[rapidgaz]

I did with Tony stevens and had a great day, flew my 700 which was on song flew my velo 50 which is getting much better, and my fuhkin ace 600 with beast:-) and had a blast. First time for about 9 weeks I think


Sent from me

Nope, didn't fly today, or yesterday, and won't fly tomorrow. Work commitments make it hard impossible during the week.

Yes for 5 mins in the garden to see if the new tailslider fixed my buzzy tail, it didn't! Bearing I think now!

Managed two packs a little earlier today before I realised I couldn't feel the tx sticks cos my fingers were stinging from the cold. Not to mention my ears I can still feel them warming up even now
Anyway, I did a few loops, flips and the usual inverted stuff before coming home for a cuppa. I know I wasn't out for long, but at least I know I can still do it

I met Gav today down the field. He flew a pack in his 500 & my phone rang but i saw him doing some lovely smooth elevator tic tocs. His 500 flys very well. Then i went to fly my Logo & his phone rang an uncle had come down to visit & he had to go, but not before he watched my half piro flips & my now messy continous piro flips. They're all over the place again & i'm not getting the heli level between each one?? Gav liked them though so i'm happy

No,
I did not fly today.
The reason is that I was very busy.
Tomorrow evening is the christmas celebration of our local club.
And I'm the president, so I am the poor boy.
I have prepared a poem and gifts and highlights for the evening.
And I hope at 11pm I can have some beers after the show.

You should do them in a good wind, the tail blades make a hell of a noise

No wind today i found it hard to hold altittude these were my first attempts and find it really hard to fly backward circuits any tips

dont over do cyclic & rudder, just ease the stick apart or push together slightly & dont panic. If it's balanced ok then just wait for it to complete the circuit

Yep, just had a very enjoyable (despite the temperature) sesh with Gav, Kol & Discoferret.

I got to see Disco's 6HV & i really like that heli. Sounds & flies really smooth & you could see it's got tons of power at a Gov'd 80%. It's very quiet like the Logo. I lost it momenteraly (yea spelling police!! is that right?) when i done a half piro flip from upright. I've never lost it like that before but then it did look well messy. I just held the cyclic till it righted itself. Once Kol & Disco left Gav gave me a go on his Stryker That thing just floats but i didn;t give it any beans, just took it easy. It was strange not having rudd control like i'm used to when flying planks in the sim BUT i coped & landed safely.

just got back from the field after a couple of hours with the Auroras.
Was bloody cold today though and i only just managed to get off the field, its getting a tad boggy.
Good sesh though

[p4ddy]

Couple of hours!! Lucky bugger
