Default My Corona!

Hey guys, just got my Corona up and going. I have about a year of fixed wing craft, thought I'd try a heli. The Corona was a blast to build, and now even better to fly! I'm on my fifth flight, and can just about hover the entire flight. I'm teaching myself to fly it. I don't think it will be a probelm, I seem to be catching on quickly. If ya want to get into helis...the Corona is the way to go!

The foam is in case of a tail boom strike on a "not so soft" landing. The Corona has long blades that flop up and down easily. On a hard landing they can hit the tail boom and dent it. People have also put plastic tubing on the inside of the boom to help dents from forming.

Hard landings...I don't plan on having any of those.
Yeah right.


I pick up the ship tomorrow from the hobby man.
