Did YOU fly today??

[Mike Sanders]

It was a bit chilly but very sunny at MK. I flew my "new" quad. It went very well. Waveydavey helped me by setting up the flight modes so that I have off, horizon and rate mode on the one switch.

I will put more led lights on it in case sunny MK becomes a little darker during the winter.

It was cold up here too, hovering around freezing all day but decent weather for flying. I got eight flight in including four with my new Trex 700X. i was over the moon to a trouble free session after crashing the trex two weeks ago due to a receiver or FBL fault. The only drama all day was the Cstle ESC in my Goblin 63 going into low voltage slow down due to the batteries being frozen.

The 700X spooling down after a safe (but boring) flight:

Brrrrrrr! It was cold at CMHC today but a full breakfast in the cafe gave 6 of us the fuel to go flying. Only managed two flights before hands gave up! Must invest in a mit and heaters for Christmas!
Great day though with a great bunch of mates😃

Much milder than it has been lately, today was the fourth day's flying on the trot. I got 6 flights in spread between my G770, G630 and new Trex 700X.

Despite having lots of lights on it my "new" quad flew itself into a tree. Fortunately it dropped through the branches. Minimal damage.
It was a bit of a relief to fly the steady 700 after that.

Kicked off today with a flight of my 700n
Then had 6 flights with my 800 Pro, should've been 5 as that's how many pairs of batteries I had, but flew the same pair of batts twice.......Doh!! On the charger just now trying to bring some life back into them :-)

It was proper cold today.

Took the 6 year old Trex 500 to the field for a couple of flights. It never fails to impress me. What a helicopter. Shame the modern ones are worse or I might replace it.
Also flew a few packs through my 3D quad that's now kitted out with £25 worth (for 4x) of Banggoods finest "Racerstart 2008" motors. The 3D performance leaves the £75 worth of Cobras that were on there in the shade. They reverse so much quicker you wouldn't believe it without trying it out.

Oh yes the Synergy flew again, I love this machine it is proving so reliable. Really benefitted from my new heated tit mit! Thank you Hobby King😀
On another note it is great to have the forum back. I was fed up of being told I was Forbidden?

Not yet, not sure if the battery will take a charge but if it does I will be simming later

Charged 6 packs, managed to fly 3 of them because it got dark at 16:58.

I tried to, but a cyclic servos tried to burn itself out on the bench before I could get out

S**t man. That was an Align one? It also happened to me once.

That's a nuisance.
