Gday Kieran Great job on the site mate this is great stuff. I will not see you all this weekend as my glider is getting an overdue extensive refurb and also working on the uber cub. Cheers Rob B

Gday All See you on Saturday Kieran and co. Will try to squeeze in Sunday as well. Glider is refurb'd and ready as am I.

Mate wait until you see Kieran's Decathlon. Overpowered, overpropped. Super awesome. Has got through it's smoke machine /destroy motor phase and flew very well on Sunday in Kierans capable hands. Che...

Gday All Pretty stoked now I am the new owner of a DX7 however am having trouble binding the bugger, I will try again tonight however may need some help with this one. Stay tuned. Look forward to se...

Gday All Thanks for the tips on the 2.4 bind, I was indeed not holding the Trainer Switch on, can't seem to find any reference in the manual that states that though? Kieran that glider looks kickass,...

Gday All Bind successful, trick was to totally ignore the Spektrum instructions and hold the bind button for bloody ages. Now all I have to do is work out why all my servo centres have changed? :? ...

Gday All Shame about the midair however a bit of glue and a quick buff should set things straight, I always seem to miss out on the "good" stuff. Kieran is obviously your basic menace in the air. I ...

That's a big shame that repairs would be too extensive. A midair is obviously a bigger hit than the powerlines however both seem to be pretty terminal in most cases. Bad luck story for sure. Cheers R...

Gday All I choose to be optimistic re this forecast. The Cub has to get a go this weekend and I also plan to unleash my refurb'd P40. Therefore any rain can just sod off!!! General MET Briefing ----...

GDay All I too am hoping for a shot later today however the wind is not expected to moderate until about 1800 hrs tonight as per Airservices Pilot Briefing. I intend to review at about 1400hrs as if ...

Whooaaa, that has to be the ultimate backyard. The weather seems to be tidying itself up nicely, wind is right down and the sun is shining. I am going to finish washing my daughters 15 tons of clothi...

Gday All I am a bee's you know what away from successfully negotiating 2 days worth of flying AND a trip to Kellets. :D Wish me luck. However will absolutely be there on saturday after the Kellets...

What an utterly crappo forecast for today. :( Prepared for: ROBFLIGHT YSSY SYDNEY AIRPORT WEATHER BRIEFING ISSUED AT 1658Z ON THE 28/08/2009 [0258 ON THE 29/08/2009 LOCAL] ...

Love the updated radar. Note that GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) is no longer. Due to the Yanks getting nerky about having to refer to Greenwich they managed to get it changed to UTC or Coordinated Univers...

Gday All An early start on Sat sounds good. Weather should be great and the wind is forecast to be a light to moderate NorWester. Big improvement from the last few weeks however might be a bit crossw...

Gday John Your Glider looks awesome, if she flies as good as she looks you will have one sweet machine. 8-) Going to be nice to share the sky with your aircraft, Kieran's Siren and John's ASW. :D ...

Gday All Very sad news re the Snowbird! However, Darren has demonstrated admirably the difference between a Pilot and an Airman. Anyone can be a Pilot, being an Airman takes a greater effort in regar...

Gday All What an extraordinary day today. Not a day for rc flying that's for sure! Cheers Rob B

Gday Mick Great photo, is that taken from the sheds at Flemington/ Lidcombe? Also.. Damn this windy weather forecast for the weekend. Saturday Windy. Mostly sunny. City: Min: 19 Max: 22 We...

Gday Colin We were wondering when you would find out your plane had been retrieved. It was a very cool effort all round, Kieran and his aerial recon and Steve's super ladder make a formidable team. S...

Gday All Latest TAF from airservices below, Steve we may need a few gyros this weekend. TAF issued 0309 UTC. On a brighter note (no pun intended), Daylight Saving not too far off ,,,hurrah!!! TAF S...

Gday John I'll show you how to find the MAC (Mean Aerodynamic Chord) which can then lead you to the correct CofG point. Cheers Rob B

Gday All Dust is clearing up nicely however pretty windy and gusty at the moment. Cheers Rob B

Good luck tomorrow guys, weather forecast is not promising. Not even going to bother commenting on the weekend weather for fear of infesting this particular post with far far too many swear words. F...

Gday All I almost went down this morning however there has been persistent very light rain all day. I am not sure how much moisture a motor would ingest in conditions like this however suspect it wou...

Gday Steve The weather has been crap here all the weekend, it was looking a little better this morning however has just started to lightly rain as I type this. I am going to head down, weather permit...

Gday Steve Rain dribbling pointlessly down, still hopeful things will be ok'ish in 1/2 hr or so

Gday All The sun is shining, or trying to. I will be leaving in 1/2 hour or so, just have to settle my daughter down first. Cheers Rob B

Super dodgy weather today, forecast not too good either. 2152 UTC 02/10/09 AIRSERVICES AUSTRALIA GENERAL MET MESSAGE BRIEFING Prepared for: ROBFLIGHT YSSY ...

Gday Paul I must have missed your altercation with the windsock. I always considered "Socky" to be a quiet and benign type of character however if he has been giving you stick I am more than happy to...

Gday Paul That was indeed a damn good repair job, nice one!!!! If you hadn't told me you trashed it the day before I would not have known there had been any damage at all. Cheers Rob B

Gday All I have posted another thread in regards to Coleman stuff. I can only reiterate that the pricing is red hot and I will pass these savings directly to you all. As an indicator on pricing I can...

Gday All For those who may be thinking of flying this arvo, beware inclement weather. May lightning repeatedly strike the power lines and melt them into a glowing metallic pulp. 2141 UTC 22/10/09 ...

Gday All Bummer that I could not fly on Saturday, hope all who flew had a good one. Great to hear the Siren is up Kieran, not surprised you are cooking the electrics, we would expect nothing less fro...

Gday Drew I will be taking my dogs for a strut in an hour or so, I will wheel by the field and have a look for you. Cheers Rob B

Gday All I have the rest of the week off, if anyone is heading down to the field let me know and I will try to drop by to say gday. Also, I noted a comment stating that Kieran has joined the rotor he...

Gday Drew Sorry for the late reply, I have had internet issues, no did not find anything at the field. Cheers Rob Byrnes

Gday All Hope you all had a great xmas and Santa's gifts were all LiPo powered. Not too sure about the weather today! I am going to focus on the "easing later" bit. Rain has been constant and heavy a...

Gday All Weather report for the next few days looks about as friendly as a truck crash. 2149 UTC 04/02/10 AIRSERVICES AUSTRALIA GENERAL MET MESSAGE BRIEFING ...

Gday Kev Wondering which day you will be at the field with the "monster" bits. I am easy either Sat or Sun, however will be hungover to the max Sunday due to a Sat night party that is going to be "in...

Gday Colin I would be happy to help you out with the above, have just the toools to do this. Also, funny article below involving a model aircraft in the UK, luckily Toongabbie residents are obviously...

Gday All A truly dodgy morning indeed. Looks like a "build" day for sure. Field has got to be a swamp after the serious rain we had yesterday and overnight. Also I do not know what you guys are compl...

Hehehe, nice one Steve, if anything Mac Bank should be proud of the way this guy keeps focussed on the figures and their related vital statistics. After all, that is what finance is all about. Cheer...

Arrr Captain Vella, arrrr. Your Jet ski we be needing for flying today, arrrr. Cheers Rob Byrnes

Gday Paul I will be leading a true life of leisure until the 1st March when I begin a new work contract, I can't remember the last time I had a decent amount of leave, pretty sure it was 3.5 years ag...

Gday All Just had a wander down to the field to see just how bad it is. However I could not actually reach it due to the huge amount of water flowing through spraycan alley. Can only imagine the inla...

Woohoo Big day for Mr KevJ on Sunday. You're going to turn into a ducted fan nut bigtime, I can see it happeninng after, maybe...... 2 Habu Flights. :D Then you are going to want a jet!!!!!! :lol: ...

Gday Chris I have a 13*4 and 13*6.5. I'll bring them down on sat just in case. What are you jamming that on the nose of? Cheers Rob Byrnes

Gday All I will also be at the field tomorrow, charging and checking is occuring as we "speak". Looking forward to maidening a new, yet familiar to us, addition to the Robair fleet. Cheers Rob B
