Hi,
Well I am finally ready for my return to the slopes.
Before I go on I want to congradulate Joe and Fred for this site and the good development work they have been doing. You seem to have a good scene going on here, with a great atmosphere.So well done :clap: :clap: .
How do I join.
Anyway I found an Aeromod Voltij on a UK shop website and I thought 'thats the job',so I ordered it.
I had it built for last W/E but was ill.
I flew it on Monday in light conditions. I think it will be very good.I just had 2 short flights in light that was failing,having waited for some mist to go away.No trim at all was required. I just did enough flying to set the mixes for the crow brake and the 4 axis reflex adjust.Will need to check all this in stronger wind.
First landing 9/10.
Second one 4/10, thats 0 for me and 4 for the model, as I let too far behind and should have walked back up a bit more so I coult see the top of the slope.It was out of sight for the last few feet of the descent. It was ok, must have had a good touchdown.
At least I did not catch the rotor.
I can't wait to get it out again.
Anybody going out in the morning ??
Brian
