Spring Weather... the Good, The Bad, & The Ugly!
While it's nice to have warmer temperatures... Mother Nature is definitely a woman(no pun intended)... Wind one day, rain one WEEK, back to a cold day... Couple hours of good.. Back to rain.. aaauurrgg!!! I know some of u guys have it ruff weather wise... A lot more than I.. But this is my weekend off! Yesterday I spent the majority of the day doin chores & was gonna spend the eve at the field w the fellas.. Even got there a little early.. Beautiful day... The wife called and wanted to go to the Greek Fest down town when she got off work... So I spent a whopping hour & a half at the field... Truck loaded too.. 450..550..N5C..RCX..transmitter box..battery box..charger/power supply box..starter box..fuel..table..chairs..canopy..generator...cooler iced w sodas. Ready for some serious RC fun! Didn't even get unloaded & set up.. Burned off 4 packs on the 550 & 3 packs on the quad. I said "I'll go in the morning".. Went to the Festival and did enjoy time with the family... But I wanted to fly... So then I woke to this crap!

Weather here has been hit or miss. I got lucky today, started off cloudy at 1000 then by 1200 it was sunny. I got out in the front yard today and worked on more tuning. I think I am almost ready for the big field.

Re: Spring Weather... the Good, The Bad, & The Ugly!
if it make you feel any better clay i made the 30 min walk to a field got there and had zero response from the rudder on my quad and the it starts doing piros all on it own (very gracefully might i add), I had flashed it last night and took it for granted that it would all work. Ha fool!
And to top it off its just taken me 2 hours to reflash it, stupid com port error.
