Threw in more right rudder moves on the second flight including piroflips and feel a lot less "handed" than before. Comfortable with everything but the piro tic-tocs are still hit and miss.

Edit:

Decided to test the iPhone 5S slo-mo function (only 720P ) while Bothma was flying. It's ok for a quick bit of fun. Skip to 38 seconds.

had about 5 flights (i think), but on the last I had major brownouts and the vbar log is a see of red, low voltage rail 2.5v and loss of control. Fortunately managed to sort of get the heli down with a few bent links

Two flights with the 700 today and loved them both. I'm really settling down at last and I think I love my 700, I've never grinned so much after flying

Had a good afternoon at the club. The wind was very light, the first time for quite a while. Flew all three helis, did some rough circuits and figure eights. Then summoned up some courage and a did a flip with the 450 for the first time! It was pretty untidy but there was no unscheduled landing. Went home feeling quite pleased with myself.
