I know it has been a bit windy and the forecast sucks, but I had the best nights on Wednesday and Thursday, the wind is straight down the runway and it's perfect for nice scale landings.  We also had a chance to maiden Richards Parkzone Cub (New one), it flew great and is very good!  Love it! They should be a hot seller for the club and great for the float fly's!   Everyone is so helpful!  Andy helped Thomas with his E-Flite 450 Cub that had a terrible noise from an unbalanced prop, he helped change it out and Thomas had a great night!  Jeff was there also and had some great flights.  I find that from 7:00 onwards is always good till 9:00.  Everyone have fun and fly safe!

Actually the problem on Thomas' plane turned out to be chafing of the wooden prop against the front of the cowling (which DID proivde a real scale engine sound which reverberated through the whole fuselage).  The thicker rear hub on a different prop provided the necessary clearance and the noise went away.   :D

Ed! I didn't know that you were moving.
There will be a hole in the club my friend.
All the Best forever!
