Yes thats fine. Some of the ropes may need re-done as well as a few have been cut, broken, re-tied, etc. We should pull those and replace them. Again, youll be on your own as I cant make it that saturday

Hey Scott (and everybody else interested). I just made an update to the events page http://www.wfmbc.com/WFMBC/Events.html If I don't hear any complaints or add ons I'll leave it as is and just extend it out to cover a few months.

Looks great Bill... however contacting me at this point is pointless since I don't know either ill send a blanket email out tonight and see what others have to say

I can be there on the 12th with the retrieve boat. And, as Scott and I discussed, I think some (if not all) of the anchoring lines should be replaced at that time as some of them are pretty ratty. Any objections?

And Bill, good work on updating the website, looks great! Thanks.

Just wanted to thank Chris for shooting that third round video of Q. That small backstretch zoom-in segment let's me know I have the strut heigth set correctly.

My pleasure.

I laugh every time I listen to Scott's Aussie inspired commentary on that vid.

Oh, The Humanity!!

Was just checking rcracingevents.com to see how may were signed up. Looks like I'm the only member from our group that will be racing since the registration has been closed there with 21 racers and 82 boats. If you've been procrastinating and still want to run you will probably have to send some emails to the club officials.

Bill,

I'm signed up. I found this on the sign up instructions NOTE: Late fee date is 5/11/2012. Entry cutoff date is 5/15/2012. Hey Scott the club emails are not going to my correct email address I'll send you a PM. Put me down for a new shirt in XXL

[bill34207]

Looks like the sign up button came back after I made that post. (Or between the time I saw it and made the post) It really did say the registration was closed early this morning when I checked it though.
Kinda looks like you're going to be a busy boy on race day Hugh.

Hey Bill, I heard there is a swap meet in Sarasota on the 12th? Is it SRQ club? Do they still have the knockout swaps they used to? I'm looking for a good buy on a WWI biplane, about 60 size if you hear of anything. We have a new group forming in the Tampa Area called the Dawn Patrol.

Bill,
Wave Blasters are in Ft. Pierce, NOT Stuart, FL You might wanta change that on your events page.

Go to the website http://www.sarasotarc.com/ and click on the upcoming events tab. They show to be having one on the 12th but it's not at the flying field.

Ft Pierce, Stuart, Pt St Lucie. It's al the same neck of the woods. If they click the link it will give them the address.

We should have been running today. This has been about the calmest wind day we've had in a long while. Already managed to get in two "outdoor" flights in my little Blade MQX Quadcopter this morning.
