Just a couple of the radio control models down at Lilydale today. The first chopper was setup for training. The second chopper is a bit more aerobatic but comes to an abrupt end ... crashing after what looks like a hung-up fuel line was sucking air
I understand that the fuel line got hung up in the smaller fuel tank - when the heli went inverted the engine started sucking air. Unfortunately he was inverted heading away with not a lot of altitude when it happened.
My favorite brand for helis is Hirobo! All the way!
Good to see people using them.. It is an excelent starting machine and as you grow you can make it an excelent performer for really hard maneuvers.
Sorry about the Raptor man... I can not tell if the problem was with the machine or orientation in that altitude and position.
