Did YOU fly today??

[Pj1969]

Had a great few hours this morning, finally got the trex 600 brain all dialed in and maidened the new 700dfc with speed fuselage, wow what a Heli. Right out the car, she flew so smooth and only a few tweaks to the brain software and the tic tocs felt amazing, big thanks to Ginge for the helping hand and the use of the laptop. I can honestly say I'm happy with all my helis now and will not be buying any others. My fleet is complete.

I got 3 packs on the 450 and another 3 trying to set up my 500. I have a vibration issue, to keep the warings in kbar just rised vibration and not extreme or high i had to run it at 65 thr. Ordered new bearings, hope that will solve the problem.

Had 2 packs trying to set up the 500, but vibration is too high and didn't go anywhere, had an almost crash experience and after that i put it aside. And had 5 packs on the 450, which flies superb, i love it... If only the 500 would fly the same...

Well finished my third flight on my 12s goblin 700 when I heard a popping noise and a weird stretching of the Velcro straps etc. was still live with the canopy on as I realised it was one of the lipos just about to burst in to flames. Quickly put the pin flag back in and whipped the canopy off noticed it was the rear battery (which is the worst and most dangerous to get out) quickly disconnected and unstrapped them both just in time. It turned out it didn't burst in to flames but it did swell and burst open it was a lucky escape. Just want to remind everyone what can happen with a turnigy 65c nanotechnology lipo with less than 15 flights........
pone very good adrenaline buzz getting that lipo out lol

2 orientation flights on the 130x yesterday and 2 on the Nano today (orientation again, outdoors with a little breeze to get the pulse racing, well for me it does )

[miskin]

I had 5 flights on the Warp yesterday . Flight no.3 ended up clipping a tree inverted , don't ask me how but I managed the flip it the right way up chop a quite a large branch from the tree amongst other things and auto it down without any damaged.

Then while taking the canopy off to inspect it over I broke a plastic canopy mount. Flew to more flights without a hitch.


Flew another 6 packs through it again today and nearly dumb thumbed big time trying something new .
