  • What a doughnut lol


    I flew today just practicing 4 point tic tocs. Yesterday i flew better & found the sweet spot in backwards flight, well it's was far to knife edge to be a backwards inverted circuit but it wasn't knife edge enough to be a hurricane but i found the sweet spot so i needed near zero input to keep it in it's position.
    Yes the big sigpic is coming back

      I used to have the Youngblood version - I loved it.
      Helicopter pilots get it up quicker.

      When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.

      Why simplify when it is so much simpler to complicate.

          • I've been flying the 500 and mCPX every morning this week so progress has been good. Getting much better at circles and nose in and even manages a few untidy forward flips (at great height!!) with the 500 this morning. Charged the batts up at work (shhhhh) so will take the 500 out again after work for another fly...

            Gonna have a fly of a 130x tomorrow night at the club so no doubt the wallet will be taking another bashing this weekend....need to do some research on the cheapest place to get them

                        Good to hear you're out again and that the 550's on the mend too :-) As for winter you could do what I did last year and shovel a landing patch in the snow and fly :-) ..................or sim and a cuppa!

                            • Flew my Stryker into a tree this morning. It's in many pieces. Now I have to decide whether to repair it, or stick the electronics in something else like a Funjet.

                              I'm off to join up at Heli-extreme this afternoon, so I might take my 130X with me.
                              Current fleet: Goblin Thunder Sport (700), Trex 700L, Logo 600, Specter 700, Henseleit TDR, V-Baaa control.
                              Next heli: I have pretty much everything I want. Maybe I'll upgrade some electronics or something.
