I did some taxiing and than the madman aka sazdo - would be instructor, took over the radio and showed great disrespect for my baby. Although the center of gravity wasn't done, with dual rates on, after agreeing that we won't fly her today, he couldn't resist and in a moment of weakness and foolishness applied full throttle. The Klemm did a nosedive and got away with some scratches on the engine- and wheel covers and ruined the propeller. That made me reconfirm my intention to maidenfly the Klemm35 by myself. Will do after we have the Cessnas in a couple of weeks.
We went today to run in the engine of the Klemm 35. We planned to empty a couple of fueltanks for that matter. There she stands gracious and meaningful.
Klemm 35 Spez. ready to go. Registration Z3- EXE. Only the radio needs some programming. This is my first real RC model airplane. I have until now flown only the Chinese Toys and have also some FMS and G2 Simulator time. I hope everything goes right on the maiden flight, cause I do not really know what to expect. Z3
We went a couple of times to the nearest flying field Skopje- Brazda (Stenkovec) and there we came in contact with the serious fuel burning model flyers. We were hooked...
This is Vlade with an AN 2 behind him and a China Toy Airplane in his hand ready for handstart.
Everything started with this chinese toyshop RC plane that I got for my 30 birthday from my friends. Then after two fligths I bought another one, then they (Vlade, Kumba) bought some. Finally we had about 7 china toyshop planes with 2,5 of them being functional now.Then we decided we want sometrhing more serious...
