I know , what's this world coming to when you can't just go , fly a little and just enjoy the day . No some ****er has to come out of nowhere and ruin your day !! 



Bryan 

Btw it's going to take a new fuselage .

I think anything above -6 inches below surface is an airplane magnet. Really glad you had a good time with your grandson those times don't last long enough. Would like some thoughts on the 190 when you get a chance.

RE: Sun n Fun with my Grandson

Farmflyer I have ran three batteries thru it . Each one got better . First thing is I love the size of it because it has good presence in the sky . Very manuverable will do anything you want . I did forget to trim the gear skirts which gave me some nose over at the end but will be fixed next time out . 
To me I know it's not a Freewing but it's also not the price . I am very happy with the Dynam price points and will continue with them . I have the Waco , Grand Cruiser and now the F190 . I will purchase more .

Thanks Bryan glad to hear good points on the 190 looks a lot like my flyzone just bigger. Looking just in case I wreck it. I like Dynams also we have 5 2x mustangs one becoming a Gunfighter the Tiger Moth Spitfire and 109. All take a little work but for the money they are worth it. I'm really impressed with the performance of the 109 and Tiger Moth.

RE: Sun n Fun with my Grandson

I agree completely with your assessment of the Dynams, especially the 109 and one of my new favorites, the Tiger Moth! Both outstanding flyers. For the money, I don't think you can go wrong with the Dynams. In addition to the two above, I have the PBY Catalina, the Gee Bee Sportster Y model, the Hellcat, and the T-28. All are outstanding planes, well engineered, and above all, fly well.

I don't currently have the FW-190, but after watching H64's recent video, I might have to correct that! Nice flying too there Hippie. I am glad that one went better for you than the maiden on your FW 190! :D

Sorry about the jet and the crapper though, that one sounded painful! :s

Its always something, isn't it!!
The wind tried like heck to get my Pandora the other day, and of course, she headed right for the nearest telephone pole!!
Fortunately, I had two things on my side, one, the wind was so strong that the flags on the school were straight out, two, I was flying into it, gave her a shot of power and got her out of the way and over the parking lot, then did an almost vertical landing, grabbed her and got her into the back of the truck before she blew away!!!
I call that a learning experience, no damage done, although someone dressed up in a **** house costume came running out and was trying his damnedest to knock her out of the air.  Once she was secure, I ran after the guy and caught him, opened the door and there staring me right in the face was...................
CAPTAIN MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Gman be very careful around Cappy Mike , you never know what that rascal will be up to !!! 


Loneflyer you know the damn tree just jumped up and snatched that FW right into its grasp !! But me and a chainsaw had the last word tho :D! 

How do you like the T-28 ? I'm looking at it very hard .

I really like the T-28, it is a good flying plane, but it is not the most powerful of the Dynam lineup, and doesn't like winds over 10mph. On a calm day, it flies fantastic. Very stable, power enough for loops, rolls, etc, all the fun stuff. Landings are really easy, come into the wind and just a light flair before touchdown to get the mains down first, and you will have no issues. Careful of crosswinds during flight, they will really bounce the wings pretty good, but that is about the only negative thing I can say about it.  I did add flaps to mine, but really don't need or use them since she slows down well. Flight times are in the 5-10 minute range.

I think if you upgraded the ESC to handle 4 cell power like the rest of the warbird lineup, it would be an even better bird!
