Way cool :tup: Side note - there was a big RC plane “airshow” at the Nike base out on Lakeshore Road in the southtowns over the weekend. I was going to slow down and watch for a few minutes but was pressed for time. ---

Meh, screw gas, and screw going big. Parkflyers are where it’s at now. I was an AMA member flying at AMA registered sites when I was a kid but I don’t have time for that anymore. I had a 70+ MPH low-wing sport plane that if it ever went out of control and hit someone it will no doubt kill them so your options for safe flying spaces were limited. Now I fly in my front yard, or toss the plane in the trunk and fly at any park or open parking lot. I’ve got an IFO MK3 and it’s a very agile and tough park flyer: > **[ノルバスク、アムロジンはどちらも同じ成分？](http://www.flyifo.com/)** > > ノルバスクとアムロジンはどちらも同じ成分を含んだ降圧薬だと言われています。当サイトではこの2つの治療薬についてご説明します。 With a brushless setup it will hover at less than half throttle. Full throttle and it will take off straight up like you shot it out of a cannon. We had a big 75x100 future expansion space with standard office height ceilings at my old office and I’d fly it around in there for a 15 minute break just to unwind. I’ve been looking at sub-micro planes that I could fly in my living room. That or a 3d profile electric, or maybe a flying wing to satisfy that need for speed (80+ with minimal mods). All of them are electric though. ---

All you have control of is up/down and spin. They balance them every so slightly front heavy so they slowly move forward when not spinning. I’m getting out of the heli game anyway. I’ve got a collective pitch electric that I can fly circuits around the front yard with now but they’re super fragile. I like to go out and fly for fun really ripping around the trees and other obstacles in my yard so crashes are inevitable. With the heli even a slightly rough landing results in ordering repair parts.

That or a 3d profile electric, or maybe a flying wing to satisfy that need for speed (80+ with minimal mods). All of them are electric though. Been flying across the street in a very large area. Ran about 4 packs and accidentdentally crossed the lipo wires!!! Big ballon but no fire. +1 on park flyers charge them throw em up take a brake. Redo … I wouldn’t fly a gas plane because of the neighbors, they are very loud. 3 planes on build right now 300 extra, SU27XXL and a UFO/front prop pizza box style. Smaked up a CAP 580 pretty good. Great site if you want to get into RC. You pay what you get for! Don’t cheap out on the radio. Running a Futaba 4EX, 4 micro HS-55’s, 40 amp speed control and a CSRC E5\_L-8, Various Lipo’s.

Yeah, I used to order from them all the time. In fact, they still send me their catalog. Their shipping is overpriced and they are extremely slow to carry anything new unless it’s from greatplanes. When park flyers took off you could get complete ready to fly setups from bphobbies with lipo packs for 100-150. All tower would carry were shitty GP kits with nicads for 200+.
