Lidl Hunter Takes to the Skies - Battling Strong Winds - And confession of a rather silly mistake!

[Bonzodog]

It was a bit breezy for a lightweight, but my conversion of a cheap Lidl foamie glider to an RC 'Hunter' finally got a maiden. 😄 It survived, though I came close to losing it at one point when I couldn't stop it climbing and the strong wind was taking it further and further away. 😳 Plus I made a really dumb mistake after breaking the prop 1st throw. First time I'd made that silly mistake in 10+ years of RC plane messing about. 😂
It'll fly even better next time after a few improvents!

well done!

Thanks! Hopefully it'll go even better next time with some thrust changes, more expo, smaller throws and less wind.
