Title: First day at the field 2019
Post by FLC astroflyer on May 7^th, 2019 at 5:55pm

First day at the field 2019! Awesome flying day. Myself, Rick MacDonald and Craig Maybee in attendance. Lots of flying. I particularly enjoyed seeing Craig's Eflite Osprey in action. Very neat bird.

first: rick launches a foamy wing. A very hard bird to get launched. Two attempts shown. Third try I launched it and that one was successful although difficult too.

More osprey. In level flight this sucker is fast and extremely hard to follow with a camera, but I got a couple. Those are the ones with the nacelles fully forward. lol

Rick also had a quad in operation. That sucker is fast and also difficult to follow with a camera.
