Did YOU fly today??

[450man]

MCPX won't auto as there is no one-way bearing. The blades are permanently connected to the motor and so won't spin up without the resistance of the motor. Anyway, there is so little mass in the blades that I imagine that it probably wouldn't work too well anyway.

Points for trying though!

Just been over Hook for a couple of flights, bloody freezing, my 450 was jumping all over the place in the wind. Had a go on Dons 600, amazing difference in windy conditions how little the wind affects in comparison. Mmmmm I really like the 600, shopping list starts tonight

Hovering the 130x in the living room was all I managed. Tomorrow is looking good!

Where do you fly in Hook. I'm usually working in Hook (Virgin Media) at least once or twice per week. Is there a flying field nearby?

If you bump into Tony (shortish fat guy with a beard filling the vending machines) tell him "patrick say's stop skyving" I used to fill the coke machines once a week on that site & tested out the 'super dooper fast' broadband in the main reception on heliaddicts but now we have one guy on site doing all machines.
