Super Pics, Jac. Sounds like you had a great time. Was that a Cessna 150 anchored down in the background?

Jeff- Preflights have saved my butt more then once. Lack of them cost me a time or two There is no better habit to form then to preflight whatever you fly.

I went through 2 batteries this morning. For some reason my tail is pulsing. What's odd is that I hadn't flown since doing that loop video so nothing should have changed. I had to dial the gain down from 65 to 62% and that made it very loose feeling but stopped the pulsing. I got to look this over very good. Once the tail felt flyable I did manage some very tight loops, almost flips. Probably only took up 7 feet of air space doing them. But the tail just didn't want to hold properly so I set it down before smacking it up. I'm wondering if my tail shaft is sticky as the grass I fly from is a bit high and can choke the tail blades on spin up sometimes. Hopefully can go over it in the morning.

Hope everyone else is having a great weekend!
