Give an old man an RC plane and interesting things can happen. Join the crew at the Tokoroa Airfield for another fun day of flying, fails and frivolity. This is just the first part of what was a great day's flying... subscribe and like so you don't miss part 2.
Thanks to the heroes who help me protect and support the hobby through their generous support of this channel:

I love those little editing easter eggs you put in for us Bruce.

Fantastic video, Bruce! Thanks so much for sharing!!! 😊 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Hi Bruce, nice video again! Me and my grandson are going rogue this weekend! He is flying a mini2 and i'm flying a toy grade glider, hopefully we don't end up in jail these days 😂

@twofacedmctwoface4876 11 месяцев назад

As an xflight test pilot on supersonic fighter/bombers, could I suggest RC builders reduce their servo speeds by at least 65% which will reduce control overcorrections and hence landing accidents by at least 50%... in addition flights will look more authentic...

Ah well, it is spring so things *are* warming up. Now I'll just have to find a decent hill so I can slope soar with all the predicted westerly winds that they claim we'll be getting this summer.

Wish all of you a good summer down there - where mosquitos fly upside down... Here in Norway the thermometer is descending down to the red... Why could not the earth be flat, so we all could have summer at the same time, then at new years eve we could flip the earth and have winter...

have to give those jets a shot of throttle just before you land, they drop out of the sky like a rock. I've smashed my A10 4 times now.

I really enjoy your flying videos, you, Ron and the rest. I recall something I think is funny perhaps ironic about the Councils granting wings or taking them away. The movies had John Wick deemed Incommunicado, The Prisoner, Number 6, deemed Unmutual. And your wings are Invalid. It's comical how we buy into this 💩. Thank you my friend😊❤🙏

@rc-fannl7364 11 месяцев назад

I see you're still going strong, nice. Btw, what do you think of RU-vid having started a tug of war against add blockers? They claim it's to ensure income for content creators, but considering how YT goes to great lenghts to demonetize videos while still collecting the money from these vids for themselves, it's clear it's about their own income.

Hey Bruce what is your opinion on Jacinda?

@xjet 11 месяцев назад

She lied to the nation then walked away with a lifetime of taxpayer-funded perks and millions of dollars in speaking engagements. The quintessential politician. In respect to CV19, while her motives may have initially been well-intended, she read far too much of her "mother Jacinda" publicity and totally lost the plot -- becoming far more focused on what's best for Jacinda's image than what was best for the people she was elected to serve. She resigned so that she didn't have to face the embarrassment of being tossed out on her ear (as her party was at the recent elections).

@xjet 11 месяцев назад

We are probably a bit unusual in somuch as nobody has a problem with people flying anything. We've had helis, gliders, nitro, gas, EDF, multirotors -- everything and we all enjoy either flying it or watching it. We celebrate that the hobby is so diverse that there's something for everyone. To quote one of my favourite movies "it's a bigg-assed sky" so there's room for everyone.

Hey Bruce, is there anything that has kicked off this attack on the hobby? Are people thinking because a drone in Ukraine can carry 'unsafe materials' that basic hobbyists are going to do something stupid?

@xjet 11 месяцев назад

Sadly the movitation behind most of the regulations that are crippling the hobby is $money$. Even sadder is that "safety" is being used as the excuse but it's not the reason.
