1st airborne take off and land safely

about this morning fly, my team and i flew at a school field. my cessna take off with a short runway, and it flies smoothly. by making a fixed angle to the flaps, the aircraft float slowly..(before this, i ve used the flaps and connect it to channel 6 but it keeps pitching because of the lift from the flaps effect). apploud

it is really a worth while during the flight. its like the times stop ticking with my eyes closely watched the airplane attitude changing when i moved the control stick.

landing manouver is also a great time, the airplane descent on side of me, and touch the grass field. unfortunately the airplane flip over when it touch the grass.

but no injury or damage happened.

for me, a scaled model like cessna is a very good airplane with its scaled model. although it is a small airplane, but it is enough for a fresh beginner like me that learn from a simulator and advised by my experience colleague friend.

hope to take off and land safely after this..

2 x crashed cessna

Salam,

hari ni nak cite pasal cessna skyartec yang dah 2 kali maiden flight. best thing to own an aircraft/airplane although it is a small plane but it is worth a while because we did all by ourself. except the design and fabrication, all the maintenance are done by ourself so we know the art of repairing the airplane.

but one thing, if the airplane is crashed, so the damage is really2 unacceptable. the wing split into two, the engine shaft bend, control surfaces ruined and of course there are lot of thigs happened. thats why for those who are really dont understand on what are they doing on piloting an rc, they are on the wrong way.

today, my cessna have crashed, and this is the second time my cessna crashed.

first crash happened last week, when the front landing gear detached from the airplane. second time crashed when it crashed into trees..hahaha.. but it is quit an experience. although both of the flying crashed, but the cessna survived..thank god...

scaled model airplane

salam..

in the last posting, ive wrote about rc scaled helicopter. from an electric helicopter to a turbine engine helicopter. but, on this post, it is quite different from previous posting, and here i will write about scaled model airplane.

yes, its differs from the helicopter scaled model (i knew you all hoping for me to own a helicopter right !), but i think this point is the best to starts this hobby, before this, my university friend told me, if you want to fly, go get some fixed wing first, and if you have satisfied with the fixed wing, you can go for the rotary wing. at first, i just take his advise lightly, but time after time, i thinked it over and here wa are, scaled model airplane.

Syartec cessna. New one cost about RM540 w/o transmitter. I bought this with RM`150 w/o transmitter 2 nd hand unit with 4 x crashed.  but still can airborne

Registration number N for?

Propeller with no spinner. The propeller have twice popped out from the screw and flying fast foward crashing all infornt of the airplane. but nobody got injured.

Park at hangar and ready to fly for 2nd airborne
