New Sponsor!

I am glad to have the opportunity to fly blades from Czech company MS Composit! I can say only good things about them :) Precise, aggressive but easy on the engine :) I appreciate that a lot since I have not yet found the best ballance between cyclic and collective.. True, in a bit of wind slightly nervous in forward flight but that's expectable with the length of 620mm. Satisfaction and I think that is what counts ;)

Soon I will post some more info and pics :)

New Baby In The Light Of The Earth :)

After the great event in Trutnov I decided to get a new baby.. I simply could not resist... So there goes my new X50 Titan!!
Built in one day.. that's what happens if you have enough eagerness ;)



Simply cool machine!!!!

And so it goes... Trutnov Heli Meeting 2011

A week after the GHM me and Phillip we went to Trutnov to meet some more heli freaks :)
The weather was a dream! Sun, warm, a bit of wind..
First after arrival we met with Martin MadBox Bednar, excellent heli pilot :) but to watch all the great pilots fly made us a bit frustrated.. With shaking hands and knees I took my Raptor on the stage.. Well, that's how one feels when he thinks, he can fly :D After couple of minutes of struggling with these obviously not fitting blades for me I handed her over to Pavel Kefurt who was also in Trutnov for the meeting. I would have never imagined that something like this is possible with a standart Raptor! Slow Tic tocs, low piroflips, hard push outs.. anything you could possibly find in a heli book!!

Later afternoon I got to talk to Stepan Skorpil (nickname Krtek) and we spent the whole time talking and working on my Vibe which had troubles with fine tuning. Couple of more flights followed including my Vibe and also Phillip flew great and smooth!

In the evening we had a beer and unfortunately because of me feeling sick (I blame the sun for it) we had to go to the pension so we missed the night flights :(

At last I want to thank the great organisation, awesome flying show by all the present pilots and a lot of fun!!

The next year again! Yeah!




German Heli Masters Augsburg 2011

Hey!

Finally I got to write about things that happened in the past couple of months..

It started one September Saturday, exactly the 10th. I and my dad were heading Augsburg.. Well, that was actually my first Heli Event ever! Excitement? YES! It was an awesome and hot day.. The place was crowded with people and HELIS! :) FreakWare, Holonatix, Torsion Blades, Thunder Tiger, BeastX etc.
 We were first walking around and I had a little chat with Petr Novotny at the Torsion Blades stand. There I met Pavel Kefurt, the Team pilot Thunder Tiger Int. and his dad, Petr Kefurt.. From then on we have been talking about a lot of stuff regarding heli flying and I learned a lot of new stuff and met a lot of people :) I got to talk with the Manager of Thunder Tiger Europe Jörk Hennek.
Of course I can't leave out the actual flying site. What else to say than awesome flights, breath-taking smackdown in hands of Pavel and outstanding atmosphere.. Too bad I could not stay there through the next day but next year I sure will do :)
