For any of you that are wondering, we don't eat our young in Lincolnshire, we are mostly fairly sane(ish)

Obviously never been to my village.

Maybe should have been more specific on that i.e. people "from" Lincolnshire don't eat their young. What people from further north or south do is entirely their own business.

Lol, glad that`s cleared up :)

Hope the weather ok, I`ve just sticker`d up the Skywalker with Bardney sticker

FPVSteve · April 19, 2012, 05:57:25 PM

lol Chris :laugh:

I've still to finish my EasyStar build, got completely side tracked with work :o

Hey Chris

Can you put me down as a tentative yes, probably only going to make 1day so will choose the best weather day

hoping to have 2 fully ready planes so long as I dont crash and burn them before the off

woohoo

mjc1970 · April 20, 2012, 09:48:03 AM

Are you bringing the new ZII 6lennn? Look forward to see it if so.

Cheers
Matt

6lennn · April 20, 2012, 10:05:30 AM

yes mate, I should have the zeph as all Im waiting for is the 2nd battery, it must be on a slow boat from china

will also have the pheonix

I have another wing which I may bring along as I dont like the way it flys, could do with someone else having a go and letting me know what they think, it has either cg or thrust angle probs, kinda flys like a pancake under power, glides fine though

cant wait tbh

FPVSteve · April 20, 2012, 10:09:06 AM

:(

Looks like Saturday is the best day (for now) ... Sunday is apparently rainy, and winds 23 km/h Gusts: 58 km/h

See how it is closer to the time.

When's the North East Scotland FPV meet ;D ?

Lol, a bit far for me to nip down to Bardney from Aberdeen during my Higher exams :D

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can Monday swap with Sunday please? Thank you!!!

Chris in Kabul · April 24, 2012, 03:44:17 AM

Being as close as we are Steve, we can go down there anytime.

Coyote · April 24, 2012, 09:56:50 PM

If all else fails we can just make it closer to the summer, I am coming down this year for certain

FPVSteve · April 25, 2012, 09:53:00 AM

Uhoh, here it comes...

This is going to sound fairly crappy but I don't think I will be coming after all now because my Easy Star motor is bust and that's basically all I have to fly - I've ordered another but who knows if it will arrive on time, and I certainly won't have too much time to test the plane out beforehand.

Aside from that, the weather on Sunday is looking rubbish and I wouldn't fly in high winds / rain anyway. http://www.xcweather.co.uk/forecast/bardney

Having said that, once I have my gear sorted I'm up for meeting anywhere weather permitting so while events have conspired against me for this, I'm still up for a meet on a different day.

Sorry guys, nowt I can do though.

pk-surfing · April 25, 2012, 11:12:50 AM

in that case I invoke the rain gods on your house for the next 40 days....

It's 10:10am now and probably not raining with you but I have commanded it to start pouring down on you in the next half hour ;D

PK

FPVSteve · April 25, 2012, 11:20:22 AM

It is raining actually, lol.

Look - if my motor arrives, there's a chance I can go (because I really want to) but I don't want to have to turn around on Saturday afternoon and say "i cant come" and let everyone down at the last minute. Like I say, I'm up for a meet sometime else, whether that be during next week, next weekend or in October lol.
