did 'YOU' fly today??

[Cheredanine]

45 mins this morning, an hour at lunchtime (wind picked up) and last lipo charging for 5pm session

Just practicing high speed split-s back and forth

[Jazzz]

Yes flew six packs bit windy so tried the 1800 mah 4 cell on the dark tail making it in to a leathal weapon it';s was a bit of a brick but sounded great in the turns with the extra weight

And came home with all my props for a change

[DarkButterfly]

flew a few packs today, crashed twice but didn';t break anything, not even a prop, felt good to be back on FPV hooning round on fresh batteries ::)

School holidays half a battery before I was swamped by kids

And had good sesh .
Thay loved it

[Two-Six]

Yes I flippin did fly today :-)

At a camp site in Pewsey, (Wilts).  I zoomed about skimming over a grassy meadow with horse jumps in it, FPV of course and zoomed it up really high and checked out the scenery.  It was very good indeed, I put 5 batteries through it. 

I asked the fellow campers if they minded if I flew, they were fine with it and actually they totally loved watching it.  It made their day. I could hear em behind me going ohhhh and ahhhh etc :-)

The campsite lady was VERY enthusiastic about "drones" and FPV, so was her son.

I gave her this web sites address so she could check things out.

I did mention that having some FPV racing on her land might earn her a few quid as we talked about diversification in the farming industry..like you do... and she was even more interested...Like a little FPV racing festival, chemical bogs, camping, and food vans and that.

Hummmmm 

I just got back from zone 2016, the RC helicopter competition.  I got a chance to try out flying round a little fpv racing course there with gates and flags and markers.  It was great having a go at it and I wasn';t as bad as I thought I would be.  I did pretty good..relatively speaking.  I also discovered that my quad is quite crash-proof.  Yay.

That';s what I did as well for a few months 

[apollo7]

planning on popping up to the field for my first flight of the phantom 3 in a few minutes

[Kellarly]

My first hover since my New Years day debacle. Come Monday, and hopefully a sun and no wind day, I';ll b able to put some packs through my 210.

[wobblybob]

Had a small tumble . But I was too giddy and took off without giving her a once over . Lost a prop and hit the ground at a fair wack .
Not one to be defeated by the simple thing of smashed quad . Out from the bottom of the she some epoxy and fibreglass.
Think it looks ok . Back out tomorrow ,fly , crash, repair , repeat. 

[AmiSMB]

Got out today and flew all three quads and used up all of my packs 8 in total.

Was really nice to be out in the sun with little wind.

[Budgie RC]

Not long got back tried out a new spot today that was near the mcdonalds i was going to for breakfast, was a bit windy and misty but didnt put me off trying :) and got back to the ground in a fashion. Cant wait for the new batteries to arrive that i ordered on friday so i get more time in. Was a nice spot today and only 1 dog walker in the area and they kept their distance and i kept mine :)

[Jazzz]

No wind today great for a play

[Kellarly]

Oh yes. Will post a video later.

[Jazzz]

Yes found a great new place to fly with no disturbances
Makes a big difference

[Kellarly]

Yup, it';s great when you find a place like that. I';ve got an out of the way park to play in. Didn';t fly to the greatest of my abilities today, but not having flown since January, it was a bit of getting back in the saddle. Only one prop broken after my vTx antenna came loose and I landed reasonably gently into the ground.
