Mike, Moose, Kermit, Uncle G and myself turned up for what was forecast asa light wind morning with wind coming up after midday. Well the wind had already come up by 9am when we all started (except for Mike and Moose who came later). Uncle G mowed the strip. Its now so wide you can land a Jumbo in it. Seems some pilots need the width including me as I landed right on the edge. I put a Hawkeye Split 4k camera on my eagles and set it to 2.7k/60fps. Here is the brief footage.

I reckon your lens needs adjusting Chris, focus seems way off both at close range (which is often an issue) and also at long distance (which shouldn’t be an issue. I think Uncle G had to fiddle with the lens in his 4K camera as well to get it right.
Wind or not it was another great day to be alive & flying in Southern Tas.

You’re not wrong BA, it was a tad windy right from the start but not too bad once you were airborne

WELLLL THE eagle attacked putt putt is repaired ready to take the fight to the cursed one Working on the fly baby wheel assembly as the old system nearly always detached on landing soo I’m following predators advice to spread the load over a greater distance from a base of 2”triangle to a possible 4″x5″ there about’s After that’s done I should be able to take the whole bottom of the fuselage out on landing , just sayin

Sorry it’s so late but I have been in shock after hearing that my video editing mentor, “Kermit” won’t be sharing his video because it was crap?

WELLLLL THE reason that the take off went so badly was because…… if you listen hard enough you will hear the undeniable screech of the big bad eagle which I must admit did intimidate me to the extent of flipping the fun cub ………FIRST thoughts were that the dragon had turned up but then on looking around an she wasn’t there that left the only other scary thing big bad eagle trust me fellas that’s the truth
