I've never broken something and laughed so hard before.
Wow guys so yesterday I went out to fly one of my RC airplanes. the cheapy trainer one that I still tool aroudn with. it's an electric 4ch parkflyers begin air. was great to learn on but now I have nitro planes that are much funner.
so me and my dad were just toolin around at the local park. we always laugh because if you build enough eairspeed dive then pull up into a loop the wings can hardly take the G's and the really flex. well I was flying it and it got into a really strong updraft. sorta like birds to. it just kept circling and going up. so I just let it keep going. got I dunno how hi up but I could barely see it too well. so then I just went into a full 90 degree straight down dive.
motor screaming as she plummets towards earth like a rocket. then about thrity feet off the ground I apply full up elevator and move into a loop. right as I level out and start to climb I hear a loud BANG. I then see as my right wing about an inch towards the body from the aileron control surface has literally sheared off the plane. It then was still tied on to the plane by the aileron servo wires and it acted like a helicopted rotor and brought it back to earth very nicely. I was literally rolling on the ground laughing. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY HYSTERICAL. I mean it was just sooo damn funny. I really need to figure out how to do photobucket or w/e so I can just get some pics of it cuz it's hilarious. sheared it right in half lol. wellp i think i'm just gonna duct tape it and try and fly it again lol just because I can.

photobucket seems easy to me.... go make an account... goto "my album"... upload your pics... and go one at a time...while making the post... just double click on the image link... it'll show a balloon window saying somthing copied... then paste it into the post and they just change the [IMG} and the [/IMG to [IMG] and {/image}and it should work just fine..

you can also upload through youtube and goggle video.
Ive got some vids of my t-maxx doing cartwheels. . .it's amazing how much abuse these things can take before something breaks. . .then the slightest bump at 2mph the thing completely falls apart[:@]
oh, Ive also got a vid of it jumping about 12 feet in the air. . .busted the engine mount on that one

O I know not to exceed the speed but I've kinda been trying to see what would happen to the plane. it was a real cheapy foamy type deal that is meant to teach you how to fly nothing more really. It was just so funny to see it just rip off in midair.

you have a tmaxx awesome. So do I. I lvoe RC trucks and planes. I've had my TMAXX for about 5 years now. It's a tmaxx 2.5. I love it. first engine lasted 12 gallons of 20% nitro 18% oil. now on second engine which is just my old engine but I rebuilt it, new piston/sleeve/conrod and all. I want to get more of them. lookin at the Revo 3.3, Losi LST2 and savage X 4.6. but i've been spending on planes now.
will photos from my cell phone work with Photobucket??? because I don't have a digi camera just my cell phone. It's a good pic of it too. plus I got pics of our well pump at home and the wiring so I gotta pm them to baja and triton so they can tell me whether or not I have it wired properly to run on a generator and not feedback through to the breaker box.
