So I have given in to peer pressure and am posting flight logs.
Jan 5th 9 am.
Winds Calm.
Temp 10* F
Plane Sukhoi
Duration 4 Batteries ~10-12min each
Type of flying: Mixed some general flying to get it trimed in then mild Acrobatic (loops, outside loops, rolls, snaprools, immelman, split s, inverted, and limited Knife edge no real 3d with a 2 cell)

The learning curve with this palne is steep but I am enjoying the challange.
This was flights 4-8 on this plane. I am pleased with this bird inthe calm. The cold seems to take some of the punch from the batteries. I purchased a 3 cell today to try when the weather breaks.

Type: General mixed aero tried to hover

Flew in Classys front yard and street. Let Classy try it out I think he likes it. Tried out a 3 cell with different prop. The 3 cell has unlimited vertical (fun). Had a hard landing airframe was unharmed but found out that snow is not good for a speed controller. When it stopped working we took the Super Decathlon out. Tried the speed contoller today and it is OK :).

The Decathlon
2 flights General cruising around and a few low and slow passes.
Again Classy flew some too.
