Castle Hill +40mph

Flying In Storm Desmond.

Hi guys - Me and Paul went flying at Detling and there were four others at the hill by the time we got there - we all had fun.

Not That Long Ago...

Slope Soaring Again - Why don't you try it!

Windy again - Me and Mike went to Detling slope soaring and as it's Wednesday we never expected anyone else to be there.
NO we were not the first "nuts" there - four others beat us to it.
Want to try it? The Zagi is just £40 and some parcel tape - a couple of quid. Two old 148 servo's you put in the bin and that old 35Mhz Rx and a battery and that all you need to enjoy this side of the hobby.
The Zagi is almost unbreakable - the impacts it takes are unbelievable and you just pick it up and throw it into the sky again...
If you want advice or help - ask - loads of us have made them... 

Slope Soaring - Anybody !

I know its a bit short notice and its mid week but it looks good to go slope soaring at Detling tomorrow (Weds) - from about 12 to 2:30 is plenty of time for fun.
If you are interested or want a lift give me or Jan a bell.

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN WHEN PASSING THE FIELD...

Seems the lock and chain on our second gate is becoming a collectors item - We have now had the second padlock cut off and taken...
If your passing the field please cast a glance over to see if anyone is messing about with our gate. They have to be taking tools over there as its so far.
The short steel scaffold pole with its two brackets have been taken together with 2 padlock and the steel locking pin... No scrap value!
As a temporary measure the below "mod" has been done till it can be sorted The gate can't be lifted at this time...

Saturday Immortals Venture Out...

Noisy Exhaust? = Modification.

Simple but it works...

FOGGED OFF no swearing!

Left all the gear in the car last night feeling confident Sunday would dawn bright and windless like Saturday. How wrong I was. Got up early today and looked out the window and I was greeted with a white-out and the sounds of fog horns emanating from the estuary...
Great British weather. PS at least there was no wind!

What a differance a day makes :(
