Well, the Cub fuselage is just too far gone for me to WANT to repair...and have it look somewhat decent
I am just going to bite the bullet and order a new fuse, since the wings and tail feathers are in perfect shape.

Crash NO Burn....


Well, in trying to learn Idle Up mode (Stunt)... I knew I probably would forget at some point. Dumb Thumbed my Blade 400 right into the ground today. It was really windy, probably 8-12 with gusts up in the mid to upper 20's. The wind helped just by making altitude adjustments a constant bother. I was about 6 ft off the ground and a gust had me going up so I "lowered the throttle" (as in forgot about idle up)...just for a split second.

Already have that thing fixed. New landing struts, tail shaft, main shaft, feathering shaft, blades, flybar, boom winglet, main drive gear and tail boom and new gears in one servo. Tail blades are nicked up but I forgot them. Good as new!

I did have a lot of fun and flew several in my fleet learning all the time!

My only regret is that I was really thinking about trying a loop and would have prefered to crash trying that!

u bet! Thanks for the help with the Micro Bipe and the F-35. I would not be flyin without your assistance!

The bipe is hands down the most joyful, slow, and easiest to fly micro I have put in the air. I dont have any pics yet so bring your cam next time you go to the field!

The Jet did not fly, realized I needed a 12" deans extension to reach the battery tray so I got one on the way home from PCMA today. I would hope to get it up tomorrow...it is late, I guess I mean later today... Anyway, let me know when you want to go and I will come fly with ya.

I am out. I have had a tough couple nights. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ time.
