I like 'em "BIG"!
Trying to get caught up from all the "Happenin's"..... You all have been busy. Very cool...

Can't believe I am letting this out....but I slipped over to the dark side.... (just one plane) I had the chance to buy a brand new FMS 1800mm (65") Mustang a couple of months ago. It had already had the updated 360kv motor installed and since it was so dirt cheap, (280 bucks) and new never flown, I figured what the heck. Oh...did I mention it is a Mustang? Yes, I think I did mention it is a Mustang. LOL. Love this plane.... I have had it out a few times and it is amazing to discover that if you do it like the book says.... Any size Mustang will come in and set down like the full scale.

I also bought one of the new H9 20cc Mustangs. I installed an RCGF 20cc gasser and man that thing flew great. Well, that was "UNTIL" I pulled a tight loop too close to the ground. Yeah, not a pretty ending. See fellas? I can do dumb things too. LOL. Fortunately everything came through in perfect shape. Except the airframe. DOAH! I loved the plane so what did I do? Bought a second and put my brand new RCGF 26cc gasser in it. Dang does that thing flat scoot. So what does a guy with two little Stangs do? Well he takes them both to the field for some much needed sorties and pushing the enemy back behind enemy lines. LOL.

From last weekend..... great fun!
