Almost three years to the day that the last post was made in this thread, lol, so I am reviving it! I have not flown my Stinger 2 for about 2.5 years because I got the heli on my brain disease, and also had worsening cataracts. First planes not to be flown due to lousy distance vision was the small fast ones like the Stinger 2! Well, I had cataract surgeries in both eyes in February this year and now am 20/20 in both eyes again! Holy moly I love being able to see so good again, and now I can bust out the small fast planes again. So the last few days I had to overhaul the YS63 in the plane because it had no compression due to stuck push rod sleeves. Got it sorted out and replaced the flight pack with a new one. It was off to the races today, and I forgot how much fun this plane is, especially with the revitalized YS63 pumping out power to spare like when the plane was new. Had two good flights after a first one to sort out tuning the needles. Some pics on a perfect day in the PNW:
