Re: Giants From South Africa
Yeah, that was a good day! I had four flights without ripping my landing gear out! Not everyone was so lucky though
 The funiest incident was Damions "wall", the plane left the wing behind! Only damage was a broken landing gear and prop, the wing floated down safely. Wish someone had caught that on camera.

Re: Giants From South Africa
hey J
well when I get some time i will edit it . I might wait till this weekend and then combind the footage into one killer vid . Cause last sundays footage wasn't as good as the previous weekend. Anyways the vid from the VD last night will be up in the morning its a killer vid so watch out for it. I have spoken to Rael and I think we are going to have to pull out of the group for the FG foamies cause we are going to put together some new 28% ELECT EDGE 540's. And they are going to cost a fortune. Hope its not to much of a hassle. Cheers Trev |

Re: Giants From South Africa
Hi Damien,
3 a day make for very boring reading...LOL By the way, I have received your Fax and I am awaiting more? The Servo in my avatar is the new Dymond DS 9900 digital coreless 17KG metal gear Servo. I Import these, great servos for next to nothing. Oh and it runs directly off 7.4 V at 19KG with some ridiculous speed. We have tested them now for 8 months, and there has been no failures or glitches. Talk to Trevor, he is using one, I think. Regards Andreas |

Re: Giants From South Africa
I've had a couple queries since you guys did some indoor flying
 The Electric Shocks must have made quite an impression on people. Let us know when the video is up |
