Turnigy Transmitter Bag cold weather tested with history.

We flew in cold weather and rain many times in Southern California when I lived there only 10 miles from the San Onofre Nuclear Reactors. a few years ago as you will see here. We made our own transmitter bags to protect the transmitters in the rain. Well as history seems to always re-invent itself, it was nice to see the Turnigy Extreme weather transmitter bags.
Eric (JoeHandsome99) sent Jeff and I a couple of these bags for Christmas presents. They are a very handy item for our type of cold weather flying. Here we test them out with a little history too. It is great to see them come on the scene again with many improvements over others, and especially our plastic bags. Thanks very kindly for the presents Eric.
Best regards, thanks for watching, and subscribing.

Dave,

Is that a home made catapult in one of those pictures before your flight? If so, what was it's purpose?

[NightFlyyer]

@raykiii Yes. I have made better ones too. Originally I did it just to see if I could, after spending a year on the Aircraft Carrier USS Midway. Today, I launch many of my electric jets, as their arent many long runways out here to use to launch them . They don't take off on snow very well or high grass, so I launch them. See my videos. I call mine the NightFlyyer-A-Pult.

[chickenpoper]

Dave, can you please make a electrically heated Rc controller that warms up the parts you hold onto. :D

[NightFlyyer]

@chickenpoper Haha. Actually in the small area, the body heat or heat packets work just fine, but that sure would be a power grabber and another battery to charge for sure. Thanks.

Great review! I'm flying in the SF East Bay... I had no idea you were originally from this area! WAM just closed its doors, and distributed its remaining funds among the member groups. Concord Model Engineers (my local club) got a bit, dedicated to upgrading the flying circle they maintain. And I noticed a picture of you in uniform... thanks for your service!

[NightFlyyer]

@marhar2 Wow..small world. My first UKIE contest was in Concord! Thanks for your comments. Semper Fi.

[flyingchimp99]

i would throw in some instant heat packs......extra toasty!!! lol great vid!!!

[SkyShinn]

Hi Dave,

Why would I suspicion that the "still" at 2:33 is a "Photo op?" :)!

[donjuanzx9]

@flyingchimp99 hobbyking sells a electric heater for this glove...

[fireblade4727]

Nice job mr Herbert!

[26nosscire]

Cracking idea that never seen a bag like that here in any england model shop.

i know we don't have really cold conditions like that here all the time we only get about -%3 or 4 but still cold when your flying out in it. takecare :-)

[Didgeman80]

I have that bag too. I live in the Yukon and fly foamies in the winter. Sometimes condensation can build inside the bag so be sure to open it up when you get back in to air it out. Also, if you hand launch, you gotta be real quick to get your hand back in that bag, trust me :)

[backintack]

bertone as in Gruppo Bertone? the new concept is pretty cool

[RcHelpDotCom]

Dave, I have been watching your videos all winter thinking you need one of these bags lol. Sadly, here in Oklahoma, we don't need them or this would have gotten me to get one. Great flying and great video as always. Keep up the good work.

[shield400]

There is a European company that has been selling these bags for years. I remember sending you a link to them a year or two ago but seeing as how you get thousands of messages you may has missed it. Nice bag, nice flying.

[kangmana09]

[trumpetplayyer001]

The music is the same as you hear at Texas Roadhouse!
