First Aussie Pro Bro

[notorious_benny]

Oh contrare my young friend. I drop into theprofilebrotherhood.com nearly as regularly as I drop into the giants.

I just dont need to post all that often. 10 would be a lot for Australia. Getting ten pilots in the one spot with enough ability to do it would be the problem, not getting 10 profiles together.

You need to be able to hover for the entire length of your tank. I reckon I could hover/TR my tank out if I wanted to but it gets pretty boring if there arent any other models in the air to do it with.

Remark 1, not a truer word has been spoken Not ragging on Aussie pilots, just their lack of enthusiam for the flatness.

Number 2, also very true. It gets boring by yourself. I found that yesterday, that I had more fun with evern just one pilot as stupid as me there

ALRIGHT

Video 3 is up. (video 2 will follow tomorrow lol)

This is me and Owen lettin our hair down one last time yesterday. I get my butt royaly kicked in the vert drag race. Almost need a change of underwear after my Yak-off, and Owens Kat goes down after his clunk is thrown the the front of the tank after his awesome Yak-off.

Here we go http://www.flyinggiants.com/gallery/...o=6509&cat=606

Thats all from me today but I will resize video two for tomorrow, Supernatural is on soon

Nice vid's Marcus

I can see that by the end of a full days flying you guys were getting pretty comfortable on the sticks. Glad you were able to go home with as many planes as you started with.

I was getting very comfortable by the end of the day. I was a bit annoyed (at myself) that I damaged the Kat a bit earlier so I couldn't fly it later on. Sunday was the first time I had her DOD and I have never felt so comfortable harriering down that low before. It is just a world apart from the Bad Boy in that area.

The Yak-off is the most insane thing you will ever try Mine weren't as low as Owen's but man are they an adrenalin pumper. I guess this weekend they get lower

Here's a couple of pics of my old sig fazer. This was the plane I learnt to hover on. Unfortunately I decked it about 2 years ago and never replaced it. I think I will soon though.

[notorious_benny]

Looks like you did a proper job on that Sig Rusty!

If you need a Mojo built (And dont wanna do it yourself) I can frame it up for you, but I hate. I repeat hate covering the damn things so that would be up to you.


And a question for you profile gods! What is a Yak off?? have you got vid??

If you want a nice easy harrier definitely get the Mojo! I can harrier mine up and down the strip at will, and its pretty easy to turn. My sledge used to harrier allright but it was a dog to turn while still doing a true harrier!

A Yak-off was started by Jeremy Chinn, designer of the Boxxer and the Chinn-Yakk. You start with a fairly long take-off roll and get a fair bit of speed up. Then jam all the sticks down in the bottom left or right Essentially a snap take-off. Owen did some rippers in video three, I did one but I let it carry a bit in the air before my snap. I am going to try and get mine down this weekend. I'll whack together a quick video of some, bear with me for a half hour or so.

[notorious_benny]

I know what you mean now!

Takeoff/snap to hover!!

[Fly-guy]

Thats the one. Not even neccesarily to a hover, thats just how Owen does em

They are gauranteed to scare the hell outta ya!

Yeah it went in pretty hard. I was doing waterfalls at the time getting lower and lower. Then it fell into a KE spin and hit the dirt before I could catch it. It was pretty funny. It didn't 3d all that well, but it hovered like a champ. I'll be looking at a mojo after the new extra is built. I need a thrasher...

[notorious_benny]

I have a spare mojo kit here that I am thinking of getting started on soon. I reckon you need a backup, they are far to much fun to be outta action for to long.

I am also thinking of purchasing the CHinn Yak kit from the states. Pretty pricey to get over here but I like the look of the way they fly.

Are you close to getting some vid of the yak online?? Would like to see how it looked

Great photo's Benny, and yes i was impressed with the hover hand launches later in the day, would have been great to get some of that footage, very good video rusty, thanks for posting it. I am off wednesday will see you at the field ben, need to sort out the DA's tuning
