After a few weeks early morning flying at this field, this afternoon was the first time I wasn't there alone. Three other pilots showed up. Had a friendly chat.  Burned two Lipo worth of flight time.

Here's an 8 minutes unedited video. Note at 5 minutes mark, I switched on the GPS position hold feature and the quad hovered in position for close to 3 minutes without any control input from the RC transmitter. (caution - boring video)

Some strange crop circles there....

Nice flying, very smooth.

Takeoffs are optional. Landings are mandatory.

It was very enjoyable!  Thanks!   I am now dizzy!   :'(

I used to fly off soccer fields before I heard of TEMAC.  Everybody tells me you guys are a bunch of friendly pilots up there and they'll make you feel right at home.  Well, with that soccer field look, I really feel at home now. lol!  :)   Thank you guys, and hope to meet more of you soon!
