SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:47 |  | Views : 1029 | The third flight I tried to do more runway passes but the wind was up to about 2-3 MPH and was shifting directions. I dipped a wingtip into the ground and broke the motor mount. A little CA got me in the air again but the wind got the better of me again. |
SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:43 |  | Views : 992 | The previous flight lasted about 4.5 minutes so the second flight I tried to do less full throttle and towards the end of the flight reduced power. I managed to get 6 minutes of air time. One bounce on the runway then a plop into the grass. |
SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:41 |  | Views : 1022 | After several passes, few of which were anywhere near the runway, the ESC cut out on low voltage while attempting to pull out at full throttle. I reset the ESC and lined up the best I could, 4-5 large bounces later I managed to get stopped on the runway. |
SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:36 |  | Views : 1042 | I did a little flying to and fro and managed to snap a few pictures of the Tyro. Then I settled into the business of attempting to line up with the runway and make passes down its length about 3'-6' in the air, I need a lot more practice. |
SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 01-May-08 15:34 |  | Views : 993 | My second morning out at the field with the Tyro. Winds were 0-1 MPH to start with and it was just warm enough to have clouds and dew but still rather chilly. |
