More fun and games with the Atom RC Swordish 😫 I have still never managed a good landing approach with this thing. It needs a fast approach. Stalls very readily in my humble opinion? This 'landing' was more of a stall crash than a proper landing too. Cheap 3 blade props didn't help either. New higher kv motors are coming, plus smaller two blade props and prop savers. Hopefully I will eventually get there with this?

I thought it looked good. landings would prolly be prettier on grass
Maybe a mower and a roller to make a smoooooooooth landing area.... Looks fun!
Grass would be a luxury! It's an old airfield and very rough, but made worse in the area I dropped it into because the Heritage Trust ahave decided in their wisdom that the two strips should be moved after 80+ years so it's being cut back and some areas are just a tangle of short broken roots etc. now. It's take years to recover.
I've got new motors coming which will take APC 2 blades and I'm sure will be an improvement.
