RC-Hangout

Good luck with the new job Graham.

Don’t know if any of you have seen this, but it’s pretty cool.

So what did you think Graham?
A bit of fun
Standard of flying seemed quite low from what I could see, but I wasn't there, so don't want to criticise too much
A lot of broken planes.

This is a three part documentary starting tonight on UK TVs Channel 4
Looking forward to it.
For those abroad, you can watch it live if you have a VPN server on your PC.

Hi Graham
It’s not nylon, it’s delrin.
Tolerance was tight as a ducks arse
It’s the bottom part of a rudder system. The rudder shaft fits into the cup.

To show the size next to my hand.

If you have broken a servo arm, I can make you a new one.
Just made this one today.
The aluminium plate is 40mm think.
Don’t think it will break lol.

Changed it to Instagram link. Does that work Graham?

Tested out the Tracking function yesterday. Seems to work pretty well.
Check out my Instagram post.

I purchased a DJI Spark for client.
He wants it to survey his surroundings from his boat when anchored up.
He doesn't have a clue, so i'm getting to fly it.
When his boat is finished, sometime this summer, I'll be getting aerial footage of the launch with the Spark

Happy Birthday Derek.
Enjoy it.

Nice job Tony.
Amazing how stable these things are now.

Bang!!! full neg and into the dirt she went :( Both blades done, feather shaft, and canopy. Cant say it was before or after the crash, but one servo had a sheared main g...

I always find I have tonnes of spare parts,
but when I crash my heli, you can guarantee i won't have that one part i need

Congrats Graham, more help the merrier.

The story gets worse. My friend spotted a crack in the boom. On closer inspection, there are four hairline cracks along the boom, and one has had superglue put in it!!! As it was in the black painted area, it was hard to see, until in the sunlight. I have sent pictures to the shop owner, and he acc...

I felt the same Derek. I was always scared to fly my helis hard, incase I crashed and had to fork out the bill for new parts. It has held back my improvement quite a bit. So that why I made the decision to cull the fleet down to one affordable durable heli. So the Goblin 420 fit the bill. Hoping onc...

Well we'll be up there next june.
Maybe pop in and say hello
