I have a new toy arriving tomorrow :)

Post by Lee »

Just snapped up a bargain today. I have been wanting one for a long time.
Today a friend sent me a message that a guy was selling one.
So after a bit of haggling, it should be in my hands tomorrow.
Can you guess what it is?

If its a heli then maybe a 700 class, if its a quad not sure what brand it would be. Maybe some fpv gear Gopro 4 black.

A DLG, theirs a thought I didnt think of. I think those can be had on the cheap end used. At least the have cheap batteries and power systems.

Disk launch glider. You toss it in the air the same way you throw a diskis. Typically they are 2 servo setups with a receiver, bec and battery. No motor or ESC. They tend to get pricy quickly but you can get them used for a good price. Bruce at RC model review has one from hobby king that he reviewed. It looks very relaxing and forces you to learn your terrain for long flight times.

Here it is.

Got it for a steal. Brand new PNF with battery 70 euros.

I could also have bought this FOX.
But my friend got it first for 30 euros !!!!!!!

Image

If I had more money, I could have bought everything he had for 200 euros. These two gliders and all this too.
But i'm very happy with the Easyglider Pro. Its worth 150 euros alone.
