Does anyone else fly rc models ??

[Markyed30]

Just some of mine along the way some end up that deep in the ground u need to dig the engine out lol, some 3d stuff and some are capible of 200+mph

I'm still learning (and I'm sh*t at it) and have a Hobbyzone Super Cub LP (the closest thing i could find to the Cesna 152 I fly) which I bin EVERY time I go out and also have a Parkzone Spitfire Mk2 which I've never flown in the year I've had it.

Would love to become good enough to fly a 3D bird but I already have WAY to many hobbies and interested and not enough time so it will probably never happen!  

Got any video of you doing your thing?

Only a short vid of me inexperienced last year flying the yellow magnum r in to the clouds then losing it and passing the tranny over to someone to find it lol ill post it up, If ur interested ur better joining a club with trainer and with lead ect if all goes wrong they will save it ud  pass ur test in a few months i only usually go on sundays

A mate bought a thunder tiger trainer.... nitro top wing.

We ran the engine it... trimmed it all as best we could. He took off and stalled it.... slammed into the deck... that was the end of that!

Have been to my local club a few times, hdrcmc.co.uk, a little odd (the patrons), all about 70 years of age and they ALL build there own aircraft, a little bit like "Deliverance" TBH!! 

I will go again when the weather cheers up a bit. Determined to use the Spitfire (at least once).

thers around 110 members in our club and atleast 30 are under 40 which mibby helps so its a good crack where as it must be a nightmare otherwise lol !!!!!

Harder to fly than the real thing I'm led to believe!

[Markyed30]

Midair crashes are gr8 to watch if its not ur own  wouldn't be the same withought them lol

[adminkatana]

It must be even worse when as in the video above its not your fault at all.

I'd love to have a go with one, but know I'd smash it pretty quickly

Got a Funjet Ultra myself with brushless, been clocked at 187mph by my mates radar gun (Which he takes to the TT races), also got a 3D model (Which I prefer as its more fun, trying to control a small heavy fast model (Funjet) is hard work, you can relax with a 3D model even if its 2ft off the floor 

[Markyed30]

Lol I'm building a 6 cell ultra with het motor just copying stuff from a guys set up on YouTube think its GPS at 217 lol, I'm only expecting 1 flight TBH 

[Tamiyoman]

Mine was running 4 cells when clocked at 187mph, did put 5 celss in it, but never clocked it, cannot remember what motors in it as its at my old house still in the loft
