Another nice one Gerald, I didn’t realise just how overcast the day was but the Mavic footage sure shows it up.
Glad to hear that Ricky, I know it happens to the best of pilots and always looks worse when it first happens.
I think the old Steam Punk Flyer will also go back together again if only to finish testing that bloody T1000FS auto pilot. I’m just re printing a new motor mount and the rest of it is just a bit of glue & reinforcing tape.
Sorry Kermie but I’ll have to take Uncle G’s side here, when I came past just after 10:00am there were indeed 2 boats on the water at the Western end.
I think participation was about even as we also had 2 boats (or maybe 3) on the water, just not for very long. Anyway it’s the thought that counts and everyone was out enjoying fresh air, even if not sailingWell at least we tried.
And I’m sure we will do it all again in 2020, only better.
All you need is a good downhill run & I’m sure it will get airborne.
Yes Gerald, looking OK, hopefully it will also fly OK. Just finishing off the pilot & passenger to add to the scale look.
I’ve installed an A3 V2 stabiliser just to see how it flies but if it goes well I’ll install the FY-41AP so I have full Auto Pilot capabilities before any long range FPV flights.
Race 2, 3, 4 & 5 videos have now been added to post
No, No Kermie, you’ve got it all wrong. Well at least the wrong “Fat Man”
This is to whom I was referring


Thanks Col, great report as always & another fine day @ The Duck to end the year.
Merry Christmas everyone & a Happy New Year to those that I don’t catch up with before 2020.
Yet another fine video there Bad Angel.
It’s a pity you are still painting or we could have flown again in the morning.
Oh well always next week before the Fat Man comes.
Good one there Uncle G.
Kermit, I will give you a hand tomorrow to set up the program to work correctly.
If you install Teamviewer (https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/windows/)on your PC I can dial in from here and assist you.
It will work fine, you just need very specific settings, especially for Youtube.
Another great day & a fine report there Col, excellent pics by Tristan. I’ve added a few more that I took in the Photo Album section accessible via the link above.
Tristan is now a paid up member so now has access to the site to post his pics.
Yes Moose you missed a great day but I’m sure there will be plenty more.
