Not really much of a turnout at Ackerman today. But it was supposed to be stormy & windy as the day went on, too. (And, it was looking pretty nasty by the time we left around 11:30.)
1st up is video of Scott testing some ABC 3 blade props on his HPR twin. Actually several short runs put together as he was moving batteries to change cg and adjusting stingers trying to get the porpoise out of it.
Next up Dave and his Titan P mono. Might have got just a touch too close on marker 2 Dave.
This one almost didn't run at all today. I got almost to the lake and realized I forgot to put the transmitter for it in my box. (dumb
) Luckily I had a spare Rx for my Tactic radios in my pit box so bound it to one of the transmitters I did bring. My Falcon cat. Been a while since this one has been in the water and my driving shows it. It's still a blast to drive though. Thanks Dave, for running the camera.
Rich's Spartan. Testing with a new Turnigy 180 ESC on board. Couple of short runs combined with a prop change along the way.
Jeremy showed up today with his 1/16 E-Revo car so shot a little video of it. It's a bit "twitchy" but will do some nice wheelies when it gets traction.
Finishing out the day with another run of Dave's Titan.

thanks for the vids Bill.
Doing some research thru a top notch HPR builder on the other side of the pond, I got some helpful pointers on my set up. So I cant wait to make the necessary adjustments and try again. I was also pointed in the direction of another set of props that will be great for sport running and out perform the 447s.
Only upsetting piece of the puzzle is I wont be in town for the next TnT

Don't feel bad Scott. I won't be here for the 2nd Sunday run in October either. Going to the Wattfest fly-in for the 12-13th.

It's been a while but we managed to run a little today. A typical cooler weather Sunday at Ackerman.
I think 6 boats started, only 2 finished in this LSO heat

Next up Hugh's Pay n Pak 1/8 scaler. Been so long since he ran it that it was being cantankerous.

Dave brought along one of the Redcat Racing cars he's started selling so shot a little video of it. This one was pretty fast on the pavement.

A little solo running of Ray's "candy coated shell" Avenger. (I like that graphics scheme.) He, Hugh, and I ran a couple of heats of Q as well but no video of that.

Last one today. Scott running his HPR through some 6s saw passes with X450/3 props.
I think the peak speed reading was around 76 or 77 mph by the GPS.

Actually I lied. Here's my last one for today. It was shot about a month ago, and not even a boat. But, it's one of those flights where I was really happy with the landing.
