Wow! I applaud your enthusiasm!

December 2, 2024. Wind was very light and north, sky was somewhat sunny, and the temperature was reasonable at about 0 degrees. Andy, David, George and I flew this afternoon from about 1pm to 4pm. Easily more than 20 flights between us; glider, biplane, jets, sea-planes, and sport planes. It was fun.

Tomorrow looks like about the same conditions. Maybe we'll do it again.

Thanks @GuyOReilly .

The temp feels like winter today (Dec 2) but the only snow is on the set-up tables.  What's a Winnipegger to do ?!!! 😇😂

Skis @Andy Hoffer , skis makes the plane a winter one!!

Hmm......

How is a winter plane different from a summer plane?!! 🤪

Does everyone have their winter planes ready for the season?

Wind west at 25 gusting 35 kmh
Temp -1C
wind chill -10c

Lots of nice raggedy low-flying cumulus

Great crosswind day!  And no bugs!!

Snow pants and winter boots were great add-ons for my flying costume !!

Gotta love it!

Looking to buy two (or 3) Guillow's or Dumas small rubber power kits.

Prefer the beginner kits like Piper Cub, Javelin, Lancer or Arrow.

Please send me a PM if you have one or two kits.

Just put the plane on the scale: 7lbs 3oz.
Power requirement should be around 100 watts per pound so approximately 700-800 if with a brushless motor.
But what about EDFs??   
How can I measure power of the 2 ESC/EDFs?   
I know that it will taxi, even at 1/4 throttle, but there will not be unlimited vertical performance with the current setup.

Beautiful!!
