My Feedback: (2)

i went to the broyhil main office in lenoir sunday. i took 4 planes. two 4 channel 1/2a and a 30 size ultimut bibe and my sons kadet .one of my scratch built 1/2a planes on its second voyage. decided it want to roll hard left. nothing i could do would stop it.and it hit pavement nose first.so i whiperd a bit. and thout i would try another.so we fired up my sons kadet senoir. and we had a good time.buy this time unexspected freinds arive to see my planes and a fellow modeler and they all wanted to see my bibe fly.and its been 3 months since i last flew any thing.so i fierd up the 46 on the bibe. and it took off like a rocket like it usely does. i made three passes and a few rolls to get the fill for her again when i lost visual in the sun. and when i finaly got where i could see it again. i couldnt tell which end was up. and it hit the ground hard. kinda ruin my hole day.

Don't worry, I've had days when I've gone out to fly and felt somewhat less than 100%. After one short flight I've realized that I'm a menace to my models on that day and have gone home again.

The one occasion when I carried on anyway resulted in one instant re-kit of the model due to dumb-thumbs.

I think that part of being able to fly well is recognizing when you can't fly well (for whatever reason) and having the courage to stop before it's too late :-)
