Installed a new engine because the ol one was underpowered. Only got the first flight on video because the camera fell off the mount. I'm looking at doing some kind of permanent mount so it won't fall off anymore.

A friend of mine and his brother are into that and his brother does that in FL or GA and gets paid to take video from people trying to buy land and that sort of stuff. They tried to talk me into it but I already have to many expensive hobbies I can't afford lol That and the complained because I wanted to get a bi-plane rather than the newer stuff.

I really want to get a mutual engine bomber like a b-25 or b-17, would rather the 25 you see way to many 17's. But looking at some type of warbird p-51 or so for my next plane.

I just got to figure out a more permanent mount, the camera fell off after the first flight. Looking at getting a help as well and I'll see if I can get the camera attached to it as well.

+1 prop, nice flying bud. Love the barrel roll toward the end Bit of a squishy landing, but nice control. |

Norfolk va. All the snow melting turned the field to soup pretty much. Going to puck up a strong landing gear hardware and bigger tires and see if it helps.

Here is what you need to get for yourself. I could not even begin to guess the price.
I would like to have this one but it is out of my price range.

That top one is a beautiful aircraft. I do like the biplane but I'd you crash even slightly you have 2 wings you have to worry about possibly repairing. Most things on the aircraft I'd toy crash can be repaired fairly easily bit if you damage the Wing, depending on extent of damage it's almost better to start from scratch then to repair.

If the B-29 in that video had a few more hp's, i bet you could strap a toddler to it! That would be a sight to see  Yeah, they sell those at the mall for like $50...what's the difference?
Better motor, smarter esc, more powerful battery, among other things im guessing. |

By the way I almost think that I enjoyed the kids laughing and checking out your "plane" as much or more than I did watching the "Plane" itself. I had to rewind it up couple of times to make out what the one kid said to his mother when they walked a cross the street that made you laugh. "Can we get that?" Then I laughed too.

well first repair, and upgrades. She got a way from me, while i was trying to move for a truck coming into the cul-du-sac, and the blades hit the ground and tore up one of the main rotors. so new rotors were a must and i also got upgraded gyro, servos, and ESC. Hopefully ill have it all installed tonight and flying again tomorrow.

Im getting better at it but im starting to push it beyond what its suppose to fly so one day i might accidentally push it to far and break something so i might be upgrading soon to n extra 300 (acrobatic 3D plane), or my dream of a B-25 or C-130.
