RED MAMBA looks awesome. nice color

[Buck Tracker]

Ya I like the red one as well, only wish they would quit using the black as much. Lots of guys have the clear layer peeling I guess

[Bhughes]

Hoping to get out real soon get some more flights in too

Well my brand new Alcom Stealth trailer just blew a bearing and it welded the outer bearing to the spindle, going to get an entire new axle thru warranty but I wonder how long that will take. These dealers have the worst service, I'm doing all of the work right at home myself cause they had no time to look at it till middle of june, brutal. So now I'm back to foamies in the back seat!!

Same kind of service with the 5th wheel I bought it’s brutal out there right now for after the sale service.

Got three flights in this morning. Motor has gained 100 rpm every flight

Wow why so poor service on trailers out there?

Brodie didn't know you had a Prairie Schooner!

I finally maidened my 64" EF MXS EP Baby Metal at Hucking In The Valley last weekend. Well Trev did but I did get a flight on it afterwards.LOL

Was hoping to get some more flights on it this weekend at my Club's Electric Fun-Fly but at the cottage installing railings on my new deck.

Dean my vote is for the EF94" MXS Heavy Metal for your DA70. Started my replacement one two weeks ago trying to get it ready for HIT but that darn four letter word, "WORK" got in the way. LOL!

Jim,
Well these trailer places have a shit load of salesmen and then just a few service techs and they are mostly kids so not a lot of energy back there. Plus the trailer I got came from a dealer 3 hours away so was gonna be impossible to get it down there.

MXS hey, for some reason I've never taken a liking to that plane but I like the yellow blue scheme, if they come out with a lighter V2 then I will seriously consider that. My original hope was to waiting for the 91" extra to get the V2 treatment and new schemes but I've always wanted a Bi-plane and the Mamba can stay in my trailer with wings on all summer, in fact the wings would never come off so ultra convientent to fly.
Later

Dean it’s a blast and nicely made
I’m on my second
