Hi All

We've previously discussed this and I think it's time to get the ball rolling at Mad Dogs 5.

This is an open invitation to any Suppliers or Distributors of FPV goods to come and showcase your wares at the meet. Uptake is normally slow at the beginning but once word gets out, we normally end up with 12 - 15 flyers and a couple of spectators. 30th November will be cold, but that never deterred us last year and most will agree it was about the best Mad Dogs meet we've had, which resulted in some excellent frosty footage from all.

This should not be seen as a sales opportunity so much as to be available to field questions on your offerings and bring equipment in for people to oogle at (or buy if they wish) and generally come and meet the community you serve on the web.

The intention for next year's Spring and Summer meets is to grow to 20 or more pilots and spectators, be more organised, have t-Shirts and Sweat Shirts available to purchase (for dirt cheap) and have a more organised flight line, separating frequencies and I'll be investing in ground station flags etc. again to aid in organisation ensuring a safe and fun day for all.

Please respond here, or PM me your interest.

Hi guys,

EFPV will be happy to pop along with some wares & the offer of any help with aircraft setup &/or Fpv flying.

We could bring a few items that will ease those chilly winter days out in the field too!

We'd also like to bring some of our aircraft to demo, plus possibly a piece of exciting & exclusive EFPV equipment.... All will be revealed!

I had better break out all my "favours" and see if I can come along. I'd love to! I'll keep you posted.

A quick example of last years meet, although not a brilliant video, but we had a nice clear and frosty day

Why has this thread gone dead? It's Mad Dogs B*tches!!!

Here's my Twinstar maiden on the 1st December 2012 - I reckon we'll have as good weather and tip top sunsets et al.

Who else has video of Winter 2012 at Mad Dogs?

Come guys, get off the fence!

Do you have an address for this club?

Hi, put OX44 7JR into your Google and you'll see approximately where it is. BE good to see some new faces. Are you coming?

[Flyboysee]

Right, so far this is the line up:

1. CurryKitten
2. Flyboysee
3. Davey LC
4. CharlieWalker
5. Skyscraper
6. Hase2
7. Flyn
8. Krikey
9. Brucey

If anyone is interested in doing Christmas Common return (from Great Haseley, or the other way around wind permitting) which is a 10km flight and County to County please let me know so I can help you prep. I'm keen to do that flight with someone tandem. Who's in? I'm on DL UHF and 2.4 video.

By the way, there's a reasonably good 3G signal there (best on Orange) - does anyone have the tech to do a livestream?

Also, who can be in charge of nagging Coyote to come like on a daily basis until he cracks and says yes? We need an FPV celebrity :)

Any other fun ideas?

:flying:

Place for six more flyers.

Im half way there in terms of kit to do long range as I now have EZUHF but only 5.8 video so will probably manage 3-4km. I'm dabbling with the tech for live transmission, following Coyotes testing the other day, so I could have something working.
