Aerotech RMS 24/40 E18-4W |
Good weather, but the grass was uncut, and high enough to lose even
something like a Big Bertha if you weren' t pretty careful to keep it in
sight on landing. I had some Copperhead trouble and then, after this
perfect flight, spent more time talking than flying. After a bit,
I decided I wanted one more flight, and found I didn't have any motors
suitable for the Thug, and the only thing suitable for the conditions in
the Spike would have been another E18 -- and I don't think I had any more
of those in the four second delay. |
