    Bring back the shame!

    But to be labeled a Glow Pilot is the ultimate insult in the world of GS :) Just glad I made it out of that status QUICKLY!

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    We didn't have 74, but we did fly on New Years day this year :) Last year I flew on New Years day and had to de-ice my plane when I got done and then it started snowing :)

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I have the same problem as the sun starts to set. The whole plane turns black REAL FAST! The night we took these pictures we had a lot of natural lighting so my daughter was able to get the pictures with the moon in the background before I had to land :) The bigger plane isn't quite as nimble as...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Thank you. I normally take all the pictures at our club, but my daughter has taken a liking to my 5D MarkIII and does an amazing job. Plus she is a little more creative than I am :)

    How many of you are running the new DA150L?

    I have a 30x12 Mezjlik that is already drilled for the 150 for sale that just has a very slight spinner nick on one side of the hub. Check out the ad at http://giantscalenews.com/ads/mejzlik-30x12-prop-2/ I went with a 32x10 on my 3w-150 TOC and have no use for this prop.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    It is a blast! I have a 3W-150 TOC in it on cans and it swings the 32x10 Mej at 5800 on the ground! I have unlimited vertical and will hover at about 1/4 throttle. I am trying some IMAC stuff with it and the more I get the plane tweaked as far as balance and thrust lines go, the better it flies...

    My wife says.....

    My wife will actually cook for our fun flies and sometimes send stuff with to the meetings. She is ok as long as I talk to her before a major purchase, ie 42% Edge :-) It has cost me a couple of sewing machines, but it is worth it in the long run. My daughters actually enjoy going to the field...

    Lets fight Fire with Fire!

    I have to agree with Bartman on this one guys. I have felt the pain of lawyers letters a few times for doing what was right, ultimately winning :), but it does make for added expense and lack of sleep at night :-( Let's do as pawnshopmike suggested and make sure we are wearing our gear at any...
