Got it set up properly yesterday so decided to get rid of the training gear. It feels awesome now so Theory got his camera out and took some footage of me flying about in the garden :D

lol, the noise is pretty loud and annoying but I've only done it once or twice in my garden ;) Had another fly about tonight but kept it to half a tank. So much fun, I really want to just fly it all day :D I guess that's about my 10th flight? I use a simulator that the handset plugs in to the PC so I can train on that all night without annoying anyone. :thumbs:

I have got a couple of helicopters... never really got past hovering though..

I got a Kalt space baron about 10 years ago with my first months pay from being at work ! :thumbs:

I got a Nexus a few years back but I dont use it anymore. The simulators were good even a few years ago so I can only imagine what they are like now.

The sim was great I could do a full FIa schedule on that, then went out with the real thing and just got transfixed with hovering it. got to doing nose in though :nod:

great fun I may have to dig mine out of the loft now...
