Hi All!

It's been a while since I've updated my blog, so here's some videos of the fantastic new E-flite UMX Timber !!!

I'll put 'em up here in chronological order.....

First up.....obviously.....is the Maiden!

E-flite UMX Timber; Maiden Flight - 04SEP17 (4 min 56 sec)

As you can see, she'll handle a bit of wind, that's for sure !

Next, we tried her out on grass-field operations:

The E-flite UMX Timber; Grass Field Ops - 04SEP17 (4 min 26 sec)

And then we tried her out in slightly calmer conditions, while starting to explore the aerobatic capability of the model:

We finished day one with the UMX Timber with a nice flight at dusk....

Enjoy....

The next day, we brought her out for some more rough-field, desert work.....

E-flite UMX Timber; More Desert Ops! - 05SEP17 (5 min 16 sec)

I almost landed her in a bush.....DOH !!!

And these two are aptly titled.....Shenanigans !!!

E-flite UMX Timber; Shenanigans! - 06SEP17 (7 min 11 sec)

And...

E-flite UMX Timber; More Shenanigans! - 06SEP17 (8 min 11 sec)

BOTH videos feature lots of ZERO airspeed wind-surfing (and even some NEGATIVE airspeed !), Knife-Edge passes, and all sorts of very short, spot-landings

In the second video, I'm practicing what I call the "Timber Take-off, Loop and Land"....

You'll have to check it out for all the fun and frivolity !!!

Here's the UMX Timber flying in her natural environment...Low-n-Slow !

Here's the latest from the Mojave desert....throwing the Timber around in the rain !
