AZ - Chandler Bowl DLG team!

helisfreak · Sep 18, 2009, 12:17 AM

Hey guys,

WE have a "Chandler Bowl" dedicated thread over in the Club forum. But I thought it would be better if we have a thread over for our DLG crew.

I guess here we can post our DLG picture and maybe have a wall of Fame!

I will slowly post throwing video of all our pilots. I got just this camera, so I'm trying my best. Please make sure you enable the "HD" mode on Youtube.

*note, we also have a video showing a Mini 29inch Blaster II out throw a Vandal....

Let start with George

That video is gorgeous Vu. That slo-mo is as smooth as silk

Oh man, it's even worse than I thought

Legs bent, no upper body twist, all arm, plane not level on release.

But now I know what to work on!!!

Sure.

Thanks for posting these guys. While I barely flew with you, it's nice to see a home field.

My next plan is to record people DLG from my RC Helicopter...

My dad was noticing a lack of "overhead" launch videos. It might be possible if one launches from near the backstop of a baseball field, with the camera mounted above.

On another note, I finally met up with Dirk to get some DLG pieces. It's gonna take some work to get these together, but with some patience, (and hopefully advice from those of you with building and repair experience), I should be able to get two flying DLG's out of the parts. My special thanks to both Guz and Shhhhh!

I picked up some 'glass and epoxy, but Royal didn't have any micro-balloons, and Ray at HH looked at me like I was speaking a foriegn language when I asked for them.

Does anyone know where there are micro-ballons in stock in town?

RotorCycle · Sep 26, 2009, 07:31 PM

I bought a tub of micro-ballons at Adventure.

Guz · Sep 27, 2009, 12:46 AM

Yep, I saw a bottle of micro balloons at Adventure last weekend, it might still be there.

carlsoti · Sep 27, 2009, 12:49 AM

Does anyone know if they're still open on sunday afternoon?
