  • 0800 is the idea in my head, David.  The reality may be different...

    Sounds like a plan Andrew. (:  Although, how early is early?  We were planning on hitting white night tonight and too early tomorrow morning may be a struggle. (:

    I'm bringing my Y6 out to give the new firmware a spin and I also have finished my Mini-Talon (plane) so keen to get that out into the daylight.

  • Might make an early morning attempt at Willie to not crash my Skyfun again tomorrow (Sunday). All fellow Melbournian flyers of all forms welcome. The BOM is making good promises it probably can't keep but we'll see.

    Oh excellent - look forward to it. (:

    In the meantime guys - I was thinking about flying this Saturday late afternoon / evening.  Sunset will be 20:19.  I know it's not for everyone but my other half is going to Springsteen for work so I thought I would rock out with my prop out (yes, sorry bad joke).  The winds are again meant to be up on Sunday and whilst it's meant to shower a little over the weekend, I'm going to back my gut and say that it'll be light or nothing at all on Saturday evening.

    If anyone else is interested, let me know and we can sort out a place otherwise, I'll go random and try somewhere completely new. (:

    We had almost 50 people last time. :)

    Thanks MJ...  But maybe in front of a fan holding a beer! (:

  • do it front of a fan and you might even get some sensible data.

    Good call Dave.

  • Major Disappointment!  Just when I've figgered out how the APM logging function is configured and how I was going to log airspeed.  Maybe I'll spend Saturday reworking the pitot and static ports instead.
