Had alot of fun yesterday and a huge thanks to Rob, Jim and family for putting on a great event. All of the raffle donations were great too and brought in alot of money for raffle tickets. It was scorching hot yesterday
.
I think my tank needs replaced so I'm going to order one today. It's the original tank that I've been using since Sept (or so) of 2008. Flamed out in the first two qualifiers and twice in the main.
Helicopter blades vs asphalt: Results are 2 to 0 in the asphalts favor
. I told him you don't have to get within 1" of the asphalt inverted...it's fine to be atleast a couple feet away, we're still amazed. He also crashed (slept
) at my place last night and we setup my heli radio and simulator. I'm going to practice on a sim for atleast couple months and get everything down before getting one. My brain has enought trouble with 2 channels let alone two or three times that
. I only practiced for 1/2 hour yesterday but was getting the controls down pretty good.
