Default Projeti lives :)

Sorry to make you think that that was my Projeti. The one in the 'crash' forum belongs to my flying partner - KevMan. We both got Projeti's at the same time.

Mine has been crashed again since it's maiden flight but thankfully the wings are still joined together. I'm thinking about retiring it and getting some practice with a coreflute mugi before I launch the Projecti again.

It was quite funny watching Kev's Projeti go down, there was the scream of the 10 cell speed 400 as the plane disappeared behind a line of trees and seconds later a loud "whoooahh" from a practicing soccer team that it crashed 30 feet away from. We were all lucky that day.

The Projeti was supposed to be my independant practice vehicle. I'm being instructed with my 2m glider by someone who when I'm struggling to make any progress into a head wind can bring my glider back as though it's attached by a piece of string. I guess I just wanted to fly before I could flap.

Again, thanks for the interest,
Cheers,
Evan.
