leafer Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Had been flying BS with keyboard since it came out until today when I finally went and bought a joystick. Simply magic. :D The funny thing is I can't land this thing now, but I could half of the time using just keyboard. lol Just sharin'. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

leafer Posted December 16, 2011 Author Posted December 16, 2011 Yeah, I played for 15 minutes yesterday then had to go to work. I think the built-in throttle just doesn't have the range to make small corrections making landing quite difficult. BS is just pure joy to fly though. I spent almost two hours just flying all over the map. I honestly don't see what all the fusses are with trim. You trim then fly then trim as needed. PeterP, My Suncom is a work in progress. I've sent email for price on Cub Pilot's hall sensors, but he hasn't replied. I guess I'll dig around the net for homemade hall sensors. Next month I'll take my drawing to a machinist then I'll know which part costs the least to make, and I'll start with that. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
