| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 09-May-08 15:10 |  | | Views : 787 | | Ah yes, right near the top. As one RC pilot of 38+ years told me - next time crash lower in the tree. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 09-May-08 15:02 |  | | Views : 812 | | Oh yah, you all know what this pictures means. Obviusly pilot error was involved, but in my defense there was an issue with the wind blowing my off track then I couldn't seem to get power or lift enough to avoid the oak tree. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 09-May-08 15:00 |  | | Views : 846 | | Flights on the new batteries were 20-23 minutes with 900-1000 mAh drawn from the battery. Recharges took 20 minutes with 90% of the recharge done in the first 13 minutes. This was about as high as I care to go for now. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Flying | 09-May-08 14:58 |  | | Views : 808 | | Out at the field again, 2 hours before gassers are allowed to fly. Warmer than before and a gentle breeze that will eventually shift 180 from what the wind sock is showing now. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Build | 08-May-08 22:47 |  | | Views : 829 | | The Tyro is repaired once again and tips the scales at 17.2 ounces with the A123 cells (3S1P 1100 mAh). The rather large piece of wood on the floor is a fuselage side from the Aero-Star .40 that DD so kindly sent me. Next flight is tomorrow morning. |

| jgood | Molt Models Tyro | Parked | 07-May-08 09:03 |  | | Views : 1005 | | Out at the field this morning. A lovely 'no wind' morning. |
| SteveM | Molt Models Tyro | Build | 05-May-08 23:57 |  | | Views : 798 | | I added some tabs at the rear of the hatch so those magnets are probably not needed. The velco patch helps keep the battery from sliding left and right, there really is no room for the battery to move up or to the front or rear so this might be enough. |
