    • Perfect weather had 4 flights with T-rex 500 (figure 8's nice and constant heights) still a learner!
      had 3 flights with my new logo 500, super smooth , on the last flight tried some stall turns, this heli just gives me confidence.
      well chuffed had a brilliant day.

      • Got 5 flights on sat but was a bit cold, 10 flights yesterday. Found a small resturant that backs onto the field where we can have lunch warm up and charge batteries :-). After being away and not flying much lately started to get back into it.
        Did some tweaking with the Vbar to speed things up. Up the gains to get it a bit more locked in. Loving the Coolice Bluetooth module makes it heaps easier. Heli is flying great at the moment.
        Left the weekend with a smile on my face.

        • Great flying yesterday. Very cold but flat calm. Managed a couple of flights on my Gaui NX4 but had hassles with the pushglo which stopped flying.

            • Brrrr yes chilly today, but got 8 flights in anyhow - top tip for you all. . . If you wear fingerless gloves and are still feeling the cold, try slipping a foil used crisp packet in the back of your gloves to keep the backs of your hands toasty warm! I definitely felt the benefit!

                        It was nice flying til then though

                        I managed to sneak 3 flights in, and got my 55 tuned a bit better, but I still think its rich at the mid and lean on the high... need to get the temp sensor on it I think....

                            Had a good session at the cricket club today with Mike00Top and a couple others

                            The 130 trimmed grass and must have only been 2mm from trimming dirt

                            And the 450 seems happy just need a bit more confidence and that'll cut grass too

                            • Managed to finish work early today and get over the field for a fly.

                              Had 10 Lipo's on me, but only managed to get through 3 before my hands went numb brrrrrrrr.

                              Good fly though, got the tail in inverted circuits nailed now Well chuffed.

                              • OK i reset everything up on my Helli everything is balances main and tail blades set up my pitch range +!2 0 -12 first battery scrapped blades on pavement had the 3g correcting the wrong way around

                                OK first battery again took off did some nice stal turns flipped it over for some more high 3d practice and i forget to put it in ideal up mode again
                                so after that i worked on flips and small amount of inverted hovers i did try rolls but it was to windy every time i rolled it the wind would catch it and took my Helli off into the distance its about 20mph winds here today at the Field according to xweather it is 50 noway Ive still not tryed any hurricanes as of yet but my noise in hover is of a good standerred now I'm happy to be making progress again and enjoying flying again
