ha... no, it rolled forward, just not fast enough. This was quite awhile ago, have since gotten a new motor and it flies fine now.

Thanks for the comments, next one will be a gas job for sure.

Dude check out my nexstar nitro flight in high winds.Keep on flying man!!!

[drjohnleathers]

Just did, awesome! Tell us about the camera setup you've put together. Got a video of it, or a weblink?

[flyinsohigh007]

you should have asked for the gas one its 100xs better and way more powerful

[drjohnleathers]

Yeah, think you're right. Still first flight and a thrill for me once I got her up. Unfortunately I was so excited I forgot to extend the antenna... Live and learn.

What motor did you put in it?

Thanks

A thorough pre-flight check would have prevented this. Too many people out there did not understand what was going on!

@ryan000s i thought the same thing mate.....could be prop the wrong way.

[bruiserhzj]

silly question....but....was the prop on the right way? coz when i was new to rc i made the same mistake!! engine sounds like it has the revs but not the thrust.

[eclipser2004]

Wrong Prop ? It is an electric prop?

Man, I saw a kid flyin one of these a few days ago and it was plenty fast enough. Do you really want to mess with nitro?

good too see your enjoying the plane and all,but the comment about landing on a car,is very real!! and its a Insurance /lawsuit waiting too happen,trust me it almost happened too me!!,if your stil into flying and stuff,look for a local Flying Club and get a MAAC.
