Well well well! We all leave tomorrow to see it for real, but this has given me a taste of what to expect over in Mauritius from the 2014 Cabrinha gear!

This was leaked earlier today, Reo Stevens towing in a surfer with a VERY funky looking Cabrinha...

I think he may have been trying a novel approach to trimming the high branches on his trees.

I had that happen to my Xcell 60 when the wire that drove the tail come loose of the grub screws. So so sensitive to pitch but did manage to land it.
Very funny watching people crash their beloved aircraft.

He is an utter idiot just for trying to fire up a proper RC heli that close to him. They can kill.

Nobody with a brain who has flown them would be any closer than about 10m when taking off. Almost Darwin awards material

Sounds like a sissy call, but here, let me google "rc helicopter injury" for you...

Here's one we made earlier: www.helifreak.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=219943&stc=1&d=1302036332

I love this forum.
Someone tries to pimp some leaky Cab gear, yet everyone just discusses the helicopter. Funny as!

Those colour's and designs look horrible.

Its not 1995. Clearly they haven't heard of graphic design. Way to turn people away. Product could be good but NO ONE is going to look cool with that. Seriously could have done better with MS Paint.

Back into Raceboards too...
