So what's the deal here, are you going to venture from the swamp tomorrow and test out that new can?

Maybe the wife and I can drop by, don't know if she has plans. Being retired she always surprises me with little things to do!

How about the hound? Think he could come along? He loves foam!

I haven't seen many of those Jet Jockeys hover a turbine! Don't get me wrong, they are nice planes, tons of money in them, just not as fun as a good YAK or Extra! I'm just say'n!

Hovering on kerosene is not cheap for sure...

Hey Bob, give me a call if you are going to make it so I can bring you a plane to fly......

Man. it isnt even worth pics... I decided after almost a year to fire the heli back up... started like this:

Pulled out the old glow field box.. it fell apart (glue got brittle)
-put that back together.
Tried to pump fuel (12v was dead)
-put in a new 12v..
Tried to start it (starter was dead)
-charged the starter..
Tried to start it again (glow driver was dead)
-Charged the glow driver

Finally (4 hours later) got it cranked and did some hovering in the front yard.. all was good but some things needed to be tweaked.. Went inside.. did some tweaking.. took it out to the side yard.. On a hill.. started it up.. was hovering... blades + dirt = 140 dollar bill to heliproz...

Stupid helicopters.
