#rc #airplane #destruction
Well, you scared me. Having flown a wing wing z84 for a few weeks I bought the alpha strike. Yesterday morning it arrived....and then I watched this video. Built it yesterday afternoon and took it to the field expecting to crash on first flight. Only used 3s and god it is fast. Flew twice and it survived. I have aged a decade. Thanks for the tips. Andy in UK.
Mad respect to pilots who LOS a fast rc plane. Very nice flying.
Okay, i am glad your crash was a careless error not doing a preflight servo check...i have had planes with even worse damage and more pieces than that..some i glued back together and they looked great with some light body work and paint...and flew exactly the same...my foamy repair skills are pretty much top notch..after 10 years and over 100 repairs you really figure out the best methods...whats great about your crash is the wings were not damaged...easy to fix imo...
yeah, fixing foam is one of the best parts of foamies, but people still bash them as though it's a negative quality. I love the fact you can fix them for next to nothing, in many cases...sometimes, of course, we need parts, but it's still a lot easier than doing a repair on a balsa wood plane
@@BrianPhillipsRC actually at bg they sell fuse with nose for about $20 ...i will will practice with my beat up planes before i maiden...i think its a great model,reminds me of my 50 edf skyangle screamer...i crashed that in a chainlink fence (6 peices)and managed to fix it...still flys great..Happy flying!
Thanks for sharing. In this hobby things happen. Equipment failure, pilot error, etc. Glad it didn't turn out worse. Still a cool plane.
Pilot error...not equipment failure. I never let it initiate after I adjusted the breaking... this was a very unfortunate pilot error ;(
@@BrianPhillipsRCno worries. based on your flying skills this is a very rare occasion. Absolutely love your channel and your format. The most useful for me of any though I have older radios so the setup portion, while interesting and well done, isn't something I can use.. for now.😄
That thing is CRAZY fast! I could never fly that with my slow reaction times lol Dude, I’m sorry it crashed but the look on your face when Camera Crew panned back to you had me LMAO. Again sorry I laughed, but I’m glad you showed us all everything that can happen and didn’t edit it out, even the bad stuff. This is why you are my fav
This was a lesson we could all learn from...short lived, but great plane, actually!
HI BRIAN SIR THANKS FOR POSTING. THESE ZOOD PLANES ARE MAD LOOKING. VERY NOISY TYPICAL PUSHER PROP ALL LOUD .🇬🇧🇺🇸✌️. THANKYOU FOR FILMING CAMERA CREW 💐.
Thanks, and yeah they are!!!
Analog VTX at 1.3ghz, 4S 000mah Li-ion, TBS CRSF or ELRS, a nice cam, 7.4 folding prop, 50a esc, T-Motor F80 with a nice ground station and automatic antenna tracker and go fly some nice long range. Short range, swap out to DJI FPV air unit or TBS Unify 5.8ghz HV, 4S 3200mah lipo, F80 motor, 50a esc and 7x4 folding prop, and then slap either the FPV COMBAT or ZTAG unit in it and get a friend to do the same. That's how to enjoy this wing. 😃 That's just my opinion of course. Enjoy it the way you see fit. 😃
Sounds like quite the payload ;)
OK, so i got the ZOHD Alpha Strike, yours lasted two more flights than mine. Maiden flight it went into an uncontrollable up and down and flew out of site. I painted the top safety orange and that's the only way i could see it as far as i did. Who knows where it ended up. I have been flying RC planes and heli's for over 35 years and never had this happen. No more of these for me. I have an Extreme Flight Outlaw from 10 years ago. It is the ultimate speed rush! No stabilization and flies like on rails.
I bet you might have been a TOUCH tail heavy, which is SUPER easy to so... Sorry about your loss!
P.S. I deleted a duplicate of your comment...not sure what happened, but didn't want you to think I was upset or something strange.
Ahahhaha!!
ZOHD Rule Their part of the RC World.
I lost My ASW-28 last Sunday, rescue party never found it after multiple searches.
Glad Your the RC Ace BP. Making Us Kooks out in the world understand in could happen to You too.
Beauty BPRC, still a 33rd degree RC Dude to Me.
Thanks Jono!!!
awesome job flying and your wife did a really good job filming that beast. Thanks for showing the crash
She was sick too. This was a tough video to put together for her and I...we were both feeling bad, but she was worse.
She's good!
All pushers are much loader. OUCH!!! Yep, we all crash at times. Things just go wrong! We all don't get it on video tho. Good job Camera crew.
I've found that too - they do seem to be more loud... As for crashing, I didn't even get to do it myself ;) LOL
I love the camera crews answer when you asked her how she likes filming it.
Ask her later too fast too noisy I wouldn't want to get hit with it
LOL ;)
such a nice blue sky you have, I love the life you lead man!, nice plane and TX
Thanks Andres! You get to see the highlights ;)
It's cool how that plane comes with a built in siren when in flight!
LOL
I might build one of these in the future, I'm more interested in a twin motor plane build at this point. Still awesome vid!
It's fun if you can get it to live a little longer than I did mine - LOL ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC yeah I'll probably avoid it then lol 😆
Looks like the space shuttle from ground. very cool
I thought so too!
Well that went in an unfamiliar direction than normal. Fun to watch fly, crazy fast for the liking of my old slow reactions. I did enjoy the looks of the braking effects. I personally would want it on 3S. Unbelievable selling price for the quality involved. Totally adorable.
Sorry to see the end result of the maiden flight. But it does happen. Another awesome video. Thank you both. Have a great weekend.
God bless.
Yep, and thanks Jeffrey.
This one looks cool, I like the spacious room for the battery and receiver bays...
HUGE, and TWO, so you can go in front of the CG and behind the CG to get everything loaded up nicely.
DITTO'S,Your an wifes time for Lonnnnng videos. Well worth a RC'ers time to watch an learn.. even liked the snow,.
Im 63 12 years electric planes.
Fly Havok,Radjet, Fast. No assists.
Because of your video on ZOHD ALPHA STRIKE, I purchased.
For me an without assist had 4 flights b4 PILOT ERROR crash an burn. . .
Wow what a Rush of Adrenallin, .
I recommend Some kind of flight assist for most however.. i banked to steep in a turn at low throttle to low at
"0 mistake high" lol. My Error totally as yours was passing on control check,. Hey I Relate, . Shes a Great wing Airframe, . An quite a Motor Esc, to say the least.
. Ill buy a few more of these..
Will put some type of stabilizer nextime.
I was Crying about that Crash an burn. Great Aircraft for The
" Set your Hair on Fire Pilots".
Shell rule your Clubs Airfield.
Tks again Take the Camera crew out to Eat. You so Lucky!
Glad you're here with us, and stabilizers are a huge part of making this hobby fun for me...I don't lean on the auto leveling much at all anymore, but stabilizers make the planes a lot easier to "tame". Some people don't like the "feel" of a stabilizer, but I personally like the feel of plane that's in one piece - LOL ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC , 10-4, Im looking into GyroStablizer's nx3, possibly Zohd , Have admiral, lemon with stablizers already.
Yes the Fast Havok, an most wings I admit benefit from Stablizers,.
. Ill have one in My ZOHD A.Strike, Great plane, Mostly,lol
So fast! The noise is kinda cool.
It was neat to hear the echo!
Crazy insanely fast bird.
Agreed!
Calmest crash I have ever seen, great job!
LOL ;)
You're a good pilot and fun to watch, he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
Thanks Mark!
Oh dude that thing is crazy fast 😁
It's supposed to be like 115mph or some such thing.
I think I've watched 5 videos on this thing, and every one of them ended in some kind of wreck. You flew it longer than anyone else. Most people launch it horizontally and torque roll it right into the ground, some of the flights are literally 10 seconds.
WOW - I feel a lot better about my tragically short experience now - LOL ;)
Yep, so many failed maidens lol. It needs speed to fly at its best, gets small so fast and is also difficult to tell orientation... which really makes it best suited for fpv.
It definitely gets small super quick and the worst plane ever fir orientation. I'm going to put an fpv kit on mine when I get round to it.
Brian is a very good pilot...many experienced guys have zero experience with fast prop jet deltas...those are the guys who crashed...Brians crash was just an electronic issue of some kind,not pilot flying error or poor plane design..these are not for everyone,but they certainly are a lot of fun for many of us..😊
Yeah l agree with the above. A lot of people have noexperience on a model like this. If you launch it level half throttle is enough for it to head out with no torque roll if you give it full it will roll so don’t give it full😮 lm used to funjets radjet , other small fast stuff LOS only that’s where you learn to handle stuff like this. I like it a lot bit of colour under the wings no problem seeing it so long as you don’t take your eyes off it😮
Wow Brian I like it better then the Zohd 570mm this is very fast love the engine nice.
I think this one is pretty cool too, but lot bigger too!
That looks like one of the fastest planes oh your channel. It was crazy fast at first when you first launched it. Camera Crew had no problem keeping up with it. Really i don't know how she does it. Especially this plane. Can you do a speed run with that? They don't have telemetry for how fast your going yet. If they don't they should get on that right away. That' would be good to know. If i did FPV with that i would pass out.
I can assure you that I can't make a speed run with this one anymore - LOL ;) (I assume you made this comment BEFORE the end - LOL - so I'll also assume you'll get the joke)
Very cool video! planes is a ripper.
For sure!
Brian, you want to try something really cool, purchase the F- 22 Raptor Jet from Twisted Hobbys, this thing is a blast to fly, you have to build it but it goes together really quick. Make sure you purchase the power combo offered by them including the receiver, it makes a big difference. Quite a few videos have been posted about this aircraft
I did a profile plane like that a long time ago, and it was a blast!
Camera crew does a great job!
She sure does!!! This plane and some others are just IMPOSSIBLE to film, but she does it!!!
That's one fast model!
for sure!
Lol..sorry hate to see it go down. Kudos for showing it. 👏 I don't understand how the surfaces got wonky
It was at least fun to watch self destruct!!!
Sorry about ur crazy crash , was wondering how your flight was gonna go- I got the zohd drift witch is a different plane but same company I struggled with getting mine to fly correctly and after serval crashes and bad ones too I finally got my stabilizer working right after destroying my fpv cam 😵 but Jez this one made me work for it ! I love the look of this one but I think I'm gonna pass - my drift is now flying pretty good just waiting for good weather to test out the new run cam I put in keep up the good work look forward to your videos
I think it's strange that these FPV platforms come is these challenging to fly shapes, and I think speed is not maybe so necessary for FPV in my opinion....BUT it is very cool to watch!
Wow, that's nuts. Hey 105K subs, good for you guys.
Thanks GBro!
I’m seeing they are making this model now with an Edf!!!
really?
Love the camera crew! Thanks for the detailed explanations and for the great camera crew! :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Mate Soos!
What a lesson.
yep
Wow that's sick Brian! On another note, I seen a pretty cool reasonably priced plane that would be cool plane for you to do a review of.. it's the Durafly Tundra v2 (pnf). Hobby King has it for $179, it seems like a awesome plane packed with cool features like reversing, big squshy tires, floats, towing, fpv attachment, etc for under $200 and haven't really seen many youtubers review it yet. Just a thought in case looking for a new plane to test and review. 🙃
Thanks Scott for the tip.
I think this is worth a revisit. It looks to be up there with the F27 maybe even faster. AR637T and maybe a different esc. I was scared just watching the flybys! Great work again!
Yes, AR631 would be just fine. I should have just used one but here we are. I don't blame the equipment for this one...I never actually watched for the aileron twitch - big mistake!
The F27 would be a great comparison, it's probably about as fast but with sooo much more room inside for whatever you want to put in it. Wonder how it would fare with a slower more cruiser with FPV setup for longer flight times.
Well at least I'm not the only one to crash this month hehe It happens to the best of us not saying I'm the best at all 😭 Even though it was flying pretty dang good I think it's a little beyond my skills I don't think it had anything to do with Brian's skills at all Like he said he just forgot to check the control surfaces I've seen people that have been flying 30-40yrs and this exact thing happen Nice flying till it wasn't Brian 😁 Great job as always Camera Crew 🔥👍✌️
It was pretty crazy ending, but good plane still. I would have liked to tweak it in a bit more, but all else considered, it was a good flying, albeit CRAZY fast plane.
AHHHHH I feel so sorry for you crash, but you can tell you too happy going full throttle, this is the only Zhod I do not have yet, no time, to space in home for more, but wow that was intense.
No need to feel sorry for the crash. I screwed up, and everyone can learn from my mistake. It was a fun experience!
Hi Brian. Meghan
That kite is insane if I flew that on my field I would stampede about 2000 wild red n fallow deer. Waaaaay to noisy..n sketchy... I'll think ill stick with my zohd drift.. On a 3s...so quiet.. And brilliant flight times
Stay well you 2
Brian
Thanks Brian!
Wow great job Brian and even better job Camera crew keeping with it for 90% of the time. I just can not imagine FPV! Drone FPV can get you woowsy but that is insane! Great channel !
I agree - this plane was INSANE to keep in frame, and Megan did a great job!
Waiting to maiden mine. Really like the way you launch it. I usually use a side toss on similar planes, where you hold the plane by the wingtip with the plane on it's side. The torque levels it out, rather then starting level and then going on it's side. AND gets the prop away from your hand. Side note-please don't take a damaged battery into your home, even for a moment! I was waiting for that thing to blow... Thanks for the great videos. What camera are you using? The quality and focus holding are awesome.
That battery was taken out and shot after we were done taking footage. I know exactly what I was risking and have experience with these packs. I have intentionally burned them, shot them, pierced them, tested the way they puff before
blowing up...I'm well versed in the way they fail (to the point of fast burning fire, and or smoke bomb).
As for this plane, wish I got some more time with it, but such is life with crappy rx'es ;(
Megan was using my Samsung Galaxy S9 - she is a genius with the camera! So lucky she helps me!!!
This video title is misleading.. we got at least three crashes here! Cheers Brian 🍻
LOL
OK.... Im not buying that plane, if Brian could not even land it... I mean, we saw the struggle... and its BrianPhillips!
Nop, I'll pass on this one.
LOL - I could have landed it, but it's not gonna be for everyone ;) The times I had unscheduled landings, the plane just had a higher than expected sink rate ;)
Thing is a rocket!!
Damn your los flying is epic 👍
I agree - rocket it is!
thanks ;)
I like this type of delta..seems nice design and quality...which seems more fun to fly this or fms flash? Thanks for sharing
My Flash is still alive - LOL ;)
bprc.me/FMS_Flash
Always AWESOME thanks Brian for a Great Review and a Great Crash , you are the Best !
Thanks Johnny!
Opppsssy, Awww Brian You Can Fix That, Plus Put That Battery In The Next DYNAM Plane or The Worst Flyin One You Already Have? Soo Then We Can Possibly See A Real Smoke Trail, Then Flames To A Mid Air Explosion & What A More Suiting Product To Use!? 🤣
Okay, that was a GREAT idea! Dang it!!!! I missed the boat, big time!
Great video Brian. I'm probably going to get this one Next. Question. Is that Black Nose Cone made from the same type of material as the rest of the wing. I have a modified, scratch build, landing skid idea that I'm going to install. I have to land on cement or dirt roads.
Could be even faster if you taped over the intake vents and mounted the esc on top of the fuse instead... but after watching that, I really don't think it needs to be any faster, looks a real handful!
An even lighter build with a quad motor, esc with the battery in the rear bay would be interesting to try... I might do just that with mine.
CG would be way tail heavy with lipo in the back, but you can swap gear all over the place with this thing.
@@BrianPhillipsRC Yeah, I was thinking that after I posted the reply. Maybe have to hollow out the centre foam section for the lipo if I went with a lighter motor, I think that might be the way forward.
Great flying btw and it looked sooo much better with the CG more rearward... and although binned that was still quite something to see.. and a great video.
Thanks again. :)
So at maiden up only needed up elevator trim? Many guys add like 3mm plus up elevon one guy had his set at 7 mm...i think this has a lot to do with adding bigger battery and camera weight etc..i should be getting my pnp pretty soon...Great flying!
Personally ..It looks good, but I feel it needs more wing area .. add +6" on both sides.. that would improve its slow speed and landings and also reduce the initial torque roll on take off.. that body shape is great, with plenty of room for your gear.. perhaps too fast for FPV as it is..
True, but I just killed it before I got used to it ;) She'll fly great, but I was still in "crazy" maiden mode...I wanted to share a better landing that I KNEW it had in it. Sorry I kinda screwed the pooch on that one ;(
Well, you no longer have to worry about space to store that one in the basement, just a small bag of reusable parts now because I KNOW you never throw anything away. 😂
LOL - I said the same exact thing to Megan off camera - LOL
See, this is the only place on RUclips where you get to see the entire lifecycle of a plane in ONE video - LOL ;)
It doesn't make noise because it's inefficient. Every pusher prop ever naturally makes more noise. Don't know why though
ok
Good video team, to much plane for a newbie like myself.
It was pretty nuts.
These jets should not be flown with stabilizers. Just use 50/60 percent throw on ailerons and 40 percent expo. Use 80-100 percent throw on elevator and 40 percent expo. You don't need the stabilizer. I've flown way more sensitive jets like the hobbyking parkjet and they do fine without any gyro/stabilizers.
This is a highly subjective matter. You're certainly entitled to your opinion. I fly with stabilizers, and love it that way.
I wonder if you could use a larger prop for braking
Maybe?
Wow I'm getting one of them Brian i love the echo that was coming back. I've just got the right field to fly it 😎👌
That battery was fine no sells was broken pop it in the vice get it back to shape 😁🤣🤣🤣
I forget if the prop was broken
Nice review ! it seems you can keep safe on the roll to keep a correct flight and be able to do looping with elevator , how it is possible please with this stabilisator .
I'm not 100% sure I understand your question.
@@BrianPhillipsRC as you have the Gyro on how can you do loops ? it is not keep you flat ?
Brings up an interesting question ... What do you do with batteries that are destroyed like that?
I took it to a spot in the yard where It wouldn't cause a fire, and I shoot them. I used to use a nail to drive through them when we were in town, but this is more exciting ;)
Also, I always take off the smart charger and leads for the value of that CHIP. I kinda want to "make" a huge smart battery ;) BUT don't tell HH - they wouldn't care for that at all ;) LOL
Hi Brian great video as usual. So did you ever figure out the gyro settings an what they do? I just ordered the same setup and would like to know before starting when it gets here. I have flown with the eagle tree 2d 3d stablizer before and it has 3d mode, off, and self level. 3d mode works great on delta wings for launch just angel the plane in the direction you want it to go and flip the switch and it will hold that attitude till you move the stick. Just want to know if the NX3 works the same. Thanks
Yeaaaaahhhhhh....I DID kinda figure out that they work, but you have to let them INITIATE, and this is better while on the ground ;)
That thing was hauling on full throttle
oh yeah!
Did you ever get another zohd? Iv got 2 after the first 1 crashed but had to get another 1, awesome plane and you were flying it great before the end.....
I think we did TWO of them...but this might have been the SECOND???
Thank you for the wonderful video. Where is the CG located?
I'm sorry, but don't recall. We would have covered this in the video, but might have to skip around a bit.
I want to know the speed of this, it seriously whips.
I think about 115 mph or so.
is the elevon/ elevator should straight to the lines or we should trim / adjust 2 degrees up/ Lift?
I think you should do a bit UP...maybe 2-3 degrees. If it's too much, you can always trim it down.
OK! When is the repair video coming? a LITTLE tube of Chia Glue ahhh better make that box of glue and you'll have it back in the air or ground in no time, and use the same batt, it is a smart one so it will remember what to do! Great look on your face through that!
Well, at least you lived to crash another day!
Sorry for the bad day. 😒
It wasn't a bad day. Sometimes this happens ;) It was fun to put this one together, and we still had a chance to share a good plane, so it was a win win, crash - LOL ;)
Are you familiar with lemon rx/gyro combos...i wonder if it would make this plane easier to maiden and fly...i have one set up in another plane where i can switch on and off from gear switch and also turn dial on my dx8 to adjust gains higher or lower...thanks
control surface.....did this yesterday with my Nano Talon Evo and it ended up looking like your crash wreck
I'm so damn jealous of the life you're living... Nice house, nice area you can fly in without others ruining it for you, wife who appreciates your hobby instead of wanting all your time for herself...oh and cool plane as well!
What’s good Brian!? I’m a new subscriber. Juss got into flying and your channel is super dope bruh.
💯!….. It would be nice to be able to fly wit someone else who know what they’re doing.
3 weeks in five planes later lol too much fun
Love the vids bruh! And shout out to the camera crew! Wifey holdin it down for sure!
Welcome Lamar! Glad you're here with us, and so glad you're getting into this with us! Hope you're getting on the sticks yourself!!!
That is one crazy finicky loud mosquito
LOL - For sure!
Based on all the video’s that you’ve made so far, I’m guessing that the crash was due to something electronic. Maby that stabilizer. Not your flying skills. I also noticed that you had your receiver antennas sitting right on that carbon fiber rod. Great video though. I have one of these on the way right now in the mail. Camera crew got a good workout with that little screamer.
yeah, in hindsight, I think the stabilizer wasn't initialized properly - BUT it was FUN TO WATCH!!! ;)
Hey Brian i looked in the manual but couldn’t find how to program the esc like you did. Where did you find it? Thank You.
I ordered a couple of those NX3 gyros and in my opinion they are junk. The Zohd Kopilot is a much better solution 👌 and it has gps / return to home
I'd consider trying them. This was an unfortunate oversight on my part, and partly because I'm so spoiled with Spektrum gear of late...
I like “camera crew” aka wife with camera.
Thanks ;)
So you never flew this type of wing without a gyro? I have crashed my fast prop jet a few times for sure,but never used a gyro...this plane is fast for a pnp setup big time..😊
One would have to assume poor elevator authority with the propeller behind the control surface.
I thought the control authority was more a function of being a bit too nose heavy as the CG marks suggested. I think a bit more tail heavy did help quite a bit.
@@BrianPhillipsRC I think the chord of the control surface as a percentage of the total chord is important too. I made a scratch-build plane with similar ratios to this and it was extremely uncontrollable at slow speed no matter where the CG was. It doesn't matter for roll so much but for pitch, a wing with a deep chord and small surface mostly wants to maintain the current pitch. A low aspect ratio seems to make this even more so. At high speed the angle of attack is lower and air is following the upper surface of the wing better, so upward deflections of the elevons have more effect. Just my armchair aerodynamicist opinion :)
Moving on! Lol
LOL ;)
Cool
sure is, thanks!
if you want this thing to last a long time, use Futaba
I have Futaba and Spektrum gear that's years and years old.
So, what do you do to dispose of a Lipo pack like that?
I take it out back and shoot it. Usually I just make sure to hit it a few times with .22 rounds, but if I'm feeling frisky, I'll get out something a bit larger, and REALLY try to destroy it.
@@BrianPhillipsRC that’s intense.
Sad that happened. Try to fly it or any plane without any stabilisation units. It gives you a false sense of flying experience. Good video camera guy you have there.
Yeah, it was a bummer, but what can you do? Sometime we make stupid mistakes, and sometimes the equipment makes them for us ;) LOL
Did you try to fix it or going to get another one, what do you do for batteries like this
Damaged battery disposal, great question.
no to fixing it...it was pretty blown up....as for the battery - I shoot them with .22 and then the chemistry is more stable for disposal. I don't talk about it due to YT being very lame about this sort of subject matter...also I don't want to tell people how to dispose of lipos, since rules are different, and I don't want to get sued.
FPV?? Does it come with a hands free barf bag with ear straps?
LOL!!!! Should if I'm flying!!!
MY Neptune 2 (prop driven) wing is loudER than that wfo! 😳 I use 4s/1500mah stubby packs on it & my fms easy trainer. (Same motor/prop design/setup.) I think their props r dessimating the sound barrier! LoL!
yep!
Way too fast for me, in a few seconds of full throttle it’s gone and orientation is lost with my old eyes. Your reactions and skills are awesome though. The plane ended in a salad sadly, the ZOHD Delta Strike 50mm EDF seems like a nice replacement
Yeah, this plane was insane, but at least it went out in a blast of glory - LOL ;)
@@BrianPhillipsRC 😂😂
Need help with draco how do I get ahold of you with out giving my info out ?
Make a comment here.
brian...you should try zeta ultra z or radjet ultra..it is awesome jet...
I'll look into them.
Brian do you sell any of the plane on your video
I share links, but I don't often sell the planes. Sometimes, I'll make a deal with someone locally, as we need to make room from time to time (like now - LOL)
@@BrianPhillipsRC ok thanks
I had a car that sounded like that once......it blew up.
LOL!!!
VERY FAST PLANE
very
Exactly where the overpriced and underperforming Spektrum and Eflite batteries belong, in the garbage! 😂
Personally I love the way the previous ZOHD models looked and performed, but this one is a hard pass for me.
Well, the battery was still working - LOL ;)
How fast is that?
115mph or more. It's CRAZY fast ;)
Hopefully this helps ZOHD Heads that read You,,,
Brian, This is My "Moby Dick",. Hopefully I Fair better than Ahab.
Im 64 yo always 13 year Electric Flyer. Feel like a Noob,, with the Alpha Strike..
I "m going to this time "#2,,,. Lost #1 in Corn Field at my AMA Club last month. 100mph Lawn Dart,
