    • 3 flights in lunch time with the 130x....alternating between full positive pitch and full negative just to try to keep it either moving or get it back down after a gust...a couple of times it was stationary with full pitch....think it was probably a bit too windy for it!!

          I flew mine in wind like that last year... pretty much spent the whole flight fighting against the wind... trying to land it was interesting... in the end I think I got it a couple of feet from the ground and hit throttle hold - called it a day at that point.

            I gave up trying to do any meaningful flying and just hooned it round the car park, got quite a turn of speed out of it downwind I was flying it in the car park so didn't want to hit TH as although they bounce tarmac is a bit unforgiving, I flew it behind my car and then in the relative calm set it down...was a nice wind howling under the car but it was down by that point

              • My charger (PL6) peaks at 4.1 if the lipos are cold to avoid damaging them!
                Hope this helps.

                      • Managed to sneak a couple of flights in with my 500 on the way to work, just wanted to give the vortex a run up after setting up last night,
                        All went well, hands of hover and it just sat there, just a slight kicking on the tail due to the gains all being stock or it could be the plastic tail blades I had to temporally, thought I had a spare set in my box.
                        Looking forward to the weekend to fine tune the gains and have some fun.

                            • 4 great flights perfecting the vortex on my rappy 90. Tail still not right but putting that down to tail blades, will swap out and try again tomorrow. One of my flying buddies buried his vibe 50 again, much to mine and matt (rcrotarydoodah)'s amusement LOL

                              Matts 450 was flying really well, so much so that I want a tiddler again........
