    Saturday afternoon was raffle time. Some great prizes including airframes from 3DHobbyShop, servos from Hitec, and ESC's from Castle: The excitement starts building as the planes in the air are called to finish their flights... Steve from Castle was able to stop by and support the raffle...

    Saturday? Already? :O Wow time flies ;) Good morning! Nothing like waking to the sound of gassers taking to the skies! We flew well past sunset, and even past midnite...typically six to eight planes in the air. Some of us even stayed up "a bit past midnight" ;) Today the people are rolling...

    Rarely does an FLI occur without some unfortunate, unplanned meetings with terra firma...here is one case: In the following case, Fred pushed his 100cc Aeroworks Edge airframe to structural failure. While pulling out at the bottom of a downline, the right wing failed and snapped...

    So here's my first installment for Friday. The weather is perfect! Sunny, 85 degrees, light wind, a huge crowd, music from djmoose, Bivens is here, Team 3DHS is here in force. The air is full of planes, the soybean field has claimed a few victims, and we've got guys assembling planes on site...

    Josh, Thanks for the offer; I think I've got it so far. Having said that, if you want to bring the motor box kit, I'd be happy to use it...I'm sure this isn't the last time I'll need to repair this thing...I've been pushing this plane really hard this year. :) Here's some pics of my repairs.
