Title: Flying Tuesday October 3rd. 2012
Post by: Gregor77 on October 03, 2012, 09:05:29 AM
Well, I had a chance to meet up with Cliff / Bill / Dave / Jeff and Thomas last night.  It was a bit breezy but pretty good none the less.  I grabbed my FMS HS-123 and used one of Ron's old poly quest batteries.  It gave the plane a bit more power.   With the wind I had to really "fly" the plane, but it flew well.  Cliff flew the "Buzz Berling" Spitfire and his Dynam Mustang.  Both  flew very well.  Bill flew his F-18 in the tiger colours and it looked amazing.   Dave was using another 3D plane (not sure what it was).

Thomas flew his Apprentice and it flew great. I trimmed it out for him and he had a good 12 min flight dancing around the clouds.   

I have very little experience with the apprentice and I like the way it flies.  I do notice it does drop the nose during the turns with little up.  That is the only thing I find a bit odd.  It's hard to explain, it's like it dips on a hard left or right bank.  Even with up, it seems more than normal.

I can't figure out why we have so many bugs still at the field!  lol!

Maybe someone is "bug addicted".

Yes, you are right...

Maybe I was  hoping to get out to the field again yesterday.   Anyone go?

No, but I'm hoping to come out this afternoon/tonight. Although it looks like I have two packages from two different vendors arriving for me today, or what I like to call "The Perfect Storm"

Great!

If the weather is good, I will also try to make it out.
