A few shots I grabbed the other evening during an after-work session of flying with a buddy. These are what Park Flying is all about... A beautiful, clear, sunset lit sky and some fun stick time. Keeps the cobwebs off until the weekend rolls around.

Sorry Pitviper51 no videos i will try and post one next time i take it out. The Waco is awesome looking in the air. I had the plane for a little over a year the motor(a Brison 2.4)always ran like crap but the plane flew really well. So i sent the motor in for service he said he rebuilt the carb and gave me a new ignition. When i got the motor back and mounted it back on i took it out it ran even worse. I was about to sell it then i decided to pull the carb off and check things out on my own to find out why this thing is running like garbage. Here he had the carb gaskets installed the wrong way!! I put them in right and wow it runs like a top. A great motor combo with plane!!

Yes it is the Kangke Waco. It does fly really well but a little heavy at 16.5lbs with smoke system installed too.
