  • Day 258:
    Bad day for flying...45 degrees, 30 mph wind and rain. I flew my Dynam HawkSky, I actually hovered more than I flew.

      • It really improves your piloting skills flying every day in all types of weather, when I first started flying I thought a 3-5 mph wind was horrible.

          He's an animal.....but a judicious animal......... cause I've noticed that his selection of what he flies is as such.;)
          No $300+ warbirds being sacrificed to the wind gods when things can go stupid quickly.:Scared:

          Only 8 more days TI and then you officially enter the short timers 2 digit count down to hitting that year mark ! ! ! :)

            You are so right, no P-38s or Tigercats in this weather :) Yes, just a few more days and we can start the 100 day countdown...however I've decided if I make it to 365 I'm going for 500, then....

              • Wind was zero mph all day today, so I just had to go flying! Got some time on a full scale Huey at work, and charged batteries after work and headed to the RC field. Got in 2 flights on the F-86, Spitfire, and Little Bird, and one on the Mosquito. Couldn't have asked for better flight conditions, and was flying all the way up until sunset.

                      I love the the Little Bird or Loach, I have a 1/6 scale 21st Century static Little Bird hanging in my hangar...it's been there for almost ten years now.

                      • Thanks guys! It is one of my favorites for sure, but I only pull it out of the hangar on a perfect day. It really does not like wind. On a calm day, it is a blast to fly though. Took it out again this morning and got some in flight photos this time.

                          TI, thats pretty cool! I have had the 1/18 version for a while and that was actually my inspiration for making my heli into a Little Bird.

                              • Day 260:
                                It was the first day in a week that the wind wasn't 20-30mph so I was feeling my oats and doing some full speed "under the power line" immelmanns...the third one was too tight :saywha The old girl was broke when I bought her and she's been broken many times since, I've already fixed her and the Foam-Tac is curing now:)
