Nice crash, that's the main reason I've never gotten into flying. |

OMG, I about hit the floor when smoke started pouring out of that damn plane. Heres somthing I have never understood about Rc planes or boats (whether gas/nitro or electric) Your effed if you have an electronics glitch, power failure, run out of fuel or power. A wing comes a little loose, or a prop falls off. If your on the shore driving your boat in the lake, or pond, and it dies, you gotta get wet to get that bitch. If you loose control of your plane, its gonna get totalled. Not that I'm bashin the plane or boat guys, but I know one thing, if my MRC gets glitchy, or power dies, or I flip it, or lose control.. I can walk to where it is, minimal damage. Hell, even the guys that race buggies, even if they lose it, or hit a wall, or power dies. They didnt loose the whole thing. Maybe that got a big bill in replacement parts, but they dont have to start all over. Maybe its just me. |

That was a great crashed and commentary, but he was pretty dumb for standing next to that lipo while it was someking it self out. I seen lipo's blow up and take airplanes to shreds. None the less it was funny! |

...or in complete darkness 30 second exposure...  Airplanes can be a blast. I have the most fun doing half-ass 3D flying. Here's a 1/4 scale plane I've got.  I found the stall point for that one about 8 feet off the ground and just feathered the throttle to keep it in the air. Last edited by JasonInAugusta; 04-28-2009 at 11:14 PM. | |

And THAT is exactly the reason I never got into RC flying! At least with crawlers the worst is I have to walk down a hill to retrieve it(assuming I don't drive near cliffs)

Nothing wrong with waking up a dead thread. Sometimes it's fun to see where/how things were that long ago
