not that i'm opinionated in any if you hadn't noticed i just tend to say what i think.... dave wise move it was a transexual flying thing anyway... nearly a plank but not quite.... dispatched

[gazza]

i'm gonna get a wrist slapping for this but here's how it goes, r/c boats are for people who can't drive an r/c car without wrecking it, r/c cars are for people who can't fly planks, planks are for people who can't fly heli's, and scale heli's are for people who can't fly 3d

LMFAO

[gazza]

Slight hi-jack sorry chaps.
I like the 50 size MD530 on that page, does anyone know if I'll be able to wedge a 600e in it?

[Randall]

that looks great really like it plus what a cool toy. i was thinking of getting something like that myself but £350 just for the fuz seems a bit steep to then go put a rappy 90 inside. would really pi** you of it u smashed the fuz

[Disc]

Er killed a scale body off.. my Defender went in oh so hard....

not good when they go in at all, shame I didn't have it filmed though....

In answer to the above quote,

I’ve found I get just as much pleasure from a scale heli as I do flying or “trying” to fly 3D, it’s a totally different stile of flying and takes imho as much skill to get it right,

At the moment I’m quite happy to only be able to do Inverted hover and flight Tic Tocs smooth multi rolls flips loops and nose in landings / take offs (with my Titan,)
Haven’t felt the urge to do or try more and considering I’ve only been flying two years (without any sort of tuition ) feel I’ve reached the standard of flying with a 3D helicopter I want to achieve, and without braking the bank,
If I thought I’d really enjoy moving on in 3D flying I would but can’t see it,,
its nice to watch the “sponsored” experts or “masters” flying for about an hour then I start to get bored,
To say scale flyers are failed 3D flyers, shows imo a smug narrow minded person especially if that person hasn’t tried other particular types of flying,

Personally, I would rather fly well and get enjoyment from all types of helis and the odd plank than to stick with one type of flying,
Lets face it, unless you’re really talented, have plenty of time and money or you get a sponsor, its pointless chasing after dreams, just enjoy the sport and respect other peoples opinions and achievements at what ever level,,

There, had my say!

o dear, "what will the wife say?" lol. Looks cool peter, would like to see it (and your MD-530) at some point. Are you still arranging a fly-in?

Anyone?

Not sure but it is for a 50 machine so you might need to build the T-rex a platform for the landing gear as that will be wrong and depends upon tail
length as well.

I expect it would just need a few mods to fit.

But I cannot think why it wouldn't fit.

Hi Jamie,
I still haven't fixed a date for the Fun fly,, I'll let you know, (prob end of Aug)
Hope to get the 109 next week and have it built and flying ready for the club BBq on the 22nd,
I'll be taking my helis to that so if you fancy a trip over,
It will be at the Ellenden field,
How you getting on with your new toy? are you getting reasonable fight times now,

[jamiem]

apart from destroying motors on a regular basis, i love it. just bought a third battery, so got plenty of stick time available now, just need this weather to sort itself out. as for the 22nd, i think we're goin up to 3d masters that day, so ill have to say thanks for the offer but we wont be there (unless plans change!). Good luck with the augusta
