    Hello everyone,

    What can I say I have a bit of a heli addiction that all started at the beginning of 2015 when I pulled the trigger on a little Assault 450. At that stage I knew almost nothing when it came to heli flying although I was flying planes and some multi-rotors way before then. Anyways long story short; didn't like it at first(helis) then got better and here we are now where I have a current fleet consisting of an Assault 700, Goblin 700, Goblin 700 Kyle Stacy Edition, Goblin 500, Goblin 380 Kyle Stacy Edition and hopefully a Protos Max V2 sometime in the for foreseeable future haha

    Cheers for reading :)

      Welcome.
      A 450 would seem little after flying a 700, but not so much after flying a Nano CPx. :)

      Awesome... you are truly addicted it would seem. A nice fleet of goblins as well! What tricks can you do? What are you learning?

      Haha cheers mate and yeah I know now :p I learned the hard way when my main gear let go at around 324 flights as I came out of a tic toc and went into a half piro thing haha. Was forced to an inverted landing. She came down alright. One of the blades got a little hurt, dampeners were shot, the gear was nice and flat all the way around and a servo horn broke.

      Haha will do! That is why I am in the process of selling off all my multi-rotor stuff although I will keep the planes.

      Planks aren't all bad...... just less challenging. Admittedly, I'm plotting on purchasing a plank myself. :p

      Really nice flight, the safety Nazis don't like redneck flying in OZ, but mate, you kicked it out of the park, I wish I was drinking a bourbon watching that
