Gravity sucks, or should I say, is the downfall of all things flying. It's the way it's controlled that makes the end memorable or not.

Listen to you mate. We haven’t spoken in over a week, yet you’re happy to assume I’m still out for the count? Ye of little faith.
I’m coming tomorrow, I’ll have some wings with me... and, even though I haven’t had time to prepare anything other than my little autonomous wing, I’ve got a few options at my disposal to improve glide slope. Unfortunately I am unable to set an engine brake without removing the ESC, which is out of scope for this evening, but I’ve gotta give you guys half a chance... don’t I?

I finally made it Down the Field, and got to fly some my old favorite planes, I thought i would have been more rusty on the sticks after not flying for so long but it all came back like riding a bike.
Had a lot of fun and looking forward to more flying

Same here... but then Trevor called me from the field telling me the air was still and that I should come down. It was not flying weather today though, not even close.

Wind finally looks good, but the rain might make it a hit or miss.
I plan to pass by the field Sunday morning, pending conditions.

Hmm, I’m free tomorrow but looks like a fair bit of rain over the weekend.
Will make a judgement in the morning and charge batteries then if I make the go decision.

I didn’t get to the field until 1pm, but still got two packs in. Not a bad turnout all things considered.
