Hardly any wind though when it did come in it was a weak sea breeze from behind us. I had two motor issues. My Parkjet shedded 4 of its 5 ducted fan blades but still flew a half circuit noisily with one blade left. And my Tigermoth on its last battery for the day threw the prop in the air so will finally get a quieter motor and prop next time. And Andrew threw a prop from his repaired glider. My big biplane had the oldest servo driving the elevator which was a bad idea as it died after a minute or so into the second flight. I managed to land using throttle to change pitch.

Kermit and Gerald had a date together so only Mike was left to do some brief video footage today but still had to bribe Moose to win the Best Video of the Day. I have 2 air videos. Here is from my Drifter including going around trees and passing through a small gap with a fence the other side near the end:
