Hi Guys, Unfortunately I have other commitments tomorrow so no flying for me, as much as I would love to go to the PEMAC swap meet. Sunday morning early maybe an option for an hour or so at McCoy bu...

Hi Guys, No flying for me tomorrow as I am out all day, although I expect there will be someone to open up the gate in the morning.

Hi Claudio, Yes I am listening intently, I have copied your power train (10x6, Park 480-850kV & 2200 3S Lipo). Thinking of upping the prop to 11X6 given the feedback from George and yourself plus th...

Like Steve B I hope to be down at the field early for an hour or two.

I will be flying early Sunday morning this W/E. No Saturday flying for me. Chris M

Went down to the field today at around 12pm, it is a tad wet at the moment. Although I have to say that mowing that extra width to the strip (southern side) keeps the water further away from the nort...

Wayne, the strip has had a short back and sides, so you shouldn't have any problems with small wheels. I intend on flying Sunday morning if the weather is favourable. Chris M
