I think this is just going to be one of those things we keep an eye on - yesterday it was showing 3mph winds and sunshine ... bloody weather is like the lottery :(

Having watched the weather forecast on Calender earlier, I think it's fair to say that it going to be an indoor event now  :(
But I'm sure it will be good fun all the same

Ha ha ha!!! It is still on regardless. Got the projector and some indoor aircraft sorted out so plenty of fun there.

THERE IS LOADS OF ROOM INSIDE anyways so should be great for quads etc.

I am gonna make sure I have a fly outside WHATEVER!!! Damn you weather you will not stop me flying  :P :P

I am off outside now to do the naked GOOD WEATHER dance in the back garden!!!  :o

Just a REPOST but saves me writing it all again!!

We can only have Sunday 25th November which is accesible from 9am - 2pm.

We can have the HUGE sports hall which is more than big enough for all quads and small indoor planes. It has power for charging etc.

There are full toilet / shower facilities. There is a vending machine and coffee machine but thats pretty much it for food so bring your own....

We also have the whole sports field at the back of the site which is big enough to get pretty much anything off!!!

The area is surrounded by countryside so should get some great FPV flights.

Address is:

Campsmount School
Ryecroft Road
Norton
Doncaster
DN69AS

This is the Google Map of the site. The sports hall is the building bottom left with the field to the East of this. Zoom out and I am sure you will see what a great site it is for FPV.

Thanks and hope to see you soon.

Man I'm totally looking forward to this, I'll be flying outside anyway - if it's super windy I'll just stay really close in and to be honest I'll probably spend most of my time doing goal dodging anyway ... sweeeet!

FPVSteve

I don't think I have any indoor trainers though .. so I'm bringing my gorilla slippers ... haha!



;D

Teamftp

Looking forward to the slippers...!! I feel the need to go and get some myself now!!!
