Alan_Perse:
Looks good Keith. Great Job. I like the colour scheme.
By the way, was it difficult to drive to Mt Lenister with the snow? I'd say it would be difficult in some places. Especially where their is steep drop beside the road.

Happy Days:
Thanks Alan!

There are two roads that lead up to Mt.Lienster. The road you're refering to is the one from Bunclody. I came up the other road from Kiltealy. This road doesn't have those precipice drops off the side, like the one you're refering to.

But yes, it was rather slippery up there in the snow. I've only got a little car, not a 4x4. I found getting up there was not too much bother. However when I came to go home some of the snow under my car had melted and then re-frozen. :?: Getting out of the car park did prove to be a little...... 'difficult', shall we say.  (Sliding around the car park as if the car was doing a waltz :lol: . I'll take some salt with me next time.

The most "interesting" part of the journey was coming down off the mountain. Very slowly, in first gear was the way I did it. Although half way down the ice on the roads turned to liquid, so from there on it was fine

(It's all part of life's great adventure :wink: )

Hi Keith!

That plane looks AWESOME! I love the covering work.
Don't even dare not to make some video of it flying.

Happy Days:
Thank you for your complement Nando, but I'm not very happy with you!

Flattered by your desire to see a movie of my plane, (and enthused with over-confidence,) I thought I'd try to do the same as I had with the "Elite," and film the model while I was flying it.
However,...... this Phase 6 has to be flown, unlike the Elite which just kinda floated around.
The net result is that while trying to get a grip on the camera with my left hand my right hand moved the stick the wrong way!!.......... and I now have a dented '6 :x



And it's all YOUR fault! ( :lol: )

So here's the deal Nando. We'll meet up somewhere and you can hold the camcorder while I fly the plane. (Or, if you're feeling brave, I'll hold the camera and YOU fly the plane.) You can have as much footage as you like then.

(You could intersplice it with some of the shots from one of your onboard camera's. Viewers would never know they were two different models filmed in different locations! :)  :) )

Keith

IceWind:
Oh....snap!
Sorry to hear that... :-(

But that's a deal... but let's play safe i can hold the cam and you fly.
Also you can put my onboard cam on the phase 6 if you want, it's 36gr.

I haven't touch anything RC in a while. :(
