    Friday Night: Today has been the coldest day we have ever had since we came to Spain, we didn't get above 3C despit it being clear and sunny all day......

    The Bernia this morning......



    The motor
    I have been waiting for finally arrived today after a month and I have been able to complete the Hughes 500E electric helicopter Chrissie bought me for Christmas. When I finished it I took it down to the Plaza and flew it...
    The mechanics are the T RexV2, so I had already test flown and set that part up with the other motor, the body is fibreglass and you have to fit the mechanics inside it.... Which is easier said than done I may add...... but we got there in the end....



    It certainly "grows"
    in size somewhat compared to a T Rex when it's fitted together and the flight characteristics with all the extra bulk make it very stable.....  I've been looking forward to this having one.....
