Woot!
So, today was a fairly calm day... bit of wind but nothing too threatening.
Took her out and CAREFULLY preflighted. I am flying from a dirt field which is a subdivision that they just started building, so there are paved roads but no houses yet. Great place but the ground is a little rough.
I throttled up gradually, fighting to keep her in a straight line ... and .... rollout! Got her into the air, made a couple of circuits around myself and actually put her down on the wheels!
Well it nosed over after but wow I got it into a controlled landing right side up.
To top that off, I did it twice!
Sorry to ramble off a story you guys have all heard a million times before, but I am so excited and can't wait to fly at a real field that wont be so hard on my bird next time round.
On top of that good news, I actually found out about an all-electric club just down the road.
Thanks for the encouragement gang!
I never tire of reading posts like this. Good work! [8D]
