A quick 4 min video I pieced together from today. The last clip is our newest pilot Jim. He can take off from a hand launch and everything now.

1/2A's are a lot of fun. I wish I had video of the day I took my daughter and the kids to the school ground to fly my fleet of 1/2A Skyrays. My son and his friends came up. By the time it got too dark to fly I had one flyable Skyray left out of 6. Lost count how many flights were put in. I know I sat back and watched the fun. D>K

Thanks guys. Holden was running his own fuel, but the rest of us ran Joeys fuel. We ran him out just flying Cox .049's!

Our go to reedie set up is 35' power pro spectra lines, 20lb test line. It's .008 diameter, so you don't change anything there.
Our favorite prop is a 5.5x3, CW (backwards).
Fuel is high castor, 20-30 percent nitro. Joey makes the fuel, so I don't remember exactly what the last batch is.
Here's a link to the line, but there's other brands, and there's the hi vis yellow somewhere
