ahhh, i had the best day to day the last time i flew my c140 was at hasting and that was a while ago. I flew my C140 to day and on the first flight in a month the last time i flew it at about 6 metres high but today i did a harrier 1 metre off te ground.i then did a torque roll very low (easy) and sussed the schedule for the the comp tomorrow in 2 flights.

Kane! I was waiting for you at Wanstead! lol........

ow yeh i also did harrier landings

Kane! Best of luck for you and your brother! I was going to come but decided against it,

best of luck to all who compete.

thanks shahid[8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D]

Ive acutally havent managed to get mine to wing rock properly. just wont do it dont know whats nasty about the elevator to harrier though? May require a little bit of correction to counteract the increase in revs of the torquey YS.

strange about steering to the right. mine tacks dead straight.

have found that it does require a fair amount of up in the hover though, but can do an awesome BIG tailslide including half a roll with the C of G right back now. shame cant do it everytime though!

anyway good luck everybody tomorrow at the freestyle comp. ive dislocated my thumb tonight so flying should be interesting[&:]

luke are you going to the comp tomorrow and to get best performence out of your ys put a 16x8 apc

Sprink... wing rock in harrier and elev - nope this should not happen unless its very windy...

I would like a list of Capiche (50 or 140 ) fliers for the freestyle event.... this is what I have so far;

good night got to go to bed cos a capiche pilot needs his sleep

Archie, Mike didn't make it, but Nathan FJ ended up flying Luke's as well as Luke. The C140 certainly did excel today. One C50 in the Advanced class as well.

one C50 in advance d? who was that ?

Well the neoprene spacer in bettween the u/c and plane body of the C140 seems to make a big difference in absorbing landings. harrier landings no probs at all now

Nice flying Luke, i liked your flying to music to, but it had to be much lower to score big points, if the judges dont think you nearly crashed at least 4 times in a flight they aint impressed. also your "Halo factor" is not fully developed but this wil come with time

Nathens flight to music was realy good too.

well done all!!

Should have been a trophy for most improved pilot

Luke you would have won it. Good job. Alot of thought in your flight to music [8D]

Nice group photo

duno wot you mean about that. but talkign of elevator and harrier landings....................did you all see kane or adams or boths landing after music round[X(] thump! no flare lol

are you talking about the landings with the synergys we had nly flown them twice.

Adam, Kane you two put up a spirited go for your age [8D]

Language between you was very funny also. When calling for each other

Hope you attend next year lads welldone

thanks baron uk[8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D][8D]

Kane you flying at Wanstead this Sunday or Saturday? My UC might come by then, we could fly together or something.

Congrats for you and Adam too.

Kane, Adam, no one pointed out to you yet that your under carriages are on the wrong way round? They are supposed to rake backwards, not forwards

weall told them

Yep but you forget the supreme ( I meant stall turn not snap roll) being told them to put them on back to front

ali put them on backwards not us but my dad says it will be better and stronger on a harrier landing having it forwards.
by the way whos going/flying at Hop farm.
