JEEZ...don't know why it took so long ( 25 minutes) to load, but well worth the wait...Unfricking real,,,kind of reminds me of when I used to fly RC's;;;;;;;;;;untill his got off the ground how do you come up with this stuff bob?

Takes some skill!

After watching that earlier today, I had to break mine out and charge the batteries! Goin' flyin tomorrow!

That's what it's like when I'm on the pot... I can hear Enya playing and everything. It makes me want to cry & applaud at the same time.

Laser lights & a smoke machine would really make it memorable.

Damn that's some good flying. I'm sure Twin(wing)Spar and PK could do better.

Those electric motors & batteries have come a long way.

Damn dial-up 35 minutes and worth the wait.

Two expensive hobbies are enough!


Posted by: jboomer---------------------

Just got back from flying! Always a good time! As much as I enjoy it, I've got too many hobbies as well! My CRF, I've got a ZX-9 Ninja that I'd love to dress up a little, three R/C airplanes, one R/C car, mountain bike, and my PS2. My wife says I'm worse than the kids! But I'm having fun!

I can't do better but I can go lots faster. It would be kinda hard to fly a 130mph wing in that small of a space. LOL

I fly RC planes. I even have one just like the one in the video. I wish I could fly mine as well! Those Lithium Polymer batteries will burn your house down if you don't know what you're doing! I race the gas and electric RC cars as well. As long as you're not wrecking them, the planes are a LOT cheaper. They don't break all the time like the cars do. Both are fun as hell though. Matt

I'm still scared of LiPoly even though my wing runs on 3800ma Lipo's. They only get charged with supervision... and a safe distance from the house. It's scary what these cells will do with the right (or wrong) impact... or incorrect charging. Kinda makes me wonder about that cell phone thats glued to my ear....

That was my hobby b4 I got back into mx. Had many planes that I built and crashed. That guy has plenty skills as most of that stuff is not done by the weekend flyer. After I almost cut off my thumb on one of my planes, Josh said "dad lets ride motocross its less dangerous!" lol

I must agree, Enya makes for a memorable moment.

Man that brings back some memories except my memories were of crashing. My 2 smoke habbit went to RC planes when I had to take a break from bikes but I couldn't get out enough to keep the skill level up there. I still had a blast though. That guy in the video was pretty good. I had a hard enough time in a wide open field, much less in a gym
