Crashed the 450 on second flight, had a radio failure of some kind 10 feet up, think it's the tail servo, managed to break both side frames, main blades and boom. Third Heli to go down in as many weeks, it's been an expensive month!
Had 6 on the bl mcpx this morning and 2 and a half on the goblin. Got stung by a bloody wasp right on the neck while I was on my last battery, bloody neck swelled up and its still hurting now! not impressed lol
Had 2 flights on the 500 DFC. Blowing a gale this afternoon so spent most of the flights strengthening my right rudder inputs with ACW inverted circuits. Need to work on ACW funnels next then it'll be time for some reversals
Had 3 flights on the Logo & 5 on the X4. Very windy to start with and it blows straight down the flight line , so 1 minute one way and 5 seconds the other. Had to land one of the X4 flights early, as a Red Kite was eyeing my heli up. They're bloody huge, never seen one that close up before. I landed, it left, I took off again when it was 2 fields away and it came back for another go. Real shame we didn't have a camera.
6 flights on the mxpx bl this morning, inverted tail in practice and just chucking it all over the place which was a lot of fun! was going to go back out with the goblin and 450 but the wind is really bad now so will have to wait till tomoz
3 flights on the 500 putting the practice on the MCPx to the test on the bigger heli. Side on in both orientations is much better, and nose in much improved along with 45deg nose in in both orientations. Also managed some circuits turning towards myself as well nice and slow which is a big improvement on previously. So looks like the MCPx practice has paid off, now just have to wait and see if HH can work out whats wrong with that to allow more progress
