First Flight
Hey Guys,
I got a Boomerang a while ago with a JR radio (6ch) and an OS AX46. I have flown a little electric plane before, but other than that no flying experience. I was on here a while ago asking about stuff and people said go to a club. Well I went to a club, but because I recently lost my job I couldn't afford to join, and it's on Sunday anyway, which is when I play soccer! Anyway, after FINALLY fixing all the problems I decided to try and fly it (not at a club). Well it took off well and I really enjoyed it for about 2 minutes, but then I realised how fast the darn thing was and I said to my mate "I've gotta get this thing on the ground". Unfortunately I tried, but it came so fast down the strip I wanted to land on that I just couldn't do it. Anyway, ended up putting it into an olive bush. I had to climb about 10ft to get it out. Thankfully it was only the wing that snapped. So it is a lot cheaper than it could have been. To any noobies reading this...PLEASE go to a club....I know that when I get my plane fixed, I will DEFINITELY be going to the club to learn how to fly!!! If people would like to comment on my stupidity, you're more than welcome. But it's definitely a fantastic motor, and they're great fun!!! They travel VERY far VERY quickly though...it's astounding!!!
Cheers
