Choppers, autos and/or boats, with rc-pilot onboard crossing the Channel, Pond, Pasific etc etc... ..tried it, wound up in the drink, with honors, on T/O off a quay, a frozen wheel bearing. ;-) Idea was, set a distance record and land at site of the Northern Norw. Championship. ;-) Next T/O, there, needed a wee pirouette to lift wheel with said bearing, a fuel tank pickup tube not on todo-list, forced a silent wingover, premature hot final over hot lines, to take advantage of said bearing to maximize needed landing point score, silenced annoying awed event speaker, and city, in sparkling glory. ;-) ..morale; investigate first, then repair, sleep and preflight, improvisation and man, has a few, but firmly proven limitations. ;-) -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;-) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
