Float fly

Well It was a great day good turnout and LOTS of seamasters, Joe had some wicked neat aircraft The same model in different sizes Tiny and small, Lots of electric and gas from the silent Eagle yep a bird From Bob to a Roaring gas Job of Art's , Bobs Eagle may have been quiet But the Loon did not like it :) All in all a real good morning, I dunked the solo But she flew again ok and then better when we went to Whispering Pines in the afternoon, Got the ugly stick up and away for several flights, the OS 4 stroke ran like a dream, I was having a blast learning to fly again, Had to bring it in a lot hotter than the trainer and fly the aircraft constantly not like the trainer at all, loop's roll's spins all sorts of neat stuff but I got disorientated one mistake too low and put her into the tree's.Smashed the wing too pieces BUT went home with a smile on my face,Started to build a new wing and can not wait to get her up in the WILD blue yonder again

Nearly Here

Well it's nearly here,Our first float fly of the year, I think I'm about as exited as Art at the prospect, the Solo is ready to go again really needs recovering but can not find the time and if it works why fix it???. Yep thats the same aircraft that got dunked at least twice last year, wandered of through the tree's and broke it's tail off twice,She has a new motor though,lost so much power from the front bearing(and Fuel)that I retired "Old faithful"and polished her up for the wall.Will try to get a Das Stick ready too but can not promise due to work schedules, Anyway thats the news from here Happy landings

New setup

sitting out here in OH waiting for oversize permit, and got bored so I decided to change templates. What do you think? seems easier on the eye to me,

The Rest of the Story

Found this on line at rc universe, and just HAD to have it, was built by three old gents two who have since died, and bought from their estate, never flown, last owner put in two lipos 3cell 4000mah, two 50amp speed controls, 4 370 brushed kysho geared truck motors, Last owner tried to fly from long grass an bumpy field without success . Witnesses say (through the tears in their eyes)on short grass or blacktop it would be fine.needs a lot of tlc as pic's will show,
