Glad that worked for you!
I have migrated this habit to other planes as well and often bring them to the field in the foam box, very convenient! :)

BTW, just did my Raptor maiden today, that I got taking advantage of the 'End of year Awards' prize that I got!
Thanks one more time to everyone that voted for me! :D

Been wanting vectored thrust for some time and Air Guardian's videos convinced me to get the Su-35. I didn't appreciate the size of this jet until I got it out of the box. Huge shout out to
RC4ever for the tips video on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sHVKNWVwDI). With the flying stab and lower fins it is a challenge to move and store. Used the box to move it from storage to field.

AG. Quality production. Was there a moment where you began to break character in the opening sequence? Anyway, as a wise Starship Captain once said, "Most legends have their basis in fact." Bravo Zulu, Sir. Best, Steve

Thanks guys!
Now that would be something to dream about... shooting model aircraft 'practical' sequences for a Hollywood-class production, wow!


If the nerdiness is well received may do more of it in the near future... It takes quite some extra effort, gotta say! ^^

Better than watching the news!

Just a few Pics from yesterday of my F-4 with the 6S 12 blade inrunner flown for the first time on SMC 8100's (used to fly it on the SMC 6200's-great flying but only 3:50 in flight time). Still flies outstanding with that battery but now I'm up to 5:20 in flight time on the 8100's, Oh Yah!!
Got to use a friends camera set-up for photos and videos, sure beats the hell out of my phone. Hopefully I'll be able to use his equipment a few times in the future! Also posted these in a couple other threads, so forgive me for splashing them all over, just some of the better pictures we've gotten after having to use a phone all the time.

Went to fly today... way to celebrate Xmas properly!

Merry Xmas!!

Looking good, if they had made this without the retracting wings as a simpler lighter, fixed wing version with wings in max wingspan mode I would have been tempted.

I remember years ago seeing one just like as you described. But I can't place where I seen it. This one I had been eyeballing for years. Finally had the means to pull the trigger.

My new Freewing F14 maiden flight 12-21-2021. The full scale F14 maiden flight 12-21-1970. My top speed on maiden was 114mph (gps) that was with the 9 blade 80mm inrunner 1900kv systems installed.

Thanks for the awards today (on behalf of Tuckie and myself) and thanks everyone that voted for our videos!


Have a new, fresh, right-out-of-the-oven air to air video as our deepest thanks!

Some excellent footage from the RC Geek of my 500 size Sikorsky H-5 flying at Bomber Field USA, painted after The Bridges at Toko-Ri:

I saw the footage earlier today. That H-5 looks great.
