put in 24 flights today in the wind. great practice and testing with the new scoprion motors. that thing was so powerful that on the 24th flight on my 450, i snapped a spindal in air. :bawl the 450 feels so awkward now that i went back to it. so twitchy
24 flights in one day? ur a mad man dude. Does that mean you got your Trex 600 Nitro flying???
I got two Airhog Coaxial's today for my brother and nephew for Christmas. Gotta get them hooked!!!!

Man that does suck. Especially Long man I am really rooting for him. Hope the damages are small and the down time even smaller Long.
Jim crashed two helis in one day? Really really sorry to hear that Jim.
Rob I hope your damages are small too. I mean small in cost and time.

Even if Wes got them in stock I couldn't afford one. Plus, I highly doubt he'd just give me one.

Mike: you left your needle nose pliers on my table, I'll get em back to you next time I see you, or anyone that normally flys with you.

It's a Walkera 4#3. 4 channel FP heli. Looks like a lot of fun to toy around with in the house on rainy days:smokin:

Yep, its a simple Walkera 4#3 to keep me out of trouble when I get the bad urge to fly in the house. Its supposibly the same size as a PizzoZ, but 4 channel. Its kinda new and barily making its way here in the states. I've only seen a couple online store's carry it in the US. I actually ordered it off Ebay that ships locally from Arcadia. There's another store in Nevada that carries full part support or else everything else must be ordered from Asian. I'm sure in time, more companies will carry part support as it becomes more popular.

I don't think duct-tape will work with this little fellow. The blades move way too fast. :wow2:

Hmm I might have to have one! I dont do any indoor flying in my living room but that DOES look like fun... A Walkera? NFW.... Up to date thier stuff has SUCKED but looks like they may have a winner here...
NOW.... the day someone comes out with a heli that size that does 3D (screw the gyro I dont need it) then MAN... we got some living room funflys!

That is exactly what i'm waiting for. Got to be way cheaper to crash going inverted :) imagine doing chaos on a cp the size of a picoZ in the living room ;)

Now you just figure out how to get the blades inverted without unbolting them and turning them over and I will try an inverted hover in my living room with it! :smokin:

I forgot about that method, i remember a vid of someone doing that with their #4;) that would look sooo cool doing inverted fig8's

I get serious flight time with it too. I took it apart to change the main shaft and ended up breaking the paddle control. So I bought a hand made aluminum one. Gotta get it swapped out so I can do piros in the living room again.
My wife loves when I do that. :YeaBaby:

When you wire batteries in parallel, ie 3s 2200mAh, into a 6s2p, will it have the same power as a regular 6s1p 2200mAh pack?

These are not mine. I have both of my needle nose pliers. Also I normally fly alone. I would fly little Sean but people might think I am a perv or something. lol
