    That job is getting in your way so get your butt home so you can come to NEFI and fly-fly-fly ! ! LOL
    Flying the larger gas plane so much has really messed up my war bird flying. Seriously, when I fly a war bird now I feel like damn this is hard, you got to really fly it. I need to get the Mustangs and Corsairs back out more..

      New stuff. Sorry guys still gassing it. Promise I will get my electric birds out again. Just have not had the time and the gasser is really quicker to prep an fly.

          Aussie champ Chris Brislin at my club recently. Nice bloke, did a little 3D clinic for us 3D pilots. Not bad considering it was a bit windy and a borrowed airframe on the day.

              Short flight this morning from the house. A little bit of fog added some pucker factor at times.

                          My Red Tail is back in action after a hiatus so to speak. Had a slight problem with it today. The left wheel was not turning freely due to me putting glue on the c clip that of course ended up on the wheel shaft, that caused friction. Also a gremlin apparently had my elevator trim out of wack because I almost nosed it over again and when I did get it in the air I had to up trim the hell out of my elevator.. I ended up flying with the back up stock spinner and prop set up because the first attempt was a nose over and broke prop. Not sure if I can even prop mod the new set up. Anyway, after I got the kinks worked out, I flew it. It flew great and sounded great. Enjoy

                            Flying the yellow nose as the sun is starting to set. The camera picked up the gun flashes on strafing runs, not easy to see but its there.

                                Looks good Ben !
                                I loved the size of the 1700 mm when you had them at Nefi last year, funny that there aren't more guys posting about them.
                                Guess you have the field my friend !

                                    That is a nice flight. That A-10 has some pop to it. Love the vertical on take off, rolled into loop and make a pass. That was cool

                                      :)Ben, I felt the urge to take off and roll immediatly into a vertical loop, because most of my fellow club members watching, they fly the 3D gassers and do that 95% of the time when they take off.... Wanted to show them this EDF has plenty of power!!:Cool:

                                          Here's one of my latest vids featuring on board footage of my Staufenbiel Red Bull Edge 540! Now that school's out for summer I have my field all to myself! (Me & a handful of buddies.) I was especially pleased with how the music synched with the takeoff.
