Super Mod & DEAL KING!
Went to the field with
450 pro
Vibe 50
P-51 nitro
Start with 450 pro:::: spool it up,,, go to idle up and I hear like an explosion.. Next thing I realize heli is in the ground... BLADES EXPLODED!!!!!! Someone got it in video... I saw it later ... Asked him to share it.. Hopefully he will... Literally both blades exploded out of the head withinh 20 seconds.. I had a failed auto a while back..checked over everything looked ok... Blades might have taken it harder that I thought on soft soil... Well... All shafts are bent.. ALL! So that was a fail within 10 minutes of entering the field..
Take the p-51 set it up, fuel her. And start her up... Beautiful startup.. Tuned her... Awesome.. Get on the runway... Takeoff abd realize its still tail heavy... Anywaz... Still I keep it up... Flying around trimming it... Sounds amazing!!!! Time to land... Three attempts... Finally get her slow enough, abd realize u am out of runway... Punch the throttle... Being tail heavy it stalls then gains airspeed then a wing stalls and noses into the ground... Ughh!!!
Found out that the plane is pretty strong ...
Inspected it fully opened it..
All I lost is a prop and a nicked fuel line... Everything else is like untouched!! That Was a happy thing but I got laughed at too.. Heehee .. I laughed with cause stuff happens.
Vibe 50: this one disappoints me in a whole different way... Last trip to the field flying three tanks I realize the engine came down too hot ... I turn the engine I have very less compression... Cane home last weekend and checked abd the ring was shiny shiny.. Lol meant there was a leak and engine was leaning out. Autopsy revealed that the tank grommet / seal was not doing very well.. Well.. Got my kinetic's engine out and threw it into the vibe... Was very hopeful to fly it as I had worked on it all week.
The engine had too much compression and the drill just won't turn it. I was like WHAT!!! Either the engine was hydrolocked or the drill's battery was low.. Whatever it was tried and tried couldn't get it to turn... Defeated I returned home.... Saddest day ever !!!!
Man! Lots of work to do now. :/
Anywaz.. Part of it... How was your day... ?
