The I'm going out flying thread 2016

This is what happens when you fly with the wrong kind of people. @capthis may or may not be in handcuffs in the back of this car. Some old dude called the law and said some Hooligans are flying drones. Two sheriffs showed up. Really nice guys, just asked about the hobby, what we were flying, how much it took to get in the hobby. And then we flew for them for about 20 mins. Then we stood around and talked at least another 10-15 mins with them. Really positive experience.

The old guy just wasn't happy were were in the back of this subdivision, at least 400 yards from his house, no other houses around, blocked by trees on 3 sides.

Great to read about a positive experience!

Warbirds over Pueblo tomorrow. I love the look on the faces of the die hard scale warbird guys when they realize my CarbonZ T-28 is actually a big chunk o' foam!

It is amazing how good a chunk of Chinese foam can look. I took this picture at our Warbird event of a members foamie jet.

And fly! I flew in 18 mph constant wind that had a lot of the stick built corsairs, jugs, etc grounded. Seems it's easier not to care about beating up a relatively inexpensive chunk 'o foam.

Had a great afternoon at the field yesterday. Got the Carden in the air and the CG is now right on. Plane flies amazing.

Didn't take any other picks. But got to spend the afternoon with some great friends and got some great flights in.
