The old fashioned way?
I meant by controlling the sticks myself.
funny thing is... the best I've ever seen Jim fly was
at this past Nats, F3J.... when nothing was stuck in
his ear....
Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment but I was on a great team with great
help. I was really humbled by the weather conditions in the flyoffs,
personally I was not too pleased with myself that day.
Please people... since it's allowed in AMA
competition... PLEASE use your picolarios.... since
AMA allows it... and cuz you guys forget to fly the
model while you're intently listening for lift....;-)
I'm sorry... but I feel the things should be
disallowed in competition... Should we use them in
hand launch too?
So if you think they don't help, why do you feel they should be disallowed
in competition? ;-)
