Yea, but Golf?



As for winning or losing, between heli's or wings, those guys just didn't have what it takes. They were flying there wings against a much smaller ship and not really getting the size difference down. Personally I'd like a crack at it, nothing like wiping 300 bucks of Heli out with a 40 dollar airplane, then flying away. But I understand your goal.

We have a club member with camera 3d camera mount on his electric heli kit. He flys while another person runs the camera using a video downlink for locating pictures. Even then it's a good bit of teamwork for him and the operator to get synched together so that he can bring the camera to bear, attempts without the locator camera are just pathetic. On the occasion that the camera IS pointing in the right way, the cutting off of heads top or bottom makes it just rediculous. Having a camera man being able to say come left and maintain altitude works so much better. It's hard to be 'In the Cockpit' with one person, let alone two.

But, as long as you're not doing anything illegal are being safe and can afford to screw up, knock your self out. Just be careful.

Here, take a look at this full contact hit from SPADfest 08, it's towards the end of the TV show but before that stinkin witch. http://rcairplane.onlinestoragesolut...20Spadfest.wmv

I can't find the real good link of pictures from one of the midairs during combat, but Randy Hodges gave this newcomer an engine and I helped getting it on and running with the guy. They midaired in SSC combat locking the planes together and took probably 30 seconds to come down in autorotation mode one or both of the engines still running and throwing streamer in the air. If I find it I'll post the pictures. Not only is THAT real combat, it was bootifull and although I was quite happy with making the news with my demolition derby style hit, The CPD taking out RH hit is the one I love the most.
