What did you fly today?

[rifleman_btx]

Wow I got more range with the internal antennas than the external one. I'm impressed nearly 1000 feet more

Sometimes it pays to be lucky than good... this was a butt clenching moment.

Ever tried a small plane in the wind ???? It's a blast

Took my 50 inch balsa Cub up last Sunday in an 8kt wind that picked up to about 12-15 right after takeoff - it’s close to a Vapor as the battery weighs more than the plane.

“kinda windy for that little bird, eh Mike?”
”yes, but it’s a steady windy”

was like slope soaring as all as all it could do was figure 8’s into the wind. First time I tried turn toward the runway it almost got behind the deadline. Wind from north, east / west runway. Was a fun 7 minutes with the taxi after landing being the most interesting part.

Sure seems like this when i fly !

Maiden +3 late today with my F-15. Really like how it handled and performed.

I finally went and did a little flying today in between rain showers and 12 mph winds and came Midway across the runway rather then down the runway and did a hard left bank turn at low bc altitude and a big gust of wind blew and caused me to drop and spin in the ground and snapped a wing lose. I haven't even checked to see how bad it is but think I can fix it. But hey I did get to fly some.

Time flying is better than time at the office .....

[Pauly]

That is fact my friend! That's what I told my wife. I know had at least a 100 flights on my Pandora.

[bob_stan]

Got two flights on my Waco and 4 on my PT-17 in a gap between rain showers. I think I have finally figured out how to land correctly. I had read many times about using throttle not elevator for glide slope adjustment but just didn't grasp it. Now I think I have it. Old dog and new tricks :).

[rifleman_btx]

Got 3 on the A10 and FA18, and two each on the P38 and tigercat. Very awesome day today. Video of F18 to come little later.:)

[rifleman_btx]

My Pandora! I did something I should of and hardly ever do. It was windy as it could be with black clouds above and came head on did a real hard left bank at a real low altitude and got a hard gust of wind and it threw it hard and nosed down and did a spiral roll on the ground. If I was higher it would of been no big deal. Just one of them things. I think I can fix it if not no big deal just order some more wings and back in the air. I may do that any how because I'm not to comfortable with the wings patched up. I know the carbon rod snapped. I haven't really checked it out. It had started raining as soon as it happened so I packed up and left.

Is that 70 KM or MPH? That's the only thing I hate about the GPS meter I have. Its the one MRC has SkyRc. I wish it could switch to MPH and Feet for altitude.

[rifleman_btx]

I had mine switched, long ago I downloaded software for it to change it to mph. It is indeed the skyrc gsm-010. I think the battery is going south, next time I will wire it in with the receiver.
