[quote="Ah Pong"]一個唔開心既回憶,神州史汀,安息了!

Dear Pong Pong

Don't be too sad ! You are not alone ! In fact I've almost experienced every kind of crash in June and eventually my beloved Destiny (White/Red/Blue) was eventually killed :

>> 2nd week of June : Freq crashed even performed pre-check, she crashed from directly into the ground after 7 secs of flight. Nose completely destroyed up to wing root !

>> 3rd week of June : Replaced by an old fuse, air crashed her v-tail with a little pylon racer, crashed and fixed. Fly again, fog came, attempted to emergency - failed - eventually crashed into rocks at high speed. Her main spar splited into three pieces, death !

>> 4th week of June : No more Destiny to fly, switch to a 90% new MiniBlade, batt fully charged but after 3 mins of flying, batt failed (total lost control) and she glided by herself to FNS Eastern slope and crashed there, one side of the wing broken !

>> 4th week of June : Another day, test fly a new plane (secrety weapon), even all control surfaces were seriously tested but don't know why one side of the aileron got mechanical jam (like spileron not able to flip down) - No need to tell, spin and crash !

As you see, freq crash, air crash, landing crash, batt failure, mechanical jam bala bala all happened to me in June ! Just hope July and onwards will be better for everyone !

I guess what made us sad was not simply losing the planes but the planes did carry lots of building / trimming effort, great experience, nice memories with them, right ?!

In anycase, with your nice building skills and passion to fly, you will be living with some great planes very soon ! Cheer up !


Wing

Ah ya, secret weapon - NOT BIG F3F ships like Viking / Aris / RaceM / NYX / Sting etc ... will PM you and please don't tell anyone ah 8)


I can't PM you. It seems that the program has some problems.

I searched and found some photos of your plane, it is a nice plane! Can't say more for it is your secret 8) (But why is it a secret :roll: :?: In our cases model planes should only be kept secret to the wife, girl friend or mom, not among us. OK OK no need to tell me :wink: See you and your plane in Aug F3F :o )

Mr.

Are you serious? 9.73 meters is more than 30 feet bor. When did you saw it at FNS, it is a real glider or RC? :?:

I meant paraglider. I saw it flying up and down at the left hand side of FNS.

It's impossible for paragliders to fly up and down in FNS.
It was a power kite you saw :wink:

:roll: Not sure whether it was a paragider or not b'coz I was watching there in Kwun Tong at that time. The exact location should be the mountain at the leftmost of FNS. (向基維爾那邊最遠的那一個山。有時係半山,有時飛得高過個山)

呢排南風天D傘佬多數去大嶼山長沙或者係大陸大亞灣既小鷹嘴飛﹐估唔到有人會去飛鵝山。其實基維爾個邊應該都飛得傘架﹐個邊有地方鋪傘起飛﹐尋日好猛太陽﹐弱風﹐個邊D熱氣流應該好好﹐有高度計協助下可以盤到好高﹐萬一唔得可以直 sir 落西貢搵地方降落﹐好似馬鞍山咁。

今日天氣預報原本係 4-5 級東風﹐囉左半日假諗住去石澳練 F3F. 點知結果依家係度上網 .....
