Dang! Nice machines! Just curious, how do you decide the who flies when? Is there a draw for time slots?

Looks like loads-o-fun!

Hello, Yes, the Corsair Model Airplane Club is very organized. At an event like this all the transmitters still on FM frequencies are quarantined until a pilot wants to fly. There are pins with the frequency numbers on them to correspond to the various transmitter frequencies. You must have the pin or you can't fly. This way you can't have one person shoot down another. We also have Field Marshals to make sure there aren't to many people in the air at the same time.

Thanks

OK Dude. Maybe I'm over sensitive, and I apologize for that, but I have some of the best friends the world can provide. Some of them are Veterans who fought to preserve my way of life, so I'll stick up for them right to the end. Other than that these are all really great people.

I'm glad you liked the video though. If you have time take a look at the helicopter video. It's an exact replica of the Huey one of our club members flew in Viet Nam.

What makes you think you can come on my channel and insult my friends without me having something to say about it? Do you think your funny? what's funny is you don't even know what the word means! You're a young punk in a far away country that doesn't like Americans. Maybe you should take a visit to some of the cemeteries in your country that have thousands of Americans that died for your freedom!

Good observation. Actually this is an APC nitro prop. It does have a slightly different shape to the blade than what you would expect from APC. It is alot like an electric prop. Take a look at the full line of APC props. You should see some there. I use them all the time.

Thanks for watching.
