Hey again Simon,

...excellent control - you have the knack - must be your (as Brian says during his video) "meticulous" way of baby steps to learn nose-in!!
I must agree with him when he said "I am very proud of his hand-eye [coordination].....Simon is starting to spank me when it comes to nose-in...but not for long!" All bets are off now[sm=devious.gif]

You have got good while I wasn't looking mate[sm=tongue_smile.gif] A little more stick time will get rid of the tentative nature at the end of your figure-8s when you turn towards yourself - don't worry about that[sm=49_49.gif] The aileron control on the single-direction turns is tricky mate! I can get a T-Rex 450 in Clearview sim to do nice smooth nose or tail-in funnels - I hope this translates to the real model![sm=wink_smile.gif]

On the purchase & wait front: I just bought the [link=http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320594818680&ssPageNam e=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1890wt_754]Hobbywing Pentium 40A ESC[/link] as I don't think I can wait without knowing when HobbyKing will stock the Turnigy Plush 40A. I am still waiting for them to restock the [link=http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10113]HobbyKing 401B[/link] gyro......]
