All three planes came home in one piece, it was gusty crosswinds and the field has melted to a sheet of ice with bumps and ruts, and the snow burms have become one foot tall jagged teeth waiting to eat your airplane if you dont land spot on... The supersportster flew the best and only took one click up and two clicks left to trim.. The majestic took two clicks up and three clicks right to trim, and the cap232 took two clicks left and three clicks up to trim... Out of all three, the sportster flew the best and the cap flew the worst (squirrelly) I had the throws set way too hot, after I reset them to a lower throw, it flew okay.... I love computer radios. .... Sadly the 3D suffered damage, I broke a prop, but when your spinning a 16X6 there isnt much ground clearance..LOL.... "Thats my story and Im stickin to it" Actually, it was floating into a perfect landing right before touchdown I pulled up too much and it dropped hard from about 3 feet, spreading the landing gear like spaghetti legs, striking the prop on the ice and breaking both tips..[sm=thumbdown.gif] But the ice suffered just as much, there was 3 one inch deep large chop marks from the torque of the YS. Everything seems to be okay with the plane, but I need to check it out before I fly again[:-] All and All, it was a fun day........Oya here's some pic's.... JW
