Hi Whirly-Girl,

Great pix!!
Since the sun has finally come out in New England, maybe I can snap a few pix of my fleet.

I'm still amazed that I could go from one heli to seven! :lol: Okay, one hanger queen (piccolo).

The hanger, currently, holds: two trex's, shogun, 3dpro, fp elite, fp elite beltdrive. I choose not to think about the cost (he's is into vintage vette's so I'm okay) but there is always something to fly :mrgreen:

Cheers,
Leslie

Hi All,

Hey, Kjfly!! I just saw Tjride's picture of his bird. Great job, so I have to ask. Where's your pictures :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers,
Leslie

very cool I have one lonely Trex450X that I fly. I think I am holding that one in my avatar pic. If not it looks just like that one but with a blue canopy. :)

Maybe I will get more. I was thinking about getting a Blade CP to fly inside when the weather isn't nice.

Hi Jetgirl,

I have a couple small birds (hummingbird fp's) for indoor flying. They are a hoot! They help keep the skills up when the weather won't cooperate. In my gallery on RR I have a couple videos of me flying in my basement.

I don't think it's possible to have too many birds :wink:

cheers,
Leslie

Well Leslie,

I have to say you are very good at flying in a small space. You did very well with the video as well. I liked the second attempt even better. Nice music and such.. :noteworthy

I can only hope I can get to that level in my flying. :wink:

Practice...Practice...Practice

Oh Yeah, Jeanette--- Nice Fleet you have there :cool:

Wow Whirly-Girl what a fleet!!! I love the shot of the TRex "tucked" under the tail boom of the big boy.......you forget how small they are when that is all your used to flying.
:lol:

Leslie you have a fleet too!..........what a combo......Vets and Helis!!!
:thumbs-up2:

Jetgirl.......don't feel bad we only have 1 TRex each also! Just think there will be a day when we tell someone about our "fleet".......you can tell we're the noobies here............we do have 2 electric planes but I haven't tried flying them yet, just getting wet with the helis (WATTAGE Tubby Cubby and Virus ARF), maybe someday.
:banana

I'll have to stick on a pic of our fleet...........

Oh Leslie.........I watched your videos from the basement.........too cool......excellent handling in a small area!

Hi All,

Smirk, yes Vettes are cool. I had always rolled my eyes when a flat bed truck came down the driveway with some hulk of a car. I have a new appreciation for his 'hobby' :lol: :lol:
He spends ten's of thousands of dollars to bring these derilects back to life, my hobby remains in the hundreds. Hence the 'fleet' :roll: It actually works out very well, he gets a kick out of me buzzing him when he works in the driveway.

I can also guarentee I will never get a vacumn for my birthday or anniversary :D Heli parts are always on the list!

Oh, and TJ, you're right! Practice, Practice, Practice. The New Hampshire winters are long so you have plenty of time to work on it :wink:

Cheers,
Leslie

Okay, let's change the shorts to a skirt then, add a pony tail, and a bracelet. HA HA!

Leslie, I just saw the video project you did over on RR. Nice flying in the tight spaces! Forward, backward, nose-in, pyros...I'm impressed girlfriend!!! Keep it up!
