It's been ages since last hops with the 450 ... with work and weather - I really feel rusty.
I'm considering putting training gear back on ... at least for first flight till I feel comfortable again. _________________ If you don't crash - you ain't flying !

No shame in that. Just strap those buggers on securely so they don't cause more trouble than they're worth. _________________ Align: Trex 250 3GX + Trex 450 Pro with Vbar

I reckon i could be a bit rusty too. I have three 450 size heli's and have not flown them at all for about three months. Each time the weather has been ok i have had other things to do and by the time i get home from work its too dark. I have just been practising indoors with two 120sr and an msr and hope it keeps my thumbs in trim ready for the lighter evenings. |

you guys need to get your priorities in order.
Flying first, then other stuff later..
I crashed my 600 last weekend, and won't be back in the air till next week.
While running around today I stopped by the field to see who was there and was offered to fly my friends 700E that I setup for him...
Man, I gotta get one of those. what a monster. _________________ Trex 450V1...Trex 600Nitro Flybarless, Outrage Velocity 50 flybarless. Frenzy V2 50.
Crashing is just a landing that cost you money.. |
