Welp I have to fess up...myself and Mike King(Kinger) hit the field this afternoon...Mike brought out his Evo and I had my rap50. I love my rap 50 to death but Man that Evo of Mikes is one sweet machine!!

Mike so comfortable with it he was doing inverted autos and rollin them out 40 feet off the deck and landing them right at his feet.... Mike u got some skillz, I need to borrow some :wink:

Sweet flying today!!

Thanks Matt

Still have a looooooong way to go though in this hobby. That's what makes it so great. Once you learn something, there are a gazillion more new things to learn.

You're right though, that Evo is one SWEET machine.

I just want to learn simple forward flight..... Someday I'll be able to use this EVO to the fullest (I Hope). By the way Matt, when you get around to putting yours together

I upgraded the frame bolts to sockethead cap screws with lock nuts from http://www.mcmaster.com/ all I can say is DAMNNNN! Much better feel when tightening, frame just feels more solid (and yes, I did go out and get a good set of JIS screwdrivers when I bought the kit, but the socketheads just feel much nicer!). I wish you guys good flying weather always in Ohio (cause it's usually the same weather we get a day later, here in NY)!

Mike
