heya .. well yea it was a good flying unit i was happy .....and i don't know if you read my other thread. i mentioned. but i flew with a 15x6 ! i needed to break in it more i guess when i left house the 15x6 would not do 7k... when i got home i checked it it was at 10.2 k !! so i tried a 15x8 9400 . i did not have a 16x6. tried a 16x8... 7850 ish i am going to try that tomorrow. should be way better. if it hates the 16x8,,,,,, ill get a 16x6 on the way home from Field....i have a 15x8 to put on it if i need to..

my wheelpants got jacked up on my lack of better judgment and the catch fence...wind was blowing hard and a few of my landing i could not get it to turn around....hence spas.....and damn fence...

i used epoxy and some fiberglass this eve..got emm back on. look uggo but way better then none....

and i will fly this covering till it all flys off then i will get it covered i guess..

all in all it flys well..........i was trying not to beat it on first day

and DiabloKid

that plane in my avitar is called a "diabolo"
it rocks has a 46FX on it (old one with front needle valve)i put bearings in it and helped it out

i have had it for 7+ years and it was at least a few years old when i got iyt from a buddy....i think it was a carl goldberg kit....

plane was built by an old man that was a perfectionist. took him months.. it is very very light and it rocks!
is my best quality plane i have ever had by far..has some "old school "stuff on it but is nice. i fly it with the JR 347 radio i bought it with!

i was messing with a "crazy max" today in budies front yard. its a trip to fly them cheesy electric deals.!...but ya can fly emm in the street!
