The I'm going out flying thread 2016

[Bartman]

Billy and Ryan went down to Sikeston MO to fly today or else they would have been at your field. They said the same thing about the wind. Almost null till they pulled up to the field this morning. Then it started blowing and blew all day at about 12 mph. They still had a blast and got in lots of flights.

Here's a few pics they sent me.

Was it that obvious?

Looks great, they're lucky to have you supporting them!

Took my Sbach65 out for the first time yesterday. Tail heavy as hell but I can fix that. You can see it ballooning really bad throughout the video. fun plane though and was nice to fly a gasser over nitro for once. DLE20 pulled it great.

Looks Great Chris.

Thanks. I wonder who built it though as its a damn sexy plane.

After retiring my glow stuff and running gas for years now, it is SO hard to even consider anything NOT gas! I so hope to see the smaller gas engines get better as I think we will see the smaller profiles become more popular.

On those days when I am too lazy to get out my giant scale planes, I fly my 20cc profile and have a solid blast. The great thing is it is dirt cheap to fly. Small 8oz tank and you use about 50-75% of the fuel in a 10 minute flight. Just think after about 10 flights you haven't used hardly any fuel!

What 20cc profile are you flying?

 

[Luchnia]

It is the aerobeez 330SC Extra, yellow, white, and black profile. Certainly not a bro approved slab - nonetheless a lot of fun. I bought it at a swap meet about 3 years ago. I busted up the fuse once by a high speed spiral into the ground, but I rebuilt it. Got a DLE 20cc on it.

Thanks bro. But I'm the lucky one. Billy, Ryan and Dennis do a great job of representing the EPG brand.
