Here is my 2nd flight, the first flight was a quick vbar tuning. It flys great other than it sounds like I need to change the governor gain on the Talon and maybe tweak the Vbar some; but other than that this helicopter is sweet

. It flys like it is on rails!

Quick tip while I watch the rest of your video... See the picture below. You'll have less if an issue getting the canopy on if you position the head differently. DFC links were actually easier with the blades perpendicular to the body, but not with HPS.

Thanks!. The canopy really sucks to get on, and I was sort of wondering if there was a trick to it. I will try that next time.

Yeah... It takes getting used to. Turn the head as in my pic and it'll be much easier.

NICE flight, btw!!!

That wasn't an "average joe" flight!

Very nice! Love that it still have that Goblin sound.

BTW.. this is an excellent mod from the main SAB forum... Im going to do this today.

Thanks guys. I think I might do that before my canopy gets all cracked up. Even if you turn the head the right way and hold your tongue a certain way, over time the canopy will start to get all cracked, and that mod doesn't look to bad either!

In Norway, we live and fight with the polar bears, and we freeze a lot.
But we still get to fly some heli's once in a while too.. I dont know how to fly, but I enjoy the pleasure of it

I think your gains are a little high. I heard some wag during fast forward flight.

Nah, that's just how they keep their heli's de-iced there

That looks like good flying to me...

Man, 2 weeks ago we were whining about how cold the breeze was in the field out here but after seeing all you die hards flying in the snow I think I'll shut my mouth from now on. Lol. I guess we're a bunch of sissy's out here in Ca. Keep the video's coming guy's, I enjoy watching. Thanks for sharing

What you mean whining? I actually had to wear jeans instead of shorts on Sunday. That Orange County weather is brutal. Haha jk. Serious, I get frostbite just watching you guys fly. Mad props!
