    Chris is a lot better flyer than he makes out. I have been pushing him out of his comfort zone and I think he is ready to take his A cert. Next time Chris...... no buddy box. The stabiliser wheels are coming off!!! Oh yes!

    Nice...!!
    Dead sticks good.
    Figure of eights where nice.. I like them flown like that nice and wide no rush.
    Take off was good.
    Everything looked very good.
    Maybe a bit of speed control with the wind would be good.. Looked fast down wind and slow into wind.
    Power off down wing power on into wind..just nice to see a consistent speed.
    But you have and show excellent control.
    Id happily pass your A.
    Well done Chris your journey is a joy to watch.

      Thank you so much, yup I will take on board what you say. I try just keeping a constant air speed, it just means I go slower into wind. Thats nice you would pass me, and so much support such as your self with the RC community. We a great bunch.
      It’s been a long journey, with me feeling like fish out of water while flying. George said to me that you learn to take the test, then you learn to fly. Hope you have a great weekend.Have a fun week ahead, hopefully I will get some evening flights this week. 🫡

      It was a surprise that I found them ok to do, the plane is a nice floater, so I am sure a Jet would be different. But you right, the more I can fly the better, I am hoping to fly this week after work, so let’s hope the weather plays ball. Have a fun and great week ahead.

My wife and I had our honeymoon in Vegas, it’s different heat there than the UK, the UK you feel like you are in an oven with the humidity, but Vegas, you do not realise how quickly you get dehydrated. Crazy world. Well I hope you get some cooler weather soon and get out and fly. Have a great week. 🫡

    Lovely take offs and two crackin dead sticks mate fantastic !!! If I can give you just one bit of advice is fly a little bit faster when it's windy couple of times you were right on the cusp of a stall and I don't want you to crash your lovely plane and set you back ! You got this buddy 😉👌

      Yea I really need to get the Up wind and Down wind air speed sorted out.
      The Small shower and winds it brings was a surprise, and I did call it after those flights, not to go back up. I am lucky to have george and the crew helping me get out and fly in the evenings. Certainly helps my confidence. The more you fly the better you get, a-bit like driving I guess. Hope you have a fun and great week ahead. 🫡

      @DadsRCHangar  4 місяці тому

      Heya Chris, yup if you want to fly at a BMFA insured field, generally you need to have a A cert. It’s mainly so people know you are in control of the plane and not the other way around. It’s a safety thing really, but it’s a great way to learn to fly. It’s took me long enough, but I believe I am close now. Have a great week ahead. 🫡
