You mean there's something you actually don't know Lee.... I'm shocked mate... Haha

Never had the need, flying by myself

Looking good Tony. When's the maiden?

I believe that Lee has a DX8. I know that Tony has a DX6i.

It just so happens that I've done a bit of video on how to do the buddy box with both radios. I've had it set up with my wife, my Dad, and my flying buddy. It works very well. I posted the video on the forum in the "Radio" section.

Here is the link: http://www.rc-hangout.com/forum/viewtop ... =125&t=363

Well the weathers crap at the minute Dan, blowing a gale... Typical.. plus I really need to replace these main blades as they didn't balance too well. I ordered some the other day so maybe get them tomorrow or Tuesday hopefully...

That video is brilliant Derek... Cheers

Your confidence has grown quite a lot since last time I saw one of your vids, Tony. Good progress! Btw, no snow?

Tony · Post by **Tony** » Mon Jan 05, 2015 7:47 pm

Thanks Dustin, no more heli flying now as it's really bust up this time... Quads now until I get some foam board to make a plane..

Yeah I felt pretty confident then Marius, was doing ok... Stupid mistake at Lee's though drove it hard into the ground, forgot I was in IU... Never mind..

I'm just tagging these pics on the end of my flight logs. This is after my major crash at Lee's. The bird is totalled, even though it may not look like it. I'm planning on getting a new 450 kit now when I get my refund for the sim...

This is the kit I'm thinking of... Cheap yes... I'll use all the electronics off the dead heli..

And the dead heli, tail boom S shaped...

I would skip the cheap kits and just buy a good one they fly so much better

Have a look for a tarot 450 kit I got one last year off eBay for spares the kit are as good as an align kit, they come naked (without electronics) I think they go for around 80 quid

Yup Tarot is good stuff Tony and interchangeable with Align parts:)
