Man we all have bad days but that sounds a little extreme......whats messing up for you bro.....Im sure with all the talent here you could get some answers if you have specific problems.
Does everyone go through this?
The past few trips to the feild have cost me over a grand, I cant seem to get my planes built straight anymore, every last peice of equipment i have is going bad, all my tanks bubble, and none of my engines run right. :evil: :x is this a normal thing or something?

I have those building problems too :lol:
You know its bad when your thinking about going back to all heli because it was cheaper and less trouble.
Wow duuude.. that is bad.... share some specifics and maybe we can help you out.
If i got into details it would take all day.PaulSwany said:Wow duuude.. that is bad.... share some specifics and maybe we can help you out.
think not a single good flight in 4 months even though ive been told im one of the best in my area, every single servo has a bad pot, play, no centering, or stripped gears. I did the impossible, DESTROYED MY PBF, now i dont even have that, not even the radio gear and engine! I have been doing the same thing for over 8 years with no trouble then allovasudden everything has gone to hell. My kangaroo was recently reduced to a ball of plastic but atleast the jetcat survived. Its really getting old and i dont know how much longer its gonna be until i just give it all up.
I have had trouble like this before especially with my poor burrito. best thing to do is just keep at it. I started haveing a buddy check over all my new stuff before the maiden becuase i tend to get in a hurry and forget about stupid stuff. Dont give up to much fun for that.

Duuuuude... sounds like you might need some Prozac rather than help with your bird...... I've hit slumps when it seams like everything is ugly. I've referred to that behavior as "Looking at the world thru shit colored glasses"......surfnaked said:If i got into details it would take all day.PaulSwany said:Wow duuude.. that is bad.... share some specifics and maybe we can help you out.

Cheer up!! If everything sux... go to a park and eat lunch with a friend while the sun is shining and the birds are singing.... Smell the roses... Life is too short to be bummed out about a damned toy airplane....
When things look up, go get yourself something easy to fly with new equipment.... If you find yourself unable to keep flying, go hang out at the field, enjoy the camaraderie and watch your buddies fly.... Remember... this is supposed to be fun...

Take two Prozacs and pull the "W" lever and your'll feel much better.
I guess hitec screwed up on all the servos in my 1/3 scale extra, but then again maybe they work because they are plugged into a futaba RX :shock:Constrictor said:A hitec servo that centers well and has gears intact and has a good pot should be considered a screw up on hitec's part. I had every single hitec ive owned screw up i will never buy another hitec. There are indeed certain things that will guarantee us airplane failure and hitecs..............................................
Youd need to give me 2 prozac's to pull that lever3d-aholic said:Take two Prozacs and pull the "W" lever and your'll feel much better.
