Gday Mr JellyV
I think quads are all the rage now, the heli learning curve is light years steeper and is not everyone's cup of tea.
Having said that these things happen for a reason so I guess she stays with me.
I do enjoy flying her and the sheer presence of her in the air is something I will never tire of, funnily enough after I posted the withdrawn from sale I had a quick hover in the backyard and was more comfortable than I ever have been. It wasn't the usual scary experience I have been used to. Busted a bit of a psychological barrier by chance methinks.
Time to get down to the field and fly the pants off her is on the cards for sure.
Conversion to flybarless may be considered to make her more scale, thanks for planting that thought in me, I'd never considered that.
I also still have the option of throwing her Brotherblondes way for a more serious thrashing.
So I'm happy all round.
Take care mate.
