Did YOU fly today??

[paul 5ive-t]

managed 2 flights before the rain/sleet came, was cold and windy but got the week off so had to be done.

Another 4 flights on my OXY 3 at lunchtime, just in time before the rain! It was overcast, so a bit more challenging on orientation, but otherwise superb conditions. This heli is amazing too! No repeat of the spool up issue I had the other day, so still not sure what happened there?

Maybe recalibrating the throttle endpoints will help?

Another two test flights in the garden on my newly set up 450. I have overcome the main problem and it is flying reasonably well. Just a little more parameter tuning is required.

Possibly my last lunchtime flights for the foreseeable future as I'm changing jobs again and this time I won't be near a spot to fly in

Got 4 flights on my Oxy3. Will miss this flying spot. Might try and sneak over for a couple more cheeky flights first thing before work tomorrow.

Had 4 with logo 550 and 6 with KSE goblin 380 lunch time

Went for another "fly-drive" session again today to try and keep awake after finishing nights for the week!

Couple of really good flights on the max v2 but bodged an auto on the 2nd and broke yet another set of tails!! The little protos 500 is as awesome as ever, gave it a few choice upgrades and a new canopy/skids.

The xray xb8 buggy is a total riot! I'm really getting to grips with getting it round corners now! Nearly ready to try it round a proper 1/8th rallycross track in Slough!

Nipped out lunch time for 3 flights with the 700L. First flights for 6 weeks, felt good to get the thumbs working again.

I got out during my lunch break and maidened my 'new to me' KDS Agile 7.2. The heli flew great but conditions were horrible, high winds and biting cold. After one flight my eyes were streaming and I'd lost feeling in my fingers so called it a day.

Fingers crossed tomorrow will be better.

Here's the Agile (no p!ss taking about the pink canopy):

i suppose that one way to get into rachels good books!

Got out at lunch for 2 flights on the Protos yesterday. Had to retune a little after fitting new HV MKS servos but now it feels more responsive and lighter in the air.



Still loving the Protos

How are you liking your Protos then dude? You should give the carbon boom a try, it cleans it right up and the tail is even more solid.

Its great, I love the simplistic nature of it and it flys fantastic. I just need a good weather weekend to put more than 2 flights through it at a time! The carbon boom is on the list but I like to build up a few spares first.

Thanks thanks for answering all my questions

Managed 2 on the 700L and 1 on the Logo 550sx this morning before the rain came.
