Good Morning All!

It's 06:15am on the day. The wind is zero and there is a mist over the village and surrounds which looks like it will lift with the morning sun by 9am. Should make for great footage and I'll be taking off after first light to try and get it.

That said, please drive carefully and take it easy, there's no rush!

Last night I put together an intro for video's made at the meet - might be nice to fly under the same banner on our YT channels. Take it or leave it - Here it is.

You can download it with YT Downloader or PM me and I'll mail it to you - it's a small file. 

I'm looking forward to meeting you all - here's to a fantastic day's flying with few, if any mishaps :)

Hi Everyone!

It was great to see you all today and to meet new faces. Most of you had driven a long way to and fro. Many thanks for making it a great meet up! The day was full of action, with lots of high's and low's, as well as several maidens and firsts! All in all I think it was a fantastic success!

I'd like to propose that we make this a bi-annual event, one in summer and one in winter. How do you all feel about that?

I'm looking forward to all the videos that will come out of this meet.

Thanks again for coming!

Thanks to Rich for organising the event. It was great to see everyone again. A real shame that Mark lost a plane.

I'm definately up for a bi-annual event. Bring on the BBQ for the summer is all I can say.

I'll come in the summer, will bring the family down too make a nice day out - especially if they bugger off to the shops :D

Gav

Hi yes I was enjoying myself till the mid air :o
Got some nice video of Dave's plank in the tree and Aitch's hex flying up close to my quad.  Signing off for the rest of the weekend now as better spend some time with the family.  Will cobble together a vid next week.

Putting my wreckage into a box and shelving it for a while.  Will order in a boom or complete frame, cut a gimbal plate out of G10 + new set o props and fix it up over the Xmas period I reckon. 

Thanks Rich for hosting and enjoy hoovering up.

Cheers
