Blowing off the cobwebs :)

Post by Lee »

Well, after weeks of hurricane force winds here, we had a day of total calm :)
Straight after work, I went to the hill next to my house and flew, The Warp360, The QAV500, and The RCX250 :)
8 flights in total :)

The Warp hasn't been flown in over four months, and the QAV500 maybe 6 months.
So it was a rusty thumb, take it easy, re maiden flight for both.

Heres the first video of the Warps maiden :)

Nice going Lee. Must feels good to lube up those rusty fingers and keep them from squeaking during your flight. Lol! The Weather has to be getting better going into the later part of year. Keep the videos coming.

Very nice, Lee! I love that sound that comes from the Warp! It's not like that "whining" that comes from my 450.

Nice, the more the flight went on the more you were getting back into it! Good to see you flying.
