Flight #4
Posted on Thursday, March 19th, 2009 at 12:01 am by Jeff HoyI’ve been busy the last couple weeks and haven’t really had time to try flying my Axe CPv3. That changed today as I took it out this evening just before sundown and managed to get about 10 minutes of stick time in. I’m happy to say that it was actually very successful. I didn’t really crash or break any parts. It’s the first time I went out with a fully charged battery and came in with a fully dead battery and nothing broken. I did have one close call when the main blades struck the ground, but I managed to recover and not cause any significant damage.
I managed to actually fly my heli around a little bit, nothing fancy because it was in my backyard, but it was off the ground and I was somewhat in control. Overall I’m going to call this flight a success and I’m looking forward to trying again tomorrow.
