Windy stuff on Youtube
« on: March 24, 2013, 09:31:02 PM »
If anyone is interested I have posted some Windy videos on my YouTube channel.
Windy told me to post any of his stuff that might promote the hobby. Some of it is dated but still has some good info.
 
Ill be posting more as time allows.

Enjoy.

It works.  Watched the one about the end of the day.   Why can't we land like that when the judges are watching??

After watching Windy rebuild his Strega I decided to drag out a rebuild project of my own. This was crashed 2 years ago and I will turn it into my first Viper electric.

shure its off-topic

Because we are flying in front of judges for max. points.
This causes stress and makes us nervous,
not shure I belive many of us.
Because we push ourselfs to max. to give our verybest in flight.
Shure its a different thing when you practice all alone.
Make shure, Claudia Schiffer in her short skirt is not walking the dog around your circle.
Maybe a quarter shot of M..nshine or Champagne can maybe solve the problem
and you good to go for,....landing.
Try to eat one apple a day.
Get your nerves under control and go practice for better landing.
I hope you all understand my sense of humor.

I don't know if anybody else has taken the time to watch some of the videos, but I have really had some late nights watching them. There is some really great info on them and they are fun to watch. To bad Windy is not as involved as he once was.
