    PZ, Ouch, :Scared: I will check out the B-17 forum and ask for advice from Mr. B-17 (Hardway) when I do the build later this summer. Gotta build and fly it as I've dreamed it since I first built a 1/72nd for my Dad when I was a kid. Best, LB
    Last edited by Elbee; Mar 25, 2019, 11:07 AM. Reason: I just checked and I bought the Freewing B-17 not the HK version. Sorry for the misinformation. I am looking forward to this build.

      Hi Elbee, it is the Hobby King 1875mm B-17 V2. Fun plane, great size! I hope Freewing comes out with a new version of similar size...

            Day 980: Had just put a couple flights on the FT Viggin and an ambulance pulled up and asked if they could land a helicopter here, I said of course you can ;)

                              Actually I'm so blessed to have a runway right across the street from my house, I run an extension cord from my front porch across the road and have my two Hyperion chargers plugged in ready to go, so me and my buddy just charge and fly, the L-39, A-4, T-45, F-4, Eurofighter and the other grey F-16 stayed in the shop...........:)

                              But one day if and when the high speed rail does come through here, I will lose this runway to them, so I enjoy every minute I can until then,............High Speed Train............:P:P to you.:Crying:

                                        LOL yeah I was so concerned about those soccer goal posts in the field it messed with my normal glide slope tracking...I was just happy it didn't go for the Bucking Bronco dance!

                                        I'm also going to adjust the camera location. Not my favorite spot.
