I call it FMS time at my place. 1/2 hour everynight at least. Can't wait till the start of the flying season. The senior gents at our field won't run if I can fly the heli this year. Haha I love it.

some of the older gents are still leary of sim trained pilots they will probably still run haha J/k

I started with FMS then tried to fly my Heli.

Results:
I have used almost a full gallon of fuel used and just had my first crash. (Small crash, snaped a landing skid. Total to repair the Heli ร.65 counting shipping).

My non-RC friends think I know what I'm doing and I have to keep telling them to stand back. It's scarry how close they want to get to the thing!!! Especialy when they want to take close up pictures. :shocked:

O.B.T.H.,
Were you the person that scattered all the older flyers and sent them under the tables last year at Mimar Park, WA????

Wow, 1 gallon, 1 crash and all it costed was a skid. I'd say FMS did you good! I'm pretty impressed with my flying on the sim, didn't think I would be doing inverted hover or even good landings yet but, I am. I guess I will be able to tell exactly how I'm doing once I re-introduce the pucker factor. That could be soon, the weather is looking real good lately!!!
Thats funny, I can see it now, newspaper all over the place. LOL
I'll have to remember that for raking leaves next year!!!!
