Finally...a decent day for flying today

[r4nd0m]

really enjoyed it, though the umbrella gear on my 600 needs to be sorted out but I had a total of 12 flights so not so bad after all the rain lately ...

Just got back from the field, got 12 flights in, lovely day... Roll on tomorrow.

Had a great day myself went out with three goals:

Maintain a decent nose in hover with my T500

Fly some reasonable lazy eights again with the T500

Finally get my MCPX inverted for the first time

Managed all three so big smile on my face. Managed three back flips on the mcpx in a row before running out of luck or talent and breaking the swash.

Roll on tomorrow.

I got home at 5 and have been hammering the mcpx up and down the garden most of the evening with a few figure 8's thrown in, I'm learning guys
just out of interest what is the supposed top speed of an mcpx on full chat?
Cos it feels flipping fast

[DaveJones]

In my experience some where around mach 3

went down to the field after doing some work at home in the garden, cut the grass and had some flights with the brushless mcpx
after getting the ride on mower in the van couldnt get the 600 in there too so had to settle with some cheeky flights with the mcpx
