I find videos of winch launches very impressive. But nothing beats being there in person and seeing how quickly the plane goes from being on teh line, down into the bucket and then gains 50% of altitude off the mono. All on a relatively small bosch electric motor.

Plus the sound of those moldies doing speed runs!

Your link is broken or something. After a few seconds of loading, the normal QT logo changes to a logo with a broken film. After that, nothing happens.

You might have to update your Quicktime player.

I did notice that the launch has been shortened as in the toss has been removed.

Hey there!

No, unfortunately I got the plank bug again right after I got the heli so now I have one wall in my garage full of heli’s and two walls full of planes. I need another wall……

Your son looks like a pilot already! Great picture! Going to be getting him started on the simulator soon? :D

My girl loves to watch me fly and already wants to be my mechanic. I’m showing her the ropes and giving her plenty of subjects to work on. She will be stiff competition for her brother!

Here is mine at age 1.5

These are the best years! ;)
