    No, definitely not the 1600 mm. That was the beginning of last year's flying season. I have the nasty little beast of a battery sitting right here in front of me, the solder let go where it connects to the Deans connector, nasty little beast!!
    I was so pissed that I came home and grabbed more planes and headed right back out again. My buddy who I was flying with that morning lost two as well. Second trip out was much better!!

    Smitty the Spitty is back in one piece and I swapped out the receiver for a Lemon and got rid of all the E Flite Gyro crap and she flies okay, it's a little under powered in my opinion.

        • Gee whiz, 2days in a row - out of work at 3 PM and winds are 15 - 25 and gusty. Maybe tomorrow...

          • Ugh! Man I hate when the weather does that. Hope you get some stick time soon, the hardest thing to do is land on the pond with the high winds hitting

              Similar problem with only pavement or hard dirt with various size small rocks up to an inch or so. About a week ago, a nasty gust slammed my Stearman into the pavement from about a foot over the runway and sorely tested those shock struts. It actually did break the glue joint with the gear mount in the foam, but fortunately it was a clean easy fix.
              CAVU and calm winds hopefully coming soon to both of our areas, once that polar jet stream finishes it’s yearly migration north.

                                        I love the pics that make you guess, is it real??
                                        Of course it is, it's just small:):)

                                          Yeah, I've been "knockin' on wood" quite a bit today. Was up in the area today, closed and picked up the keys on the new home. Final walk through was yesterday. I stopped by the field just to time it back to the house... 15 minutes. Makes the house payment just that much easier... :)
