running right, well chuffed, sorry to post this but no body understands the
frustration or gives a sh.t here :-) :-)

can learn how to get from a hover to moving while still in control i.e the
wind just takes over and spend my time waiting to regain control :-) where
are you anyway are you ? I get the feeling maybe bolton ?

You don't learn by watching anyone fly, you learn by gettting out there and
pushing yourself every time you pick up the Tx. I'd be happy to give you
some tits and himps though.

Would be good to get some good advise from a seasoned pro :-) I had a
failure tonight though on my Raptor 50 the servo that sits in the pitch arm
failed and brought me down to earth totally trashed well all the usual you
would expect to break :-( is servo failure common ? it just try's to work a
bit if I move it with my finger.

Servo's DO fail (obviously) but it's not "that" common. A lot depends on
WHICH servo and which make too, but it's a case of "sh.t happens"

proper tuition :-) If you can spare the time ?. :-)

Sorry for the delay in replying Rob, I've been up to my tits in all kinds of
sh.t this week, but things are getting back to normal (just u to my bollocks
now:-)

E-mail me for a phone number if you want.

Do the obvious stuff with my E-mail addy.
