Flying Saturday August 25

[thehaze]

A bit of a hot day, but the conditions were too good for me to pass up the opportunity to fly. Lots of people at the field, almost like a fun fly. Personal highlight for me was Greg and I racing our EF1 planes.

Wish I was there.  No sitting at home with sunstroke again.

I was there, and thanks for taking me up Mike. 

My first ever airplane braking crash while sitting on the grass with no transmitter in my hand!  lol - wind took it off the table and broke the tail off.

Poor Bixley is currently healing with some foam2foam in the hanger.  I'm seriously thinking about an apprentice as a second set of wings.

Hi Dale, check out the Sensei.

IMHO a much better design for training. Watch all the
Apprentici tipping over on taxi. Sensei is a much newer design.

Getting ready for practice at Orangeville in Sept.? Who was the winner?

[thehaze]

Yep,

No winner, no loser really. But it would appear that both planes are quite evenly matched now that Greg is using the Eflite motor (I'm running the OS one). This class is definitely a pilot's race.

I can't wait to fly around the pylons.

agreed the e-flite motor really got the Toni moving

Sunday was good too!   I was there for a bit on and off... got side tracked trying to help some ladies on the side of the road that broke down...
