Wish I could have weather sucks around here. high winds and intermittent rain. I did buy another chassis last night that has less flights on mine with two Fusuno canopies. CCan't wait for it to arrive.

Congrats on the bird.

Ya my out side fly season is over. Watching it snow as I type this.

I know some fly after it snows but being in my chair, it's a field access issue.

Well I have a sad post.

I have enjoyed my SAM and learned a lot with it.

I will be parting with him though.

My club is raising money for a new club house.
I have recently received a promotion with Lynx/OXY Helicopters to: Lynx/OXY Pilot Team manager along with Event manager.

As one of my first event promotions, I have donated SAM and everything 550X I have (parts and canopies) (minuses 3SX, receivers and ESC ) to my club in the name of Lynx. For them to raffle him off at their huge public indoor swop meet March 2015.
As a aid in raise funds for the club house build.

SAM has been a great bird and served me well. You all here have helped me out a lot and I hope I have helped a few newer people out as well.

I'm still building and customizing. Presently I'm doing a Goblin 570 and possibly a second custom one also, 130X and soon a 180CFX. They will be in perspective threads or the Lynx mini forum. You can also follow my progress on my Face Book Page. https://www.facebook.com/rich.wnbfpro

I will still help out if I can with any questions people ask me and pop in here now and then.

If you want you can just PM me. I'm on HF every day just depends on the mini forum or threads I'm in.

In closing.
If your with a club, and they are holding a even please don't hesitate to contact me. Lynx and OXY will do what I can for your club.

OXY just sponsored the Alpine Smack down.

You all are great. Thank you all for everything.

Enjoy your 550X's and Happy Flying.

Thank you.
Should be done soon.
3SX goes on 570 and servo's are ordered.

crashcopterman · 11-30-2014, 02:00 PM

Don't get it done too soon, too much winter left

SAM is going to a good home.
He stepped aside for "The Demon" G-570 all done and awaiting spring. 570 stretched to 600mm, 3SX, BK servo's, CC Edge 130, Quantum 4125-1100Kv. Depending on watt draw for my style flying, may have to drop down to Zeal 570 mains. 130 isn't big enough for hard smack on a stretch Goblin 570, BUT I'm a sport flier so I have to see the logs after the tuning flights/hovers.
