Wow, you went out there today!

I contemplated it yesterday, but the gale force winds kept me away.

Yeah, Just got home. The Norlin racer was a hand full, I was getting it pretty well trimmed, then I managed to flick the power button off for a second and you know what? Quickie models at full speed don't like that. It did the prettiest full speed snap rolls I've ever seen. So I thought it might be good to turn the transmitter back on and land.

The Viper was a little better, the Nelson really screamed with a 8.8x8.75 in the frigid temps. Flew around and went home before the ICE storm started. Yes, Minnesota in January, fun ,fun
