Expect GREAT THINGS boys !
The C50 is pretty amazing and pretty easy to make it do some impressive moves.... the 140ex is a DODDLE !
You didnt actually think Ali won the Freestyle did you !? Oh no - that was entirely down the model...!! Ali was looking the other way didnt you notice !
I did a parachute landing with the model Ali now flies this time last year in Sittingbourne...About a force 4.... started about 500ft up and it took AGES to come down with the engine gently and quitely plopping away on idle.... left it right to the bottom for a tiny blip of power to make it move forward and she settled onto the grass a treat.
Same day Malc wanted a low slow knife edge shot. Well he got fed up of waiting for the model to reach him it was going do slow and at a good 45-50 degree high alpha k/e it lulled forward at a snails pace just a couple of feet off the deck.... Malc couldnt get the lens wide angle enough and as terrific shot as it was the wings, and back end where chopped off ! He reckoned he could have reached out and grabbed it..
Its an absolute PUPPY.... Oh, and Malc says he's gonna be upset with any of us who come upto or over 10lbs AUW ! He reckons 9.5 with the YS set up is quite easily achieveable...
