Got a few pictures from a guy at our field today that was snapping pics of me flying my Comp-Arf eurosport. I've only got about 8 or 9 flights on it, and i already love it. anyways, here's some pics:

I'm no aviation expert but that doesn't look like an F-18 to me.

Skarn · 01-04-2009, 10:05 PM

Where does he say anything about an F18?

Man, that thing looks bad a$$!

Hey, where's the required fire extinguisher in the 1st pic???

and weren't you wearing the same clothes in your maiden pics???

DominicD · 01-05-2009, 01:03 AM

Thats the same clothes he has worn in EVERY photo i have ever seen him in, i guess you have to cut corners to save money somewhere.

Skiddz · 01-05-2009, 01:18 AM

So what does he wear when he does laundry??? Wait.. I don't want to know...

Pinecone · 01-05-2009, 08:32 AM

I like the grass fire during start.

So how are the landings on that grass field?

I have only seen rc jets flying off of a 10,000ft runway (and the jet guys still seem to always be farting with the landing gear).

landings aren't a problem at all.. with the Eurosport the longest ground roll i have had was 50 feet. they are typically about 20 feet.

Skarn · 01-07-2009, 08:34 AM

Ok, I have to ask....how much does a jet like that cost? I've been playing around a lot lately with the EDF jets and they are dirt cheap.

Figure $2000 minimum for the turbine engine only.

Nice!

Sounds like a winner. Eurofighters have great high alpha performance which I am sure helps with the landings.

Have fun and fly it like a foamy!
