Goodbye Juliet - Hello Sojourner!

After the untimely demise of T-Rex 450 PRO DFC "Juliet", there's only one thing any self-respecting RC heli addict can do to ease the pain ...

... buy a bigger helicopter!

Juliet's replacement is "Sojourner" - a T-Rex 550 PRO DFC. This is about Flight number 20 for her.

Be warned - shop on an iPhone - so at a minimum you need to run the clip in full 1080P HD and full screen. Not my greatest flying - was pretty windy and only my 2nd flight of the day (so not warmed up yet) (well that's my excuse anyway!)

Enjoy!

    1. Hello - thanks :)

      Yep - Flying more than ever; trying to average 0.5 hours per day this year, and am keeping ahead of the schedule so far.

      Not having a lot to do with HF these days - too many people just want to argue with anything and everything. Plus, one of my posts didn't go down too well with a moderator - and his arrogant PM to me about it didn't go down too well with me! So that's pretty much where we left it.
