Default RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D

You guys are having a little too much fun I think, Jack don't hold your breath on that fuel coming your way, I have 7 planes of my own to keep in nitro. Congrats on the new flight record Jack, and thats a truck load of fun you have there for sure.

Mr DownT,, this thread has been missing your antics of the Jack man, its good to have you back aboard, I know I already said it a few threads ago, but I mean it..

Well the twisted twist worked great today, it seems the 3 or 4 degrees of right bend added just the right touch to the offset of right thrust on the engine, I had the most amazing hovers I have ever had with the twist,[X(] maybe I should pile drive all my planes and re glue them back together,[>:] Oh wait, I already have...

we also, like every week, had 3 birds in the sky, thats a minimum for us actually, and there is nothing like the site of 4 birds all banking in formation, especially when we start bouncing off each other.

They predicted rain today and we got it, [&o]but we also were pounded on last week with rain, so we all said to the skys this week, so despite the 12 to 20 mph winds all day, and rain, we didn't care, we had a blast, I got in 4 flights with the twist and 5 with my bipe. the last flight was in a good solid rain. but the Twist handled like a champ. We did lose the Tiger II my cuz's plane do to a little showin off and an inverted flyby about 5 feet off the ground, well he messed up and gave it a little up instead of down in a small panic, and BLAM *** all I can say is it was a SPECTACULAR SMASH,[sm=surprised.gif][][X(] right on the end of the runway, we laughed our heads off. That was the only casualty of the day,

U-can do,, Katana, Ultimate Bipe, Giles 202, and of course the TWIST were the birds in the air today for us.

the only reason we left, was to go the the Not local hobby store in MA. when I brought two more victims who have never flown before there to get them hooked up. and lo and behold it was the hobby shops TENT Sale he has once a year,, AHHHHH,,, I didn't even know, I saw a new Twist just hanging out, and you would have to see this place to believe me on how much stuff he has. and it was all on sale, and I had NO MONEY [:@]

But my two Friends one being my friends father in law, Was like Rodney Dangerfield in back to school, I'll take one of these, 2 of those, whats that thing??, put it in the cart, Etc.. Etc.. he bought 3 planes, a super tote with all equipment included, engines, and then a complete plane fully loaded servos and all, retracts, Supertigre 51, hanging off the ceiling for $250 because he was afraid his son in laws plane would have been faster then his,, MAN,, talk about jumping into the Hobby. and the other guy bought 2 planes as well, I had enough money to get a foam Matt Chapman edge 580 for $20.00 so I did. now I can fly in my basement..

All In all It was a Fantastic Day for me as well, God I love this Hobby.
