Default Rabbit Lake Get Together June 10-11th

With Speedjunkie and Flyboy Daves permission, the Rabbit Revver Bros. fly-in and bar-b-q has been moved to Saturday and Sunday 10th and 11th!

I actually have never been to Rabbit so Dave or Junkie can maybe give a map or info. about the lake-bed... Just wanted to get a thread going about it-

I always say half the fun is sharing what aircraft we are bringing and talking trash to each other about who is faster---

I will bring my Rebuilt Jett-50 powered Patriot for a rematch against Dave, an old school pattern plane (Supra Fly-45) and hopefully I will have my Whip ready, at least with a TT pro-46 on board, possibly with a Jett-50 or Jett-60LX aboard if I can swing it..

Anybody else want to share?

Roll-call?

Thanks again to Junkie and Dave for being flexible with the date so I can make it up there-

PERMISSION GRANTED!
Even if all you have to fly is an .049 powered glider bring it! ( as long as the Brotherhood has the permission to Change out the .049 for a OS .91 and test fly at no cost to you!
Everyone is welcome! Tell all your friends to come out!
I will be providing free Carne Asada BBQ to all that come!
I can cook better than I can fly![sm=thumbup.gif]
FBD has frequency control board I do believe.
You have unlimited take off and landing in any direction for about 6000'[sm=thumbup.gif]
If you can't fly with this runway may I suggest R/C cars as a new hobby![X(]
FBD Can give official directions If he would since he lives the closest!
We can all spend the night at FBD house and raid his Fridge![sm=lol.gif] (just kidding FBD)

Kev- Just make sure you hold me to it... cuz I love my Patriots- I will bring it and you (and me) can fly it a couple times and see if you like it- I actually hope you do not like it

The nose was repaired so the cowling is sorta half-arsed but it scoots... Webra-50GT standard Futaba servos.

No idea of a price we can talk about it- I was hoping you would go for the free F-20 below instead----

I will also bring my Cermark F-20 (60 sized) that you can HAVE if you promise to fly the crap out of it--- and I can include the Tower-75 that runs *****in' making the total cost $50
[8D]

It has all the servos installed (std) and tricycle gear retracts (retract servo alone is worth $40-) it just need some TLC, the engine installed and some windex- motor mount (wood beams) is chipped or broken a bit-- who needs 4 bolts anyway?

Are you guys camping? I have an SUV but I dunno about over-night--- Can I pass out, err I mean sleep on someones floor or something cuz I am 2+ hrs away-

I am stoked about this trip!

Flyboy Dave- I flew the Jett-50 powered Patriot today.... Your worst nightmare! We have witnesses this time too-

Kmot- It'd be sweet if you could come down and hang for a bit---

Anybody else gonna make it?

Speed Junkie,

What time does that mean you are waking up???? 3AM??

Actually this sounds like fun, hopefully it won't be too windy. 2 out of the last 3 times I've been there have been too windy to fly

and Junkie... What the hell is a Hurricane Cobra? (Heli?)

It is also worth mentioning that my Supra Fly-45 is powered by a Full piped, heavily modified (Chuck Auger) Rossi-60. Turns an APC 12x7 14K [X(] So this old school pattern plane is probably faster than Daves F-20 also- That makes at least 3 planes that I have in the ole shed that are faster than His Rossi ship... (He is going to be depressed, eh?)

I will bring a few raffle prizes ( Note- these are gag prizes of no real monetary value) for categories like:

1. Most take-offs without a landing
2. Pinkest plane
3. Worst facial hair (Fidel?)

Razor this is my Cobra!

If it's a heli then it's the worlds fastest R/C heli!

Crashed by 7am?[X(][&:][:@][][:'(][:@][sm=lol.gif]

No way!There will be way to many planes their to be all crashed out by 7am!

But if that becomes the case and nothing is available to race by 7am I propose that we race in what we have arrived in![sm=thumbup.gif]

I will pit my 32' chevy 454 motorhome against FBD's motor home two laps around the dry lake bed!

If we crash those by 8am then I propose I race FBD on foot around the crash site of the two motorhomes!

I know I can win that race![X(]

No matter what we will have a good time by all and make it something to laugh about until the next one!

And Razor if your passing out free airplanes I can alway's find room in my hangar for one more!

Cobratraxx where the heck have you been hiding!

You better be there with your fancy launch platform to show us how it's done!

Is that 4.54 / 45.4 / .454?

Must be a gasser?

Is it DA or Zenoah or something?

Sorry I do not recognize non R/C displacements---

Seriously though- I am looking forward to this big-time!

Junkie- What food items should I be bringing

Cobratraxx,

Can't wait to see the new and improved super launcher!
Sweet!
Bring it in style in your Corvette so we can all get a ride at about 160mph![sm=thumbup.gif]

Razor,

I am bringing all of the Carne Asada steak, Fried Bell Peppers and Onions, Tortillas and Lots of sodas for everyone! We will not leave hungry! Bring whatever else you think we need![X(]

FBD,

It's on now!

Helium in my tires
Unload all of the water and the honey bucket waste out of my tanks
Remove all silverware and 8 track tapes
Dump as much 20% Wildcat in the tank as possible ( I think I have a pint left somewhere)
Strap my industrial 48" 5000 cubit foot a minute fan to the top of my shaggin' wagon and plug it in to my Onan generator running on full throttle
Duct tape all of my planes to the side with the throttle stuck on full
Close all vents for more aerodynamic sleekness
More to come!
