We had moderate rain yesterday. I expect it to be no better than when we walked in last week. We will be having a committee meeting at 11am. srl

With rain yesterday it will still be walk in. Committee meeting with good weather at 11am tomorrow so expect a good turnout and a lot of flying. srl

This one is for Andrew. This is what I remember and it only has to be done once. After this is done you can then use the transmiter it is in to flash it again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVTAD...

Still walk in this weekend. See you flying tomorrow. srl

Both the Thunder Tiger ARF and the Capp my father built for me took to the air again on 6 cell. Both were OK but you have to keep the speed up compared to more modern lighter ARF planes of the same si...

The AGM is tomorrow July 16 at 11am. Due to the condition of the lower drive way in it will be walk-in only. Please do not open the gate. See you then. srl

With no more rain forecast for Parramatta I'm hoping we can walk in to Mccoy and have some flying before and after the AGM. The AGM is at 11am. The agenda is - -Presidents report -Treasures report -El...

This would be nice to fly. My father had control line pulse jets in the 1950s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEy75nB9SLQ They are fuel tanks up the front. srl

Andew sent me some pictures , its now back to walk in. I'll be flying before midday tomorrow . Our AGM is next week on the 16th. srl

Mccoy park is now open, the road in dry and the strip has been cut. srl

A long time ago we would see a bit of this at our Nationals, the sporting halls in our inland towns were not as big as this venue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y36-4BM-bF8 srl

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHJJ8Qhf9Z0 SD card has to be updated. Looks like un ticking a box will force it to update. srl

Just had a look at the Parramatta council web site. Mccoy park is still closed so walk in only for us this weekend. srl

HI Andrew A few of us were flying last Saturday. I was ready to walk in but Pete had unlocked and open the gate. The drive in was Ok but only just. Pete had marked off the bad mud areas. Half the...

Field is still closed due to Wednesdays rain. Some of us had a look today and its not much better than the above pictures and the grass is much longer. No mowing of the strip was done. Will keep yo...

It's wet. I had one fly over the field (or water) of my small FRsky g-rx6 receiver with a XM+ attached as a satellite. No problems at all. Then the rain started again. srl

Thanks to Pete for mowing again during the week. I charged the bateries while the sun was out this morning and now the wind and rain has returned. srl

Its Saturday the strip has been cut and its been dry a for a couple of days and the rain is about to mome in. srl

Hi  I got a RCfactory Edge540 and now puting it together. It's not cheap but thats how it is now.  Its a nice design with carbon bracing. srl

I remembered this from over 10years ago, very impresive back then and now. At the time because of the A$ our members were more interested in $5 DSM2 orange RX's from HobbyKing than DSMX. https://ww...

Then its not just me with Frsky Archer. Could be time to change to the long time proven DSMX. Easy with a multi protocol module. https://lemon-rx.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=72 srl

All mowing has been done at Mccoy field by Pete and council ready for the new year. srl

Weather looks good for tomorrow (Wednesdy) morning. srl

I went for a walk in this morning. The ground was really wet. If you put off flying you made the right choice. No rain again so far so should be better for Sunday. srl

It's Friday morning and about to start raining again. Weather looks OK from tomorrow. I walked in Wednesday and the field is holding up well to the wet weather. Mud at the gate is a problem just afte...

Hi Carlou It looks good. Do you have a link for any information on it? When finished have someone go all over it before you fly it like Peter Hart or Jason V. A full check of the aircraft is standa...

With a 1000kv motor it will be fine. As with all aircraft check the C of G before test flying. Also consider how you are going to launch it. Having your hand in front of the prop is not allowed. srl

Hi Danesh The big Battery is for the long 30 min flight. Is the battery on the c of G? Do you allready have a motor for it? srl

This one is for Pete. srl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxIQoaakg1o

The plan was to be flying tomorrow Carlou but rain is expected. If it is not raining at 10am I will be there. srl
