Dan and I shot a bunch of video today. HC was laying the smack. Mike was mainly trying to please his wife, which seemed impossible. There are a lot of us who feel for you Mike. WOW, makes us appreciate our wives, and give HUGE KUDOS to Charley Stephen's wife Vicky, she RULES!!!

Man I had a blast, had to race home to beat 6" of snow tomorrow and tonight, and also to nurse a hurt back.

I love all you guys and BS RULES and so do you! :hug:

Hey Freaks,

BACKSHEEP RULES!!! Wow. I had a great time hanging with all the HELIFREAK gang! The event was sweet. It was nice to see some old friends and make some new ones. HC was flat-out flying the snot out of those Compass Knight 50's! Yeah Baby! :thumbup: Hey Debian, your T-Rex 600 boom support landing was sweet! :wink: Congrats GOINGINVERTED on your newest addition to the fleet...Knight 50! :cool:

Hey LONEWOLF2440,

Answer your question earlier...you missed ALOT of smackdown...
but the "KING" was none other than HF's own prized member...
Henry Caldwell! :thumbup: :thumbsup2: :thumbup: Go Henry!
HC brought it with him to this event full-force!

But besides Henry...Sean was really tearing the sky up with his 600N!
Chief Wilson put in some great flights...and now...his heli has a kickstand
...lol...nice one Chief... Not to mention a dozen more pilots with some smackdown skill.

Glad everyone made it back the rain was a bit of a downer but we got some good flights in yesterday. I was glad to see many of the Freaks make it out. Lots of good fun and fun as always.


BUT I made of the mistake of leaving a plank out to be fixed while I went to pick up a helicopter with Will. I came back and my foamy was 6 oz heavier and broken in 10 places guess there were lots of issues during the "test flight" that included being "grated" in a wire fence.. LOTS of finger pointing.:YeaBaby: Apparently nothing that 6-8 glue sticks can't fix.
I guess I did get my 10 seconds of enjoyment out of it but dang... It was brand new in the box that morning. Hopefully it provided some entertainment for the masses.:nanabobo

I want to thank every one for coming and fighting the elements!!
Had a little too much Fun myself (while Cooking) ?
The Bonfire was a total Washout, Just needed more Diesel Fuel and less Rain.
BBQ ,Beans & Slaw were Killer!! Rodney the wings were the Bomb I Love them
It will take a week to wash the Smoke out of my Skin.
Again Thanks to every one who came and Braved the elements,it was tough but worth every Minute.

well you should have left out the camera and you could have seen the plank fun too. ;-) just so you know it flew pretty awesome when someone that knows planks flew it.

dog i don't think the tape will work on it anymore but you might get lucky with that glue gun. lol

it was great to finally get a face to all those posters too.
i know a bunch of you guys were at ircha too but that place was a zoo and i think i only met 3 people there :-)
nice realaxing atmosphere at blacksheep except for a few 'LOWER' yells. haha
Fortin flew well but he still needs some practice to fly like HC.
wheres the dirt bike heli video?? i hear rooster might be retiring that heli for another knight!! Those knight kick AZZ!! right HC?? everyone needs to buy one haha
Rodney and I built 3 of them sunday night
it was great hanging out in the rain and HC and Jeremy brought the smack i just brought the basic flying. but how anyone be expected to fly after HC??

oh yeah City thanks again for hosting the event. maybe i'll get to stay for the hog next time.
hope to come back and visit before the next event since your only 2 hours away

ATTENTION ALL 600 OWNERS:

Sell them while you can. The Knight is in town!! Dont get stuck with them too like the raptors in the corner of the room!

Really though, I have got the new Compass Knight flying and it is kicking a$$. A little touchy at first, but after getting it set it is a 3D machine. Thanks to Rodney and Tom for working late to help get it going for me, and then HC for for helping with some setup pointers. Alot of fun and I can not wait until next time. Time to go back to work for a little while.

Man, HC and Mike certainly don't like the Stratus; I guess it's just not up to par with the Knight 50 and T-REX 600. Seems like I watched a video not to long ago with HC repeating the words "the Stratus was made for one thing: spanking that ass". :YeaBaby:

Maybe next year I'll come down when it's NOT raining. O well, a bad day at the field is better than a good day at work.

from what i heard, not just from both of them but others, they brake easily, parts are expensive & parts can be hard to find.
not sure for myself but i already have a knight 3d and that thing rocks, parts are cheap + easily found online & unless you crash it it stays together.

Truer words were never spoken!! Man that thing takes a beating and just comes back and asks for more. Amazing!

Out of curiosity, what was that whining noise coming from your heli when HC was spanking it?
