A few photos from this evening doing some night flying with the Roban 800 Bell 222.

You certainly "produce" some of the best (if not the top) RC videos I have the pleasure to watch. And BTW, you're flying skills ain't too shabby either.

Been meaning to tell you for some time that your country is definitely one of my favorite places to visit. My wife's family is from Northern Spain (the Bosco ?? area if I remember correctly if that even is an area) and I got to spend 3 months (including Christmas and New Years) traveling all over Spain 6 years ago on our honeymoon. I've been lucky enough to travel most places in the world but Spain has to be in my top 3. Her 21 year old niece spent the last 2 years teaching in Madrid and just got back, but we all need to get back there ASAP (my wife even dreams of moving and retiring there-one of her more lucid ideas). Must be nice living and playing in a region of the world so great! I think your video's exude the essence of where you live. And to this day I still thirst for the Valencia Orange Juice I got to drink drums full while there-man, Florida OJ now tastes like gutter wash after Spain's OJ.

Sorry I wasn't able to join you live James, our clocks are all upside down here. Thanks for the shout out though, enjoyed watching the show over a (iced) coffee this morning.

That might be the greatest "something" of 2021. What an excellent way to kick off the year.

[Airguardian]

Gotta set the bar up high to motivate everyone to bring their best!

Happy and honoured that people is liking it so far!
It makes it even better the fact that it is a team effort, just wish we could get to fly together more often... sadly life gets in the way!


Maybe soon a Gripen/MiG/Hornet version?
:p

Thank you Hugh, I'm humbled by your words.
Although this time I didn't produce the video, my quad buddy did (Notice the video shared is to his youtube channel!), this is his edit (most ground video shots were taken by my dad though). He's not on Squawk so I shared it for him!
I made my own edits (extended versions) of these flights some time ago. ;)

Not everything is bright and shiny around here but I really don't see myself living anywhere else, so there is that. :p

My mother (rest in peace) was from Valencia!
And indeed the orange juice is great! ;)

Nice work, now for a night flight, no? One small suggestion, and I'm definitely no "model master" like most of the guys here, so I'm the last who should be making any "cosmetic suggestions". Get yourself some Foam-Tac Foam-Finish and fill in and sand down the channels where the LED light wires run, then repaint over them and it will look perfect. Of course I have to use buckets full of the stuff just to repair "pilot mishap" occurrences instead of on outstanding modifications like the ones you did!

I don't do night flight, I'm afraid I haven't enough skills to do so ^^
I'll take in consideration your advice and will look at this product! Didn't know about it, is it like a putty or something like that? I tried to hide wire in panel lines the most I can but yeah some are terribly visible I need to hide them more! :)
I agree the render looks outstanding but trust me it was simple modification only some led heat shrinking tube and wire to solder on rx plug :)

Yes it's like a putty you can fill in with, use something like a credit card to flatten out and even add some panel lines if you need to. I've also used various fillers from Home Depot but I think the Foam Tac Finish stuff is perfect for this type foam. You won't be disappointed.

Some of today’s action.
