    Yeah we should of got the video camera out a little earlier! The engine was giving you a lot of trouble though, every few minutes of flying was ending in an auto, the one you did down the far end of the field, out of sight was pretty impressive, the one in the video was a little hard but no real damage... just the tail gears from the soft mud lol.

    Its a nice heli though, its certainly worth buying a replacement engine for it..

                how about downsizing the fleet & use the funds to get it flying?

                With helis their so expensive I prefer to have just the one & be happy with that.. Theres people on here with an army of Helis but all they really fly is their goblin 700's lol

                        Get more comfortable with nose in pal and it makes getting out of those situations a lot eaiser!

                            did they show you the results of my first ever piro flip with a k3d??

                            And yes I am rusty PLUS the engine playing up doesnt fill me with confidence either, just pound signs in the air.......
