I might even let you take one of mine for a spin if you will help me with a little subtraction.
If I take one of your planes up... it might subtract 1 from your fleet!! I just hope we have good weather for the weekend.

If you have a 10X and Spektrum, we can load the planes into your radio, so more than one can fly at the same time. Just re-bind the receivers to the 2nd tx.

I have a 10SX that I could manually put all the mixing into, for duplicate transmitters, but I don't have a 2nd Spektrum TX module for it. Bring a module, fly a plane

3 people who "Do not crash" have destroyed 3 of my planes, and never given me a penny in compensation. The last was Yuri with my MX-2 . .Sayonnara to about $3500 in airframe, pipes and hardware. Nothing personal to anyone out there, but if you are flying someones plane, you should be able to buy it in case of a mishap.

My WH 41% Extra will be at the Huckfest, as will the BME-115 powered 3m Comp ARf extra. Then there's the Frenzy family of hypermanuverability platforms to confuse anyone who wants to gie them a try. Dunno if I want to let anyone take a crack at my 40% DR-109, it gets a tad snappy at low speeds and high G's, but the big Vess prop will yank it out of any problems as long as the nose is pointed skyward.

I couldn't agree more. I'll rarely take someone else's sticks, only if I'm considering buying that plane or one like it. And nothing more than simple pattern stuff. Even if something completely out of your control happens (radio hit, someone else crashes into you, etc..) it creates a very difficult situation between friends.

Was the MX2 crash with Yuri's Extreme Composites Edge?

No, the MX-2 was being flown by Yuri at Joe Nall on Tuesday 2 years ago, and got midaired by someone with an Aeroworks 35% 260. . basically but the right wing off the MX-2 and it spun into the woods.

Like I said. . there's always the Buddy Box option for you Reyn. .
