Title: at the field may 29
Post by FLC on May 29th, 2015 at 8:48pm
Nice day at the field today, bouncing between cloud and sun, wind and no wind.  The wind we did get was crosswind but seven people out and a lot of flying.  No damaged airplanes, and a couple of bumped around quads.

rick and john liddard were flying their 250 racers FPV trying to get through some gates and a hoop.  They did have some sucess, but not at racing speeds.  the shot with the hoop is an optical illusion, the quad is about mid runway and nowhere near the hoop.

Geoff and Chris were doing some nice formation funcub flying.  Craig had his gopro equipped quad in the mix shooting video.

the guys in action

the last two shots show john and rick looking for pieces after rick bunted john in the bum while going through the markers.  everything found except rick's antenna.  they were back flying in a short time.  those quads are tough!

chris taxiied over to the hoop and did a ground loop through it.  you can see the left wing coming up against the hoop and that swung the cub through.  Chris made like he planned it.  lol
