Blast from the past - Saturday mornings


Mark Phillips is a product of the DMAC early Saturday morning RC soaring lessons in the early 90's. Mark then went awol for a decade but micro helicopters prompted him back in to the flying scene. He has got us back in to the healthy habit of 7:30am starts, followed by breakfast at 9:00am and the whole weekend thus still ahead. The E Hawk with brushless 480 and 2.4g connection has proved a sweetie - kinda like the old Easy Bird with a motor.....
Sheer soaring pleasure afore many people are stirring for the day.... Saturday mornings definitely a good habit to cultivate again.

The trick in this game is to always be one step ahead and the Mini Bee with stock motor the ideal foil to get the next step in to sloping. A bit porky with the huge 2000 lipo, so marginal on the flat but ideal for slope days at Derek's Dale etc. Mark also completing a foamie Expo for some evening Park flying.
