OSE forums are packed with legends Douggie and if I was counted amongst the least then my life would not have been wasted. Man there are some great people in this world and most of them own model boats.

Gave my Xzess 2 a run this morning on the M645 prop I wanted to test it on. I was hoping to break 80 mph on 3s but no such luck. It was 2 kph slower than on an M545 so I guess it is back to the M545 and try a few other tricks and see if I can reach 80 mph. It appears the M645 is just too much prop for the setup as everything was hotter and the speed down a touch but it was going into a slight head wind.

Setups
3s lipo, andym M545, Neu 1515 0.5 Y, Hydra 240 lv = 126 kph or 78.29 mph
3s lipo, andym M645, Neu 1515 0.5 Y, Hydra 240 lv = 124 kph or 77.05 mph

I need to go just 3 kph (129 kph) faster to break 80 mph on 3s. I have a few ideas of my own but if any of you speed demons have any ideas please let me know.

Paddy, I got the Blade CP Pro. It was a good deal at $125.00 but I need to get it set up properly.

P.S. sorry for the quality of the picture.

Video of it's capabilities ...

Thanks for that Chuck. A nice looking copter and handles the outdoors well, as the video shows. Is it hard to learn to fly?

I haven't tried it yet, I am going to get a training kit that gives it a much wider foot print first. From what I hear it won't be easy.

Paddy, I picked up the training kit today along with a simulator program. I think the simulator is harder than the real thing in ways. here is a picture of the 2 for comparison.

Hey Wayne ever hear of a Flaming a$$hole thats Drambuie in a shooter glass then lit on fire - then down the hatch . I got pretty good at doing these and it was a real crowd pleaser if you could set the glass down and its still on fire . one evening drinking with friends I waited to long and when I tipped it up I burnt my lips and in the process spat it all over the microwave lighting that on fire . Certainly got me out of the habit of doing those to often .

Drambuie - one of my all time favorite shooter drinks -

I have one off those micro copters + its larger brother - unbelievable control for such a small craft and cheep like borscht

Ouch. Your a braver man than me Peter. Too much Kentucky Fried Chicken gives me the Flaming a$$hole the next day and I think I will stick to that. It is better than being toasted at both ends

Thanks for the pic Chuck. There is quite a size difference. I will see how you go before I buy a Blade I think. Even my glider is only 3 channel and that took a bit of getting used to. That's why I do boats, and Douggie will tell you I have trouble with straight lines with them

Do you have to reboot that thing often? Now I know what goes on @ PCApplications

I have to agree with you on the KFC Patty - to much of that and you have to put a seatbelt on when you sit down on the john - good ole bucket of toilet buster

Not so much as refill...
It has aided the release of some very innovative electronics...

OMG, that's what I have been doing wrong. One of those will save me throwing my DVD movies away after I use them. Bloody ingenious Doc. Who would have thought... re-useable DVD's!!!
