I'm not quite sure you will benefit from painting the props like you did with the body. When you're flying it, you are mostly looking at the edge of the blade. It certainly will look cool while it's on the ground or on display, but in flight it will be hardly noticeable.

Hurray, I didn't miss the FedEx delivery after all. The truck just rolled up. I sprinted down the stairs so he didn't get away. He had just placed the box on my door step. Couldn't wait to get it inside and open it. I expected it to be a larger unit than it is. I am pleased with how compact it...

That was fun!!

I've been flying the Inspire since February.

I agree that it would be nice to have a view available within the app which is customizable where a subset of characteristics could be designated for easy access. A sort of "favorites" tab. That would allow each pilot to quickly access the characteristics that are important or necessary to them...

Yes I am. Down in south San Jose. I usually flew and practice on top of Communications Hill. I live there so it's convenient.

Got a light rain down in the bay area (San Jose). Peculiar weather. But we'll take any moisture we can get. Pretty shot you got. Wish I was up flying in your area.

I have 113 and still junior...think it'll be a while yet.

Interesting that your total mileage is "only" 9.9 million feet though! Peculiar...

I really appreciate those times where I learned a heart pumping lesson without a huge financial penalty. I've been there. Think yours was physically harder though. I saw that it was suggested that switching to ATTI when you regained control would have gotten you a bit more speed on the return...

Really fantastic. Now I'll have that in the back of my head next time I'm in similar country! Thanks.
