Sportcopter Mustering Model low flying

Hi Ian, anytime I say I know or point out that I have quite a bit of experience in this sort of testing, Russ or Graeme seem to delight in having a shot at me. Sad

So............your down aye, good ****...........i"ve only got sympathy for your victims ( them innocent folks my friend, that felt your boot going into them )

[birdy]

Hey Russy old son, would you like me to lay down so you can really stick the boots in and kick me when I am downI dont often [ probably never actualy] agree with Russ, but i do this time.Dont think for a moment PB, that because of your unfortunate incident, that the past will just vanish and everyone will hold back coz your not as well as you was. I wouldnt wish your life on anyone, but **** happens, and the past never changes.We are still talkn bout the public ere, and the public still need to know the story.All of it.After reviewing the video it was noticed that the machine flew nose low during straight and level at a high speed/power setting. I bet if the same low level pass was conducted again at only cruise power & speed the machine would probably fly with a level keel angle.I agree 100 poocent Sam.

Ian.......and others, opologies for getting off track here on your thread, but something just had to be said.I"m done on this matter...............

[tonydenton]

ok , seeing we have done all our recent tests, and having done a hang test between 9 and 12 degrees what does that represent??????????? to actual flying position /angle in relation to straight and level with cruise speed ?

[birdy]

on another post with a2 stroke pulling manovures and every body saying how dangerous it was [and is]. can we start a discussion of the dangerous points and why? i"m asking to talk about rotor management .I think they mita been refern to 2banger reliability Tony.BTW, its crap.Rotax 2bangers are just as reliable as 4bangers, if they are maintained per specs and sized rite.Theres nuthn id do in me ferel that i wouldnt ina 2bangered machine.

[tonydenton]

thanks birdy, so are his manouvers safe and calculated considering his obvious experience or is it just me going cross eyed trying to keep up with him.

[birdy]

Of corse theres risk Tony.Wenever you leave the ground your riskn sumthn.Its your experiance level, machines responce rate, and your familiarity with it that determins how high the risk is.And no, i saw nuthn dangerous [ life threat"n] but sumthn will bend if he gets caught.His experiance level will determin how much bends.

I have been away for a few days so I have some catching up to do. Hi Russ, Apology accepted!

Hi Sam,You are right about the CoP and HS needing to correct it.

[IanM]

Hi Sam,Thanks again for you input.

[asra]

By the way!

Hi all , just my thoughts on the sport copter comments,as someone that has

[Brian]

The Mustering version Sport Copter certainly looks the goods and after seeing both Ian M in his SC at Tassie and and the fellow from Griffith..........????? flying around obviously having a lot of fun and enjoying their machines, I have no doubt that the "muster"er" will be just as good to fly.Jim Vaneks credentials are second to none. Anyone thats game enough to loop their gyro obviously has a lot of faith in themselves and their gyro!! I have heard a whisper
