You should see the video.... it's "off the hook!" Kyle...Kyle...Kyle...Kyle...


Matt, check out these pic's of the Yak....(the ones Darrin posted)

I'll bet your next plane will be even nicer, and this plane was awesome!

Sorry pal, but look at all the chances Kyle took with it! Three inches off the ground on hover, six to ten inverted, and all the time he had Complete Control.

Matt here,
I just want to say thanks Mike for the offer can't say how thankful I was for that. But what happened was no bueno to say the least. But anyways I'll get back in the air somehow. I plan to be at olympia, zillha, and snohomish.

That event looked like a place for some good pics though, in the snow.

Hey boyz

The only reason I couldn't make it to the contest, is because I was working on my plane. And guess what? its done!!!!!.

Will try to get it in the air by the end of the week. I am alittle scared to fly the big ones.

Hey Rainman, great thread so far. I'm subscribed as I know many in the NW are. How about keeping this going all season. This has turned out to be a great platform for keeping up with the happenings going on with our cherished sport/hobby in the entire region, not to mention, another way to FEED THE ADDICTION. It'll be great (like it was for the P.B.) for getting people involved and ready for our upcoming contests. What do you think guy's???

Thank you for the kind words Nick. I would like for us all to keep an open forum for the entire IMAC season. A contest thread that continually grows and progresses thru the contest schedule. Great idea... I don't know if it is possible to modify the name on this one so we don't lose the activity, or if we must begin all over again. Let's find out then we'll figure it out. Anybody else know...?

That's a tough one Ben. It was recorded in hi-def and there is no way to convert it without losing a substantial portion of the resolution. I was going for the Blue Ray Hi Def burners. I was even at Best Buy to pick them up, when I found out the discs are about twenty bucks each. That caused me to hold off and wait until prices come down. Unfortunately, it also means.... no video. On the bright side it is on my computer, so...., when you come up here to visit Ben you can see it. Once I get the burner for my computer, then I'll burn you a disc.
