Post subject: Pictures of the 450 not crashing |
 |
|
These are from this summer. I am learning how to fly and my wife is learning how to use a camera on an unstable moving object, lol.
I am getting better. The last time I had a "crash" was from not being able to find the idle up switch when I landed. I usually take it off idle up before landing. That time I didn't and when I looked down for the switch it must not have had much weight on the skids and it just tipped over with full head speed. Live and learn. |

That's some nicely centered pics there C-A.
I agree with you; get out of idle up on approach, make it a real habit. You're doing well though, I can't get my wife anywhere near a model in flight.

I had to weed through hundreds of pictures to find about 30 that weren't blurry and only half of the heli. She is getting better. She likes to watch me fly or crash. She will let me land the mini's in her hand when I fly in the house. |

C-A did you get her already trained or did you have to do it.
If you got her already trained where can I get one.

I think you might get an already trained one in Saudi Arabia or the Phillipines Jack, things are not the same there as here. However, I for one would not want their regimes to come here, there are times when we all enjoy a challenge. What would we do with all those solutions and no problems to solve?
As they say in France "Vive la differance!"

Hi Guys,
Not game to joint this conversation, not only does my wife come flying with me, take photos and video, but on rare occasions reads this forum, if I leave the browser open, life is sweet now I don't need the complication. |
