I've noticed the youtube ads too. I think proboards is embedding the ads you you hit the Tube button. My workshop was password protected, I'm not sure that I got a PM with my password but if I did... well its gone now. Sorry. I'm going to try a few different ways to post videos to see if I can make it happen without ads. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDjf9-ouWLg <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YDjf9-ouWLg&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YDjf9-ouWLg&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> |

haha... yeah... I don't have one of those, I just inherited a bunch of stuff along the marriage / divorce / ex girlfriend path. My daughter is my decorator. She wants to go to school for it. She's got some talent.

Hmmm.My daughter rescues endangered and neglected pets.
You should see MY house.Mutts rats and cats everywhere.
I'm both proud as hell and ready to strangle her with a cat tail at the same time.
Does that qualify as non heli related?LOL

Hey dooz.Why the Super Skids on the TREX 250?
Is it a little unstabile?

Hey dooz.Why the Super Skids on the TREX 250? Is it a little unstabile? Sorry mac, I originally only meant to have this post as test post.... but... anyway.... I put superskids on the 250 because the the stock skids are sucky. I wasn't used to the negative pitch on it and I cut power too far to fast and it sucked to the floor. It snapped both skids. I knew it wouldn't have broken super skids though... it added a little weight.... but the heli doesn't seem to notice it. |

I've never seen a 250 up close.
So I assume you were hovering in Idle Up then?

no, but I might as well have been.... I was in normal mode but my pitch curve was still 0, 25, 50, 75, 100 @ -12 to +12. In my eagerness to go fly it, I failed to set my pitch in normal mode. Like I said, the hit wouldn't have been enough to snap Super Skids. So I thought while I'm learning this heli, at least, I'll keep Super Skids on it.
