All day I wanted to go fly my SpiTTT but couldn’t because I was at work.
At least I had the fun to watch my daughter fly her brother’s drone for her very first time...

Took the short time I had and went to maiden the painted SpiTTT I built. Check it out!

Went when the weather looked like this:

And now the week looks like this:

Started project 60% scale down again. Tried to get the mini mini TT to fly but it didn’t fly well at all. I am still working on it and will eventually get it to fly proper, but all of that will have to wait until I get my servos delivered. Right now I have only two 9g servos that can be used and I don’t think that they will work well here.

Meantime I am watching and waiting out for a nice day to go fly the SpiTTT. One that I will also have enough time to have fun.

I really hope that the Weather starts going your way! 👍👍

Not going to Threadjack, but mine is over half done! Going at a S L O W pace though..... (Sorry guys, sick Wife comes FIRST!)
I've also been redesigning a TT. Don't Worry!! There's NO chance of it being 10% as Cool as the SpiTTT!! :ROFLMAO::p:p
I've changed up quite a bit..... Mine is more of a Kitbash - NO Science, no Engineering! Just an Old Fart Air Force Dude, calling on his Experience, an the many conversations with People MUCH smarter than I.

I'm really hoping to get to take pictures soon. Some Guys here are getting a bit impatient!

Looking forward to seeing YOUR Creation take to the Air again!! ;)

I tried. I really tried to take advantage of the moment of quite that you have before a storm hits again. I got to the field setup the plane wings and canopy connected just about to connect the battery and do a pre-flight check. And then it hit me! I don’t have the battery lipo bag with me... I don’t have any battery at all. *$#%! Maybe it’s not meant to be today. Let’s go fix some new electronics and make a video about how to connect the wings internally.

It’s good to know that I am not alone :)

Not alone at all. I've showed up at the field without batteries, and another time arrived without a transmitter. And it's a 45 minute drive to the field for me :cry:

Good thing is the hobby shop is only 15 minutes from the field, so those turned into shopping days instead! (y)

I created the video on how to setup the wings and canopy on the SpiTTT. You can find the video in the "SpiTTT (The TIny Trainer with a Spitfire Warbird Twist)" thread.

LOL I guess the hobby shop was pleased with you forgetting stuff at home. :)

Will it fly?! We just might find out tomorrow... Any how tomorrow I am taking the SpiTTT and two friends and the GoPro to the field to go flying. One friend is also bringing his drone along so I am hoping for some good air footage too :).

That's great, friend!!! The Video coverage should be sweet!!
Tomorrow and Tuesday are very Sacred to us, but I'm sure I can sneak in a little time to see the In-Flight coverage... ;)
