A little reminder out at our field to switch to idle up before hovering inverted.

That is from the last two weeks at our field. If we kept them all for a while, well we could probably write a new chapter for websters with the booms and blades

Actually, we were also toying with the idea of building a "white" picket fence with all of them instead of dumping them in the trash. This way when the wives visit the field, they'll think what a bunch of romantic guys we are.

In the old planker days we use to have one word to explain the crash, "ipulledupinainvertedpass". Nower days my new word is "irolleditoverinnormal".

I rolled my raptor over in normal mode at eye level one day at the field and after the blade speed started to drop off, I tried to recover and wound up bouncing the thing off the ground wile it was going real fast backwards. when it hit it pitched one tail blade off and broke the PC link on the other and sprung up in the air about 40 feet. It started doing the death spin from hell and I then found out I had inadvertantly inhibited the throttle hold mode during some programing. Well at that point there was not much i could do.

Ill never do that again. More stock for the fence.

I think it's a 678 now. Not sure about sab though. I know there are some SAB 550's in the shrine along with some funky's,V's,NHP's,TG's and some Gamma 700's just to name a few. None of them are mine of course.
