Anyone flying tomorrow? I finally got a few flights in earlier in the week after a month off. Got caught up getting my car ready for OC and Firefly Prep for the station. I did get my 5" Element built and am just waiting on the 600tvl Mini camera to get here to get it balanced and tuned. Initial hover tests were good but got a lil squirrelly when recovering from maneuvers.

Did anyone make it out to the field today? I couldn't make it. I did have a little time to put together my latest toy. It's gonna be too windy for a maiden tomorrow.

Noah and I have been busy with Scouts. He completed his Eagle Scout community service project this weekend. All that is left is paperwork and a board of review by the DelMarVa Scouts Council and he will be an Eagle Scout.
The plane looks nice.

Me too...lots of distractions the last few months. Not enough RC playtime!

Would really like to. Have not had much RC time this spring.
Scouts stuff tomorrow with Noah.
I might stop by to say hi if I see you out there as I drive past.
