Went out and flew the Telemaster twice today...and on the second flight, 'it' happened.

I was 100% completely comfortable from take off to landing...no nerves, no jitters...good, solid takeoff, smooth turns, couple of nice loops, very comfortable figure 8's, and then a controlled, smooth, and straightforward approach, with a level smooth landing right down the center line.

It's official...this hobby is now more fun than humans should be allowed.

Just had to share...

CONGRATS!! I had that happen to me one day, but i settled on it being because i put a Super Tigre G-51 on a trainer. I will be flying the wing on my ugly stick with the 40 la. Can't wait to get on the sticks this weekend

Nice going -- it's quite a rush.

So why did you only fly twice? Didn't want to press your luck?

Well done. It will get a little easier every time and in just a year or two the constant shaking will go away too. You can't fool us.

LOL...yeah, I figured 3rd time might be the charm for the RC Gods.

No doubt about it... It's time to crash

I'll give you some good advice. Never, ever, ever say --- "Just one more flight" --- If you ever say that at the field, immediately pack up everything, drive home, put all your planes away, and go to bed, but do not fly. No matter what. Ole Murphy and his laws love that saying. As soon as you say that and fly, your plane is doomed. Just pull out the trash bag now, cause it's going down.

Isn't it funny how often " just one more flight " does us in. Even after 25 + years I hate to even think it under my breath. ENJOY !!!! RED

LOL

Well, as it turns out, apparently it's also dangerous to cheat the RC Gods out of their opportunity....they'll remember you the next day.

A few more details over in my 3 lessons thread, but the plane is back together already and recovered, so we should be flying this weekend.

Having learned from experience I now always schedule two more flights and cancel the second

Works for me!
