Sunday looks like it could indeed be an OK day to fly but unfortunately I will be otherwise engaged.
If you get enough interest to make it a day I’ll contact James & let him know.
I’m not sure frogs in hoodies should be trusted around “Amber liquid” or knives. !!
It’s a bit of a worry when the water is even too cold for the ducks.
Got the new front (or is it rear) case 3D design finished and printed for the VISOR X HD Digital FPV goggles finished & fitted.



Just need to make up a battery lead. The short HDMI to mini HDMI lead is on order and should only be a few more days.
Oh, and I printed a spare one cos I’m sure Neil will be upgrading to digital once he tries mine out.
Hopefully weather will clear up soon.
Yes pretty happy with the fit, almost perfect.
Finally got around to re printing my Zero after the fly away mishap a few months ago with the first one.
In case you didn’t know I accidentally flew into the sun and lost sight of it. Had no idea where it was so just powered it down and used the ELRS tracking signal to find it.
It was a long walk but finding it was easy with the tracking signal. Unfortunately it looked like it had clipped a tree on the way down. Easier to re print than repair.
This time I’ll add a FC with return to home as being a small plane (and quite fast) I wouldn’t want to lose another one.
Anyway the reprint was quick & easy as I already had all the files modified & saved for the Bambu X1C printer.
I re used the nose cone & canopy and re printed the rest.

Agree, definitely a missed opportunity.
Hopefully better luck & a bit more notice next time.
G’day Chris, nice to hear you are well & still flying.
Unfortunately the last couple of decent flying days as proposed by Seaside Mitch didn’t eventuate due to time constraints.
We are currently flying back at the Shearing Shed field whilst the Property manager sorts out the gates off Rifle Range Rd ready for their soon to be Public opening of the Distillery.
At least we have our own keys for the Shearing Shed access.
Will be looking forward to our next flying day as I’ve just upgraded the FPV system on my Kobuz glider to Walksnail Digital 4K FPV and once the final bits turn up I’ll be dead keen to try it out.
Looking forward to catching up in July. Hope the weather is flyable !!


A quick test video from the back yard
Sorry guys, been a bit busy & only just got around to checking the forum.
Yes, a bit late now but hopefully next week the weather will be better.
Another fine video from Toad Hall Productions.
Definitely caught all the action from around the field today Mr Kermit.
Now we just need to get you back to flying, hopefully the new glasses will improve things eh!
G’day Pete, if you ever get lonely at sailing you are always most welcome to drop down to the flying field (not far from the canal) and come in for a chat and/or a BBQ lunch.
Mike
With Hoppy returned to the Phillipines (for the Aussie winter) and Kermit off on sick leave we are a bit light on in the video department this week, but at least Neil (with grateful assistance of Sinker) did make an effort to get a couple of pics on his phone.
Sorry Mr Frog & Pete, no sailing from me today, grandsons birthday party.
Ahh, cuisses de grenouille.
Delicious
Access sorted, calendar up for Sunday.
Looks like Kermit won’t make it this week so I’ll bring the BBQ.
