Helga bails on flight #2
Finally got my Seagull Space Walker 2 maidened today. Flew 4 flights. The model is kinda squirrelly on the ground due to the smallish tail wheel. I'm running a TT Pro .46 in it and the engine performs quite well in this plane. Anyways, the arf comes with 2 figures for pilots/co-pilot, a male and female. I've affectionately called them, Helmet and Helga.
There was about an 8 mph wind with gusts up to around 15 mph. The space walker handled this breeze pretty well. It didn't get pushed around all that much. Anyways on my 2nd flight, I was about 60 to 100 feet high and noticed something fly out of the plane.
"Oh crap"!!!!! I hoped that I did't lose a servo or something . When I landed it, I found that Helga was missing. Maybe she got into an argument with Helmet? Or didn't like his flying so she jumped out!!!! She was sitting in the back seat. Maybe I'll learn how to glue the figures in better next time.
