I don't see why not Keukpa - sign up and you're confirmed. If anyone / everyone then wishes to call it at a certain number, they should discuss it here. We have previously had 10 and found this was a comfortable-ish quota for frequency management etc. Much more than that and we may run into problems. No point in having big numbers at a meet and there are few flying spots and the clashes of frequencies becomes a problem.

Is anyone prepared to help manage the flying combo's to help ensure we don't run into problems? Or have any ideas to manage things better on the day for an enjoyable and safe meet?

For example, I have 2.4 video on one rig. I don't really want to be flying with someone who has 2.4 control.

What do you all think about the above points?

Thanks

I'm more than happy to help in any way I can, but I'm not sure how the video side works,like how many is it safe to fly together,I've still got my 35Mhz gear (with plenty of xtals) would it help if I used that for the day?

Ratty · May 06, 2013, 10:05:36 AM

I should be coming, but as always cant confirm until closer to the time.

We had 3 immersion 5.8s in the air yesterday with no probs. ;D

Yeah the video was spot on, even when some of the planes were on the deck :)

We need to try 4 pilots on 1,3,5 & 7 :D

We also need to take control into account. Those on Dragon Link and other LRS Systems have no impact, but 2.4 sits on my video, possibly others too...

Hi guys - is there room for one more? A dirty dozen? Just mentioned the thread to my wife and she said 'sounds like fun, you should go...' :o :D

She's just had a hip replacement op, so I'd been wary of abandoning her, but with her encouragement I think it has to be done. But only if there's room for one more...

Vtx is 5.8 and r/c is 2.4. Will bring my Phantom Photoship as well as an fpv kitted foamie...

Cheers,
Nick
