Kona, picture my hand!  It's saying you're #1!  :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:

LOL. 

No, it was a pretty scarey deal.  The left elevator barely had enough travel to overcome the right's malfunction.  It also required a little aileron correction.  :smile20:  Lucky I tell ya.  Lucky.

played around with fraps this morning....recorded my first video, not fancy flying, but I finally figured out how to make a vid.... :smile28:

30 seconds, no sound, and small res to keep the file size down, but here the first one.

Ya, that was a cool video. Did the website "Fine tune" the video by keeping the object centered and all the jittery movements taken out?

Seeing all the fun Cliff is having with his Traxxas, I have a couple of bids on two on Ebay. I bought two RC 4x4's from Fry's for $50 for the kids at Christmas.... One's in the trash and the other has a front wheel hanging loose. Going to get some real R/C cars now.

James, those RC's will be fun for use at Broken Bow in the mornings or late at night while we're all sitting around the "Built Ford Tough" campfire in the evenings. I picked up an awesome 4 amp charger the other day for $10.....stole it.
