I got out to fly today.

You fly it, you document it. Tell us the story of the day. As always, video is better!

Put another 2 packs through the edge today, I can belive it's November and I've flown more in the last 2 weeks than I did over the last 2 months.
I've been working harriers and not losing altitude after transitioning to knife edge I can seem to get the throttle right.
I've up'ed the normal mode gain on A3s and it's like flying on a perfectly still day. Sorry guys no video this time I forgot to put the card back in the camera.

Lol. I let off too much power too soon. It's a good job it's got steel sprung landing gear. Just bend them back.

Can't wait to see that Lee. You won't believe how fast you'll pick it up. It is relaxing and less stressful.
