      Thanks Ray. On the good side it's still intact and will fly again on a better weather day.

      Big ones tend to look like they are moving slower than they actually are. Chances are it didn't look like it was cruising around the 120 mark either.
      Generous application of wheel brakes after it touches down slow and stop it before it can run off the end of the runway.

            Like custom paint job. The checked board pattern on the back . What is in the engine bay? Seen the real thing years back they are probably most difficult boat to drive.

              They are not fast but they are a hand full. They are a blast to drive. I used to race a gas powered one when I was racing gas and it was my favorite class to race. They rarely flip over so most finish. This class runs 1800 kv motors as a stock class. I cant wait to run it.

                    What kind of problems are there with the new pond? Sorry for asking since I have not had a chance to make it down yet. Just curious

                      Want the short answer: Manatee just like Sarasota County are being A**HOLES! No respect to our club or our hobby! They want to mess with us and give us a load of put as many obstacles in our way with the hope we will go away. I say to both counties. They just don't care! We need to talk with Benderson Development and get a big retention pond for our permanent use.

                      Just my two cents on this issue.

                              Same here Dave. I've already removed the posted run schedule from the website until something is decided.
