RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D Part II - Thread Continuation
GPutt33,
Man, that sucks. I can see your pain there on the table. Essh. Ive had a TT for a few weeks now. Its my second gas plane and I love it. Great flying plane... I will tell you this lol.
- Last week at our field I was coming towards the runway, so I flipped her over inverted to do an inverted pass... hmm. One second she was flying nice about 10-15ft up, next minute with the
wrong stick input... a LOUD BRRRRRRR!!!!!! I sticked it into a lawn dart dive at probably 30mph. Instinctively, I pushed the stick the opposite way. lol, and it flew into a loop. up. and out. I couldnt believe
my eyes or my heart that stopped beating. Man, I thought my two week old TT was done. First attempt at a runway inverted pass. I think I wont do that again. Now the TT is running on its Second Life...
- However my buddy, who had less luck than me. Brought out his FunJet moments later. Flew it 2mins around the field and up. It flew in the distance and started looping. I said dude, bring it back. He said, I'm trying!!!! I think his radio or battery got disconnected? So this thing went off in the distance full throttle... 120mph loops... and next thing we knew it was a qtr mile away. Bad thing was, the flying field is next to an old over grown land fill. Nothing but shoulder high overgrowth for 100 acres. Once you pass the first embankment, theres no coming back. - He had a total loss! This was his second plane ever. I feel so bad for him. That really sucks. FunJet is now living in the land fill. - Finders Keepers!!! - Bad thing is he lost about $400 out there... ekkk! "Word to the wise, strap down your batteries guys!"
