    • Yes....at last! Only 2 months since I last flew.

      4 X Batts through my Swift . It flew really well till I managed to strip the gear on a hard landing.

      Couldn't get the Raptor tuned at all. I'll need to do a fuel line check.

      Several batts through the Mcpx - what a great little heli that is! Really enjoyed throwing it around.

      1/2 batt with 130x. What a pile of c**p that heli is. Screeching bloody thing

      Still, first day at the field in 2013 over. More to follow when we get the scorching hot summer that's on its way
      Happy Landings.

          • had 3 flights on saturday with my 500 and joined Bath model heli club at the same time, meet several members and had a brief chat, looking forward to the summer and better weather days, hoping to go out at lunch today for a quick flight also

            • just has 3 flights in the garden with the 130x and despite freezing fingertips i loved it. the wind really snaps it up despite it being light. im only hovering but its still great fun. im now doing side on hovers each side quite confidently so when my elbows heal a bit i am off to try circuits in an open space

              • well I got out for 3 flights at lunch the sun was out and it was really nice although the wind picked up a few times, which you can really tell we near the tree boundary as the heli likes to climb and descend. got 3 inverted hovers in to

                • I maidened the 450 today,
                  Was great weather not a breeze or a cloud in the sky,
                  A little tail waggle and we managed to break a TT gear when testing.
                  Can tell once flying it will be ok, needs a few adjustments though!

                  • Hi

                      • Today I took the Avro over to Epsom Downs as I had not flown it in a few weeks. I got this one 2nd hand and it came with stubz paddles and was so twitchy and ultra-responsive that it was scary. Thinking this was due to the paddles I changed them to Rotortechs and also fitted 10 gram weights. So I was a bit surprised to find it's still ultra-responsive and I was over controlling on everything. I am thinking now the head must have pairs of the hardest dampers (90 duro) instead of 70/90 or 60/90. I kinda like the super fast cyclics if I could just get the general feel a bit more tame (and I am already using 18% expo on the elevator and aileron).

                            • Interesting to read that trexmanic. I have the metal A gear and I am thinking about putting on metal C and D gears. I am also at the stage of side on hovering with a few seconds of nose in occasionally. Now that I have sorted the 130x with metal tail pitch slider and grips it is flying in a predictable manner and I am enjoying it tremendously.
