Night Watch

Whilst on weekend leave, I have given due thought to our patrols looking for the Somerset Scrumpy Smugglers. No doubt they are well aware of our current, predictable, modus operandi, therefore, as from today, our patrols will be more erratic and take place at any time day or night. In this way, hope to catch them red handed. Nerys SubLt.

Thanks Doug. That is very useful information on the charging of LiPo`s. I usually restrict to 2A. I will reduce in future.👍 I recently bought a plane to try again. I fly well with flight sim X but as soon as I get behind an RC, I panic and CRUNCH. I am trying to find a really cheap plane to fly that will bounce so that I can man up and stop the immediate panic on take off.😁
