Thank you Mr Moose, no doubt it would have been me that stepped in it and broke an ankle if it was not fixed.

Very nice Uncle G.

G’day Neil, the Bix 3 is easier to access the inside of the fuse by removing the wings, the Bix 2 needs an access panel cut into the fuse below the mid mounted wing.

More stuffing around to install auto pilots etc in the 2 but personally I still think the 2 flies better. No wheels though so you need to hand launch

Well almost Moose, we had a roaring, hot Northerly come through on Saturday night (well early Sunday morning actually) from just after midnight till around 3:00am, luckily no damage to the tent though, and it started to rain just as we left on Monday morning. Other than that all good.

[Predator]

Yes Tug, for the first trip in a long time it was dry when we got there & still dry when we left (but only just as the rain started a few hundred metres down the track).

[Predator]

Well, what can I say !!

The poor little Eyas does look a bit worse for wear doesn’t it, but I’m sure a bit of Hot Glue will have it airborne again soon to give the resident eagle a bit more fun.

Yes Ron, the cows came a visiting almost as soon as we got there, they eventually wandered off but returned at lunch time, no doubt could smell the cooking.

[Predator]

Could well be Mr Frog, could well be.!!

Thanks Uncle G, another fine production.

Is that still the same old AXN you used to fly @ Elderslie?, it just looks a lot less beat up than I remember. Certainly flies nice with the clipped wings.

[Predator]

Thanks Ian, another Fun Day by all, except perhaps the Bad Angel who did have a bit of bad luck with his Eyas

[Predator]

Thanks Ricky, always hard to come up with something different, not too bad for first attempt at a “Ghost Cam”.

Off to the West Coast for a few days camping on Friday and in the interest of something different I’ve enabled “Sport Mode” (65kph +) on the Mavic Pro Platinum.

For something different I’ll try a couple of Hi Speed runs up & down the Henty River. Should be interesting. Perhaps a Hi Speed run along the West Coast surf break as well.

The mount is 5mm CF tube with a 3D printed plate for the camera (velcro camera attachment) and another 3D printed plate to hold it all square on the wing

Another quality Toadhall production there Mr Frog. Nice high tide for a change as well.
