  • Put 4 more flights on the logo 500 today over at Wormwood Scrubs with Idleup95. It was fun to be back at 'the scrubs' - 15 years since I was last there, when I used to fly planes. And boy, can John fly. lovely to watch. He also gave me a couple of pointers to sweeten my stall turns. Also managed a backwards loop with piro at the top to forward out, and a couple of very dodgy nose down tictocs at 50ft. Onwards and upwards!
    That makes 24 flights so far with the Logo. . . The love grows. . .

    • 5 more flights notched up today. It was a bit breezy, but I see that as good practice conditions.
      Did my usual hovers, hover piros, hover circuits, fast circuits, stalls, loops, rolls. . . Getting a better understanding for a half piro at the top of the loop, managed a half roll at the top of the loop, played a little with rainbows, and had a few little attempts at tictocs, nice and high up. . .
      An exciting afternoon! Looking forward to the next one. . .

      • You could earn some extra £££'s by dropping little 'packets' into the scrubs from above.

        Nope no flying, if i fly i'll be in danger of flying everyday again & my bike will never get done. I may take it as a bit of time out for a while, thing is my flying deteriates fast if i don't fly all the time.
        Yes the big sigpic is coming back

            If this was anything other than a heli forum, that would sounds very suspect...

                A simple edit does the job

                        • Had a good flying session today
                          Our club has just acquired use of a local cricket club field, nice and open and only a row of trees bordering the road so perfect for us to scream heli's around in plus the planks for those that are that way inclined

                          It couldn't have been better today, there was hardly a drop of wind so I cut some grass with the 130x and pulled some massive stall turn piro's with the 450

                          You know the ones where you bang the rudder over and hold it as long as you dare

                          Managed about 6 piro's before I squared it up nicely for the descent the 450 is flying lovely

                          I took the rappy along but didn't fly it as I need to ok it with the cricket club first really

                          My only gripe of the day is I ran out of time as I had to pick my eldest girl up from school, should have gone flying earlier, oh well lesson learned

                          • I was out today too, but early. No wind but wet underfoot and cool at 7°C. The bugs were out in force.

                            My OS37 didn't like it much and I had to tweak it a few times but the TT39 just soaked it up.
                            I'm starting to like the TT39.
                            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.

                            • Had everything charged and in the car before work.. ( about 4.30 am loading it in ) it was raining. Guess what. It didn't stop so in response to the question, no...no I didn't fly today. Boo
                              -I don't crash, I just land with enthusiasm.

                              A couple of 600n's with stuff on them that makes them fly..
                              A 550 fbl with even more stuff on it to make it fly
                              And a Mars 470 which needs stuff putting on it to make it fly

                              And a DX8 too
