Re: [RCSE] Mythbusters: Concrete Glider
It'll probably fly OK in water. In air it might have to travel a bit fast. It reminds me of my days years ago as a very impoverished English person. A friend had a minivan and come the MoT (annual vehicle test) it was condemned when the tester put a hammer through the rusted read subframe. Not having the money to fix or replace the subframe was made good by filling it with concrete and then coating it with underseal. The friend says to me at the time "Lets see him put a hammer through *that*". Thirty years later the vehicle still exists. Concrete has its uses; I don't think its going to have much of a future as a wing core material, though.

[RCSE] FS - NYX
The carbon NYX platform has been one of the sweetest flying aircraft I have ever owned. We have slope condition around here that rival anything worldwide. This aircraft was my first choice for showing folks just how fast (>270mph), agile (I caught it consistantly even fully ballasted), and truely aerobatic (large vertical eights). Some of you out there know what I mean when you have a "real" sweet-spot for certain airframes, for the slope this is mine. However...dumb thumbs due to brain-fade recently had it hovering in front of my hand during a catch, only to input the incorrect command and cause it to slid down on the left wingtip and blow back onto it's tail. The result is a fracture at the fin base and a smunched left tip. Being low to the GND and no forward speed (sloping conditions) during this period of brainless showing off, the damage is repairable, but I'm way too busy. I carefully installed the equipment in this particular NYX to help varify parameters in parallel to designs/experiments for setting an F3B speed record. Other than the recent incurred damage it is in excellent shape (linkages very tight, etc). Blue bottoms, white tops, with blue/yellow tips. Includes the HP PnP harness (22awg TEFLON) with Wing-Maxx+ on AIL, 94141's on ELEV/FLP, and a small MG on RUDD. An LED voltage display is visible thogh a neat little slot in the CF canopy. Includes a 5cell NiCD pack, and a full ballast set (plus dummy plugs). So my loss is someone else's gain, First $700 takes it. Hi-res pics available upon request.
