Never worn a kilt, don't like whiskey. Love Scottish smoked salmon mmmm

 

[Tony]

Don't like Whiskey? No wonder you don't live there anymore lmao. Maybe I should move there...

 

[Lee]

She's ready to go again. New blades from Thunder Tiger $50, Align metal servo wheels, CC Pro BEC, rerouted and cover wiring and i used 3M gel mounting tape under the BeastX.
I'm waiting for anew canopy from Fusino for christmas.
So far since changing to 8S i have flown twice and crashed twice. I don't even know how long I can fly on a battery, cause i haven't made it to the end of a pack yet LOL
Smooth easy flying for the next flight.

 

[breeze400]

Look great lee. Now what's the canopy look like?

 

[Tony]

Nice and clean bro. Hope it flies for a full battery this next time! But you need to rotate those wheels 90º to the left to bring the text around so you can read it. Yeah, a little OCD, but oh well lmao.

 

[stokke]

Good she's fit for fight again

Good luck on the test flight!

 

[Lee]

I wish i could Tony, but that was the closest to vertical for the ball links, no subtrim needed.
Thanks Marius, i'm heading out after breakfast.
The canopy will be a surprise. When my wife saw it, she said "YOU HAVE TO HAVE THAT" how could i resist.

 

[Tony]

Ah, I see what you are saying. I'm not skeer'd about using sub trim though hahahahaha.

 

[murankar]

Good luck. Can't wait to see it.

 

[Lee]

DON"T ASK

 

[stokke]

What?! Crash or failed to take off? WHAT?!!

 

[Lee]

I said don't ask LOL
Well not too bad, just feel stupid. You know when you start something, then have to stop and wait for parts. You always forget what stage you were at when you finished. Well I forgot to locktite the tail screws in.
Luckily all that happened was the tail opened up and disconnected the gears so the tail stopped. Had to auto without tail control. The only thing that broke was the already broken base plate lugs that hold the landing gear on. I had superglued them on as a temorary measure till my new ones arrive. They work well but just not for heavy auto landings.
My friend is CNCing me a new base plate, so should be back up and hopefully running tomorrow.
I have video of the whole incident. Up loading now.

 

[coolgabsi]

Ohhh my ghosh!! Whoops!! That sucks! Auto without tail control!! Good job!!

That's what I am practicing on Phoenix now.. Autos....!!

Fly safe!! have fun!

 

[Tony]

Damn dude, maybe you need to take this 8s system back out lmao. This was a perfect heli until you put this in. Glad the damage is not that bad.

 

[stokke]

Pirouetting auto - that's some skill man! Good job Lee

 

[Lee]

No piro, because as soon as i heard the noise, i flicked the throttle hold. If theres no power to the mains, theres no torque, so no spinning. The new Compass warp has no auto gear, so it was good practice for me

 

[stokke]

Piro schmiro - let's see the vid!

 

[Lee]

Well it took all day to upload. Something is wrong with our internet. Heres the video.

 

[murankar]

good save, very lucky. that could have ended a lot worse.

 

[Tony]

Fantastic save right there bro!
