Broken Tail Gears

Second flight - stripped the tail gears out - making flying a bit dizzy... Luckily this was a 10 min fix - have to order some spares now :)

Walkera 4G6S First run

So - here it is spinning up for the first time. Nothing dramatic and I am taking it very slow! Made a couple of hops... but no serious flight yet... to be honest - am not sure if it is set up properly yet - have lots of reading to do!

Walkera 4G6S - RC Helicopter

Been wanting a rc heli for several years - but the technology just wasn't able to provide what I wanted. Well, at last I found something suitable after reading a Wired ad. It's small, electric, fully articulated and way WAY less than the £1200 I was looking at a few years back. I got a pack with 5 spare blade sets and bought some training gear :)

Tree Disaster!

Disaster - it appears a tree has fallen over and crashed through our fence at the back of the house.... Luckily there appears to be nothing hurt other than the fence panel. Am now wondering how to remove said tree without causing any more damage...
