Yeh! That would be Fuc%K&ng right. First Saturday for over a month the strip might be OK for my big planes and I have to bloody work................ SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! I am happy to take ove...

Walked in for a fly this morning. The driveway into the strip has recovered pretty well from all the rain, it is still a little damp but definatley has improved since 2 weeks ago. The sad thing is t...

That definately looks the goods Jason... I might just have to get one myself... at that price its a steal! I went online this afternoon to buy one but the price has gone up but $400... Oops !!! It...

Robert Byrnes, you know the wispering voice of Australia Day. He dropped by while I was mowing, as did Russell, you do know Russell don't you?

They do race on Sunday Dave..... go straight to the top of the class. I will not be drinking until the telecast starts at 12 before that I will be shopping with my lovely wife. You are welcome to dr...

Thats not good enough Wayne. I think you should go out and buy one, as a matter of fact...why don't you buy a ride on? :D

Did anyone drop by the field today and see how it faired after this morning downpour? I was going to stop by this afternoon for another few flights with the new Seb but it was blowing more than I l...

You hit the nail on the head there Paul, I was going to join Steve for some combat aircraft evaluation today but the wind is howling. So I stopped to check the field on the way home and I am sorry to ...

Thanks Steve Bloody rain. Who was bitching about the drought last year? Ive been working in this crap all week. I am so over this precipitation. I say bring on another drought, the only good weat...

Sorry I can't make it down to help out.... but as usual I'm stuck at work till late. Gazz

I would like to say I will drop by and help, but my dance card is beyond full tomorrow, if you dont get it all done let me know and I will drop by friday afternoon and finish it off. Gazz

Hey Steve or anybody else that can give a field update. I am thinking about coming down early tomorrow morning to give the strip a mow if it is still to sodden for Darrens Mower, can anybody give me ...

Good for you Pete No time like NOW to really jump in there and completely go west and get yourself a heli. Good luck with it my friend. One small piece of advice.............. little steps............

I think is the most practical and cost effective of all our field improvement options.

Sorry Edited Version Not Happy

Good idea Steve.... Go over and set fire to the frikkin field ......maybe that will help get rid of the frikkin water..

Steve I will join you Friday. What time are you mowing

If its as bad as you say it is Steve we need to get photos of the damage and present them to council and ask them for support in some way, shape of form. Our club pays good money for use of this fac...

I will be flying Sunday this weekend and will have the sample hats for fitting if any club members are interested in purchasing one. The are 100% UV stabalised synthetic and are simmilar in design to ...

I was almost going to drop by this afternoon with my big sea plane for a fly after I says Steve's shots of the strip/ river.

I stopped by the field this afternoon to burn a few Trojan batteries that needed a work out. I have not seen the strip since I mowed it 3 weeks ago. The grass on the main strip has certainly enjoyed ...

Sorry I can't drop by and help you guys but my schedule this week is off the ricker. Thanks for the effort.

Bravo Zulu Smuzz, That is good news, I too hope to be down nice and early tomorrow... but that will depend on what the boss has planned for the weekend!

Sorry Dave but bugger the heli fliers.... its ANOTHER week before I get to maiden my Deuces Wild, ......and I'm not carrying it in it weight a ton.................. see you in 2 or 3 weeks ... I hope,...

Excellent work Jason but I think you may have got the western end to far to the north. There wont be enough room for the car park and pits plus the 30 meters distance off we need between the pits and ...

Nice work Steve (and Owen) Appreciate the effort

Bite me.... Steve :-P

All we have to do now is get ride of the the bull rushes so we can start reclaiming the main runway. We will speak to Parramatta council about it first, if we get no joy from them we will have a chat...

I dropped by the field to look at where the work had progressed to today to find Steve, Chris and Jason busy filling the low points and checking the strip level with a theodilite. We paced out and di...

Thanks for the effort men, it is very much appreciated.

Wow ... Look at that !!!!!! Even the smallest RC clubs on the planet have friggin signs!!!!

Big thanks for the effort as usual Steve. Does anything else need the once over? If the weather is kind I'm happy to come down at the preverbial sparrows fart tomorrow morning early if it needs it.

Yes we are Andew. Kiran will be down on Saturday to take mug shots and I will be taking them on Sunday.

Let me know if you want a hand on Friday Steve. I can take my mower to work in the van and meet you there from 3.30 on.

Hey Kizza Can't open that link mate. I would like to see the pics though. Is there any other way of opening it.

I have to agree, the idea of having variable flap positioning might sound practical and would be if you were sitting in the aircraft and had that seat of the pants sensitivity as you do in a light air...

It will fit on your back seat Rob. George brought it to the field today. McCoy was a bog. We flew at A51.

Lookin good George... will be nice to have the maiden at McCoy... just don't rush it!

Don't sweat to much about your build time mate. I'm still building a 90mm Jet Teng L39 that I bought 2 years ago.... Its almost there... but not quite.

Sounds like a nice spot Steve Dont suppose you took any pics. I arrived at our field this morning hoping to catch up, re your post from yesterday. After looking at the water damage, chating with the...

Thanks Steve Apology not necessary mate, Was thinking about going out to Penrith with you guys but saw your post to late last night to reply. I ordered a T33 today but wanted to know how big the ba...

The real trick is to learn to use just the right amount of throttle. Issue 1. Not enough and the bird losses altitude quickley which causes an automatic brain response that triggers adding a heap ...

I too was more than impressed. A "micro flybarless heli with gyro" that was flying thanks to Dave with the finess and stability of a much, much larger heli. If any body is thinking about getting into ...

A few of us (fixed wings guys) headed out to Penrith today to sample their field. A really nice bunch that were very welcoming to us PRCAC guys. The flying conditions were all but perfect. The field...

Arrived at the field this morning at 9.30 to find 7 cars full of people waiting eagerly to commit aviation. The day started sunny and clear with a light breeze that turned into a strong gusting wind ...

You are spot on Rob, dont need sound card thingies, you should hear the great sound of the big twins at full throttle, the ground test blew me away, not only does it sound pretty sweet but its got big...

Bravo Zulu for the effort too Steve, I am no expert but I think flying skills can be improved (irrespective of level) with the help of a sketch and some good old well explained text. (Thats how the Ro...

I had a HK Stuka Steve and if I slammed the elevator back hard it would roll straight over onto its back, took a little getting used to. Gazz

Thats a good idea Angus but what you have to careful of is the servo mounting!!! If you are using the same brand/model servos with a Y lead to will still need a servo reverser as they will be workin...

Hi Angus Looks great mate. On the servos issue, if you need a servo reverser I have 3 of them that I bought for a project that I dont need. If you would like one let me know, they are pretty small an...
