The I'm going out flying thread 2016

Just got in a 20cc AERO-PLUS Edge 540 V3 from Mile High RC I need to assemble, in the next couple days for a club member. After opening the box and inspecting the pieces and parts I was very impressed in the quality. The ply used is A+ the pre- Hinged surfaces are with Robart hinge point hinges the canopy hatch has nice thumb screws The covering is Ultra Cote The bottom fuse runners and side runners are carbon reinforced. I could go on and on Back to the Hangar so I can GETTER DONE!!

And those high winds mellowed out some.

I could hardly sleep last night I piece of corrugated fiberglass was torn loose from the house next door and almost hit my bedroom window and a piece of corrugated tin roof on the neighbor's car port was ripped loose and all could here all night was BANG, BANG,BANG,BANG AS THE WIND LIFTED IT UP AND DOWN

Wow... that wind ripped through here late yesterday morning. Sorry ya'll are getting it now. On the upside to that, it's gorgeous here this morning. You know what that means?!?!?!

Just in from flying.... Now I remember what I missed about the warm weather. GREAT day of flying with my son @Shayne Epley. The oil refineries need to make me more gas. Probably burned 5 gallons between Thursday, Friday and today. At this rate, I will need my own filling station. LOL....

Not the prettiest, but being a new airframe and still getting acquainted with it, I guess it was ok. I did get a couple that were much prettier and very good. Of course I did not get those captured. DOAH....LOL

@stangflyer, Try This next time out. The true Definition of a Rolling Circle ( One complete Roll, in one Complete Circle) 1/4 roll in 1/4 of the circle, same altitude through out, and finish exactly where you started the maneuver. One of the best at this very precise maneuver I had ever seen do it in competition was Chip Hyde. I met him years ago at a Big Bird fly in, at Love field Greely Colo.

Figures. Beautiful day to fly today and all I managed to do was 1 rolling loop, before my spot on servo arm stripped out. Going back to SWB arms...
