brewber19 Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 I'm flying radio controlled helicopters... The model is called a T-rex 600n Pro, the 'n' meaning nitro-methanol powered and the 'Pro' meaning 3D capable flying...not me just yet. Its about 1m long, 0.35m tall and has a rotor diameter of 1.35 metres with a headspeed of 1500-2200rpm - not a toy. Anyways, here's some pics of me on my second attempt at flying it but in 25mph winds (very frightening)... (1) The model (2) Engine running, just straightening the blades for a smoother spool-up (yup, that's me...no laughing....or like Ahmed....I KIIIIIIILLLL YOU!) (3) Tentative first steps in 25mph head/side wind... (4) Getting the hang of it now... The pics dont really do it justice but...that's my new hobby! Edit: The orange ball things are training undercarriage, stop it tipping when novices snag the skids on the ground etc...its already saved me about 20 tip-overs...which at £35 a time for a set of blades, very grateful to have them there...even though they do look odd. I've had 32 flights now and comfortable with tail-in and nose-in hovering, done my first loop-the-loop and hammerheads, figure-8s and circuits. Great fun but its only a matter of time before this £700 work of art does a "figure 9" (lawn dart). Anways, that's what keeps me amused.
