Nothing like a bit of added pressure from loved ones!!! Girlfriend cannot understand why I am so passionate about my Banshee, but luckily we share a lot of other moments and things.

I'm sure your Banshee would know what it is like to be really flown hard.

William: Sweating profusely after flying and maybe just a little soiled, sighs relief after landing.
Banshee: "What? Is that all you got!


(PS: I'm not saying I could do any better especially compared to Tareq)

Mark i fully agree with you there! I dont fly 3D at all...big loops using the entire airspace, so yes my banshee will be laughing while i go change underwear. Excited for tomorrow!

I think I would let Tareq fly my Banshee just to see his reaction and also what he could do with it!!! I think that would be most definitive flight anyone has ever seen!!!

I handed my TDR over to a sponsored pilot at a fun fly one weekend, set it to 1900 rpm and let him rip.

That was enough to get my heart pounding pretty fast. He wouldn't believe that the heli wasn't running 2100-2200 rpm.

I think I'm at the point where I'll save the Banshee for my personal flying pleasure.

I have no probs handing over my Banshee controls to a pro. At the last national Aussie meet there were about 5 stations all smacking around under a 100 feet. I handed over my Banshee to Gavin Broadbent who took her quietly up to about 400 feet way out and then brought her down at a high speed pass at about 200 feet, way above the flight boxes of the others. Need less to say after the Banshee scream, the other guys landed and just watched in awe and enjoyed the show. One of those memorable moments ....
