Default Funtana Fun Pile

today was a great day of flying untill the funtanas went in. Heres what happened.
Chris, Rick, and myself were all flying together. Chris went down for a low hover and Rick and I were going to join him. I look back at my plane and notice Rick coming head on at me, so i pull up. The plane does a Wall and stops right there. rick had nowhere to go and i am frozen in the air. he blows right through my left wing. Both planes Blow up and fall to the ground. heres a pic

to tell you the truth, no it didnt. IT SOUNDED AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they really blow up when they hit something because they are built so light. and it was only the 3rd flight for Ricks funtana, mine had been up and flying for half a year. I have a new one now and its up and flying. and so does Rick. we will be back at it again soon. we had a nother mid air with our Zagis today, but we were aiming for each other.

Sorry for the loss .. You haven't heard anything that sound awesome until you have heard a quickee 500 hit the side of a enclosed trailer at 139 mph.. It penetrated the side engin went clean thru and it the inside wall of oposite side, the plane decentagrated on impact. This took place at a fly in in Norfolk VA>
