Post by: Frank v B on June 13, 2015, 09:03:10 PM
Will maiden my E-Flite BAE Hawk tomorrow (Sunday).  Anyone with jet experience who can help will be much appreciated because I have none! :o
Will also maiden my new Rifle 1M.  Will attempt it at around 11 am before the 1 pm Nooner race.

I can offer you the same advice you always offer me:

Because there's no prop blast over the controls, keep the speed up, or keep the nose down.

I'm working tomorrow, but Glenn and Simon are excellent jet pilots.

Will do Michael.  Will probably need both Glenn and Simon to get me through this... then beat the crap out of them in the Nooner race. ;D

Well... I was willing but the heavens opened up and decided to rain on my (tiny) parade.  Never took the plane out of the car but flew another one until the rains came. :'(

.... to be continued.

ps: on the bright side... I did not crash! :)
