Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / December 2003Video - Flying My Rap50 yesterday
I managed to get some footage of me flying my 50 yesterday at my flying club. Thanks to Mark for the camera work. The heli gods were on my side - no crashes this time :-)) http://www.runryder.com/gallery/05912/Rappy_ChappyRap50.zip I will post a link to a higher quality version soon.

Question is, do I feel inspired to persevere and improve my flying skills, or pack it all in as I'm so hopeless? Nah, think I'll keep on going :-)), maybe I'll get there one day!

Determination is what it's all about and I still have a LONG way to go. You should see what the good guys can do. There is a new teenage hot shot from the states who's only been flying for 10 months. His flying makes mine look utterly paps :-) SignatureJohn http://www.heligenius.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ John, call that flying. Phwarrr. Actually, pretty effing good mate! Wots that flipping / piro maneouver (yanks note the spelling) at the end? Pretty good that. Wots the kit? Rappy 50 m,echanics and... D Lower!!!!! :-) Andy >I managed to get some footage of me flying my 50 yesterday at my flying >club. Thanks to Mark for the camera work.

I was a bit nervous knowing the camera was aimed at me - I could feel it willing me to crash :-) Still, there's always the next time... SignatureJohn http://www.heligenius.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ Only kiddin' Actually, the amount of spectators are directly proportional to whether you totally screw it up, I find :-) very good though :) Andy >> Lower!!!!! :-) > >OK!
