oh man, today it was windy at the basin where i flew, put in about 24 packs today on the 450. that scoprion motor is so powerful, i tore a spindal in half in flight!
long man, i now believe you had crashed, that picture doesn't look bad though. just get your helicopter going and fly it again, dont let the crashing hurt you, same with you jim :thumbup:

Man, I hope that field doesn't eat my Vibe when I finally get out there.
Just a couple of more weeks left, and I get my life, and my flying time back :)
Dang guys, sounds like a gnarly day. I was hoping to make it out all week but with a sick wife I was on kid duty with my 2.5 year old, I'll have to just pack her up with me next time :)
Dude Jason, 24 packs in one day, that is awesome!

The field is not EVIL... I have NOT crashed there yet myself.......
Kevin crashes anywhere so he can't call any field evil ;)
However I havent seen Airboss crash ever so DAMN I missed it.... Jim... Rolling tail slide? I have never even seen you do a tail slide let alone a rolling one. You must have gotten better since the last time I saw you (just before I left for Hawaii in end of Nov.)

I need the hyper collar for mine, just noticed one of the holes on the stock collar is stripped so I'm down to 3 set screws time to order a spare.

I got good day at AP :) , today is for trex 500 there were 5 of them shinning the sky there today, weather is good.
my rex600 got bad damper O ring(I thought), it take me a hour to figure out what wrong,, it turned out that O ring is okay but i FORGOT 1 metal washer ( between thrust bearing and inner big bearing in main grip) when i upgrade platic grip to metal. Stupid me. able to learn some new move today. no crash :)
1 of rex 500 went down today, minium damage, due to gyro double tape got loose , i am NOT telling you guy whom this rex 500 belong to :) , better be there next time hehe
