the video is horrible but the flying is ok. Omp 540 profile with 46fx and a zinger 11.5x4 with cool power 15%.

Hope you enjoy it. I am working on a better way to get it in the computer.

Ok here it is. One eyed virgin camera man, and no good way to get the video in the computer. This is as poor as it can get but, A little more practice and i will have it down. 10 mins of video to get 3 min and 45 sec of footage.

Hope you like it.

da king, good footage. But I noticed a problem, that plane does not have carbon fiber gear. Adding the cf gear would definitely make that video closer to the 10 department. (I knew you could take the harrassment <grin>). In all honesty, good job and thanks for posting your video. Jeff Williams [email protected]

Thanks ! It will take a lot more than just gear to get the video up to snuff.


Any .45 should do. Build it stock and put a little wood in the fuse at the cg and where the aftermarket landing gear goes. I didnt put it in mine and now im stuck with the wire gear.

I didn't beef mine up either when I built it but I am did this instead. I drilled a 3/8" hole where the bottom screw goes and epoxied in a 3/8" hardwood dowel, then just drill that for the gear bolt. We will see how well it holds

Default HOLY COW!!

Thats the kind of flying I want to do.
How do I join this club of wild flyers??
Ordering one of those next week.
I may not be ready to take this kind of step yet, but those videos have me pumped up to make learning my goal.

There is a neat thread called profile people and non profile people that talks about how people who fly "NORMAL" airplanes react to the profiles.

Default Servo Placement

So no one has mentioned that your servos are on top of the wing. Any reason in particular?
