Well glad you finally got it flying. Were you the lucky guy at the controls? Or did Terry or David fly it for you? Did it look good and make cool sounds? :)

Will you be coming to ROC or Mentone with it? Would be nice to see you again.

Ron,
Terry did all the flying. I don't want to crash a new machine and I am not real familiar with how they fly yet. I don't think David wants to fly anything I build :confused: I don't think I will make it to Mentone. My work schedule is changing at work so when the new one comes out I will look at the dates for ROC and see If I can make it there.
And It will be good to see you again also. Just as long as you don't make me do the Bruce Lee move to miss your RC plane again!!!!!
See YA Russ :p

It's not that I did not want to fly your gyro Russ, it is that I am not
rated to fly anything with a instrument panel like that! Have you guys seen his panel? It is like a 747! Very nice! David.

Aaaaaah.....a panel after my own heart. That's what panels should look like, not a mini-laptop screen.

Wait a minute. Why the 69 cent compass in the middle with the vertical card one in the panel?
