Belt's tight, set screw and pin's good, engine's rich... Fingers are cold, too! Flew in a lot of wind just few mins ago. Gusty, too! Winds from the south at 20. I kept that chopper in the air and corrected all the gusts!! ...till the end when my finger were too cold to correct it and...BOOM!



I'm using some fuel with less oil content so I kept it rich, when I get home I'll buy some better heli fuel and use this other fuel for my planes. Hehe, by the way just kidding about the boom, I landed it safely and took it in till my figers warm back up. Glad I had the hola-hoop on! I landed it a little rough but nothing neer a boom strike or a tip over with the T/G on.


Helis are a lot easier to fly in the wind! I fly my planes in this type of wind and allways have to be a step ahead of them! I have to be a step ahead of the heli, too. But instead of a wing tip dropping the heli only drops or climbs... Not much attitude change unless I'm close to the ground.


I'm starting to enjoy wind flying! Keeps you on your toes and makes things more interesting.... anything 25+ and I stay inside, though! I tried a 35 MPH wind once and almost lost my plane, That was the closest I've ever come to a total loss crash.


LONG LIVE VOLT WATCH!!
