Well I finally got some time to test it, its not as easy as some helis, but so damned agile, I LOVE it!
So here are some happy snaps...
First a quick run around downtown Chicago
...
Then it was off to Las Vegas to try something Rifleman had come up with recently
...
Then a quick dip into the Grand Canyon for a speed run (my forearm was aching after 10 mins of this run!), and yes the speed is correct!
...
...
Then it was off to San Fransisco, and a quick traffic check on the bridge, and this wasn't easy as she suffers torque effect v.badly (just like the real thing)
...
...
...
And finally I'd discovered that the computer screams at you when you are getting low. The 10 feet alarm sounds like the computer is going to soil its hard disk!
...
Love this heli!

Nice shots Ozzy, but does it worry you that someone repainted your Gazelle halfway through the flight?  Grin

Nah, sounds perfectly normal for Mark to be hanging from the skids dabbin' some paint on the body 50 feet off the ground Grin
