  • Perfect winters day flying

    Come on then who got out there today (11th Dec)? It was absolutely perfect for winter flying - Blue Sky - Zero wind - Frost on the ground. I spent 3 lipos giving me 15 mins on each before I went into work lolol. Wonderful!!. Yesterday I tried my old Nitro heli but gave up due to carb/starting problems. Today I praise the lipo for such instant pleasure lol.

      Had a couple of flights today at work with the 450se v1- had to cut 2nd flight short as after just 3mins, experienced mayor power drop and just managed to get the damn thing down, crappy fp packs,can't stand the cold weather, looks like I'll have to bite the bullet and get some new cells then, heard revolution cells are ok? or maybe the new tp extreme v2???

              Did three tanks through my moskito yesterday and three batteries on my 450SE although the belt failed (luckily no damage).
              Hopefully out today if time permits.

                Same for me too.

                Out in the dark, back in the dark. rains, or working at the weekend

                Think I may have forgotten how to fly soon.
                It's been nearly 3 weeks since I got to fly a decent heli.
                Had an indoor session with the blade last Saturday. Yawn
