Well me I got my both Beavers ready for some serious bush flying now.
Beaver #1 C-GBDY is fitted with Large Tundra Bush wheels and my Beaver #2 C-GULL is fitted on floats and ready to fly as soon as my beach site opens up after the flooding .

Nice pair,
I've always liked the look of a Beaver, I might get one this year.
Which model do you recommend?

Hi Michael

Well this one is the Flyzone EPO Beaver and the most scale design I have seen in RC BEavers so far.
I just added major details to them but even without added details it looks great and it comes with floats too.

Finally found a spot to fly my Tundra Beaver :)
Same area where I was flying on skis but a bit further to walk.
It was a farmers dirt road and upward also in a slant add to this crosswind :eek:
Anyway it was fun fun and fun :D
I thought those tires would be a total disaster after all those take-off and landings on harden dirt but as good as new so the Rubber Rock Guard is good stuff.

Here is a small video

Hi Guys

Finally got to fly a bit sat morning real early in thin fog condition
It was dead calm but still had the current.
I was practicing departing and docking to my mini dock not so easy with current so close to the shoreline but I did lots of good ones
I have many video clips to edit so I should be able to make a nice little video of all that.
Here are a few shots

and here is a small funny clip with sound effects when I hit the oil drum :D

Paul what do you think, if you got a small male figure with a small bend in his back ,or just leaning over a bit from the edge of the dock, holding on to a rope, so that it would look like he is waiting for the plane to pull up to the dock, and he would be ready to throw the line to the plane.you would again have a pic that would look real,if taken from the right distance. Paul your pics are incredible.
