Wet and windy here again and no chance of flying for a while. One of the few flyable days yesterday, but was at a funeral😪 Make the most of it toto.

20 mph winds grounds many pilots with large planes unless you want to go slope soaring

That's some impressive flying hours considering the weather we've had this winter.

A Big Beautiful Doll schemed Acrowot, cool!👍

The fact that they are more of a challenge to build and fly is the reason I'd buy a twin. I can't see the fascination of all these warbirds that all fly/ look the same. If I wanted that I'd camouflage my acrowot! 😉

Thanks, don't think I'll ever understand the theory. But just realised I should fly more in the wind especially as the plane knows nothing about it.😉

Doesn't air speed reduce with tailwind so requiring more throttle? Making a beep pointless.

FAI aerobatics require constant speed in manoeuvres, that involves constant throttle manipulation to achieve. so I would of thought that throttle control is probably the most used/ practiced. Is a beep that helpful?

Surely that would only work if the wind speed is constant and the model trimmed for that speed, what happens on the downwind leg?

This could give you some ideas https://youtu.be/8klnH1vLHbc?si=6Sv_VKACB7nI2cDR

Forecast for single figure winds tomorrow at last . Batteries being charged ready to hopefully make the most of it. Probably be on my own as the temps are going to be low with the wind chill.

That didn't last long!!🤣

Where do you live Toto? I think I'll open up a model shop at the end of your road.😉

It's been that bad down here I've thought about moving North, but I came to my senses😉

The reality in the South, is the strong cold winds forecast seem to have been here forever and there looks to be no change in the foreseeable future.
