Last weekend (Memorial Weekend) was one of those great impromptu "lets go fly" weekends, where there was more people at the field than at a scheduled fun-fly or other organized event... It was beautiful weather and while a little heavy on the wind (especially as it was crosswind) it was still a great time to fly!

One of our newest members, Charles Harding, brought his "First Person View" or FPV setup, where a camera feeding live video to a pair of goggles real-time from the aircraft is all the visual that is used to fly! That was pretty incredible to see Charles under the hoodie, flying the plane as if he was on-board... With Marsh sitting stand-by on the main controls should anything go out of band...

It looked really cool as he was stalking another aircraft! Amazing formation/dogfight flying! Here is a link to a YouTube video of this flight!

The shed has moved! As have some critters, but their choice was not driven by desire in the same way as the shed was moved for convenience and safety for our club members. It will be so good to have everything just by the side of the pits! Now, as for the guys that used to live in there, I think their term is up.

Per Hammarin, Gary Robinson, Denny Smith, Don Johnson, Dean Shires and Fred Gay (in order of appearance, while only the first three actually made the voyage across the field) helped getting the new location organized! We were all as pleased and surprised that the plywood skid/skis worked so good! Not a trace of trauma on the runway at all! There was a very short period of time when we contemplated taking the long way to the pits with the shed tagging along as a roller weight, but we got smart(er) quick...

Now we just need to get all that solar power gear going Marsh!
