CRESt : F5L : 25/4/24 : 28:00 Well that was interesting ! Trying to work thermals that are 5m across. Fly through and you bounce up, turn to circle round and you sink. First, the full flight, with the now standard 56m motor cut. Almost no breeze, maybe 1 or 2 mph above 60m. Many times I found lift and I knew it was there, yet, unless perfectly positioned it did not go up. So there would be a few circles maintaining height, then when in it there was 30 seconds of lift and then it dodged out of my way. Oh, lots of VERY high gulls. Then at 13mins I actually got in real lift. You have to see the expanded version, because though in the very narrow band – well just look at how it got bounced. Then the in it / lost it / in it / lost it. Here is about the 20mins mark. Again bouncing about, but with the added fun of sudden gusts of wind, which could be in any direction. So each time the wind changed, I went down wind to look. Again bouncing through narrow bands. One last thing, from half way through it kept spitting with rain. I decided that if the weight etc of the rain brought it down, then it would come down. But after a good 10mins, I was not going to be the one that brought it down. When do I get widespread lift and zero wind ? -

Hi We carry stock of the popular C507 servo which might fit the bill.
