VooDoo ,bring the "field repair kit" ,that way after you receive the first award for digging trenches with you're wing tips you will be able to fly all weekend.
9 Days left
AHHHH the Rolling Lawnmower,Not for the faint of hart.Nothing like haveing chunks of dirt and grass flying off your wing tips when your doing Rolling Harriers........Cant get any LOWER then that.As for the Aunt Jamima sponsered Fusion it did not make it to the 12th flight before i put it in a Blender and blew the wing tube threw the top of the wing,so i whent out to my van and spent a good hour doing repaires and put her back up in the air and half way threw the next flight i was doing a Falling Leaf when the stab and fuse gave way to finish the flight with a Major Lawn Dart.....The good news is i have spent the last couple nights building a Super Fusion with lots of Carbon Fiber reinforcement and OMP is going to send me the NEW 80 inch Gas FUSION free of charge to make up for my losses.I just DIGG those guys over at OMP,they are a great company to deal with.The only problem i have is i dont have any time to get any trim and setup flights on it.I think i need to travel up this weekend to get some stick time,i have only flown at Sanford and them Daytona this month.......VooDoo

I would have to say that VooDoo does have the lowest rollers with the wing tip trenches.[X(]

Yep that is so true. That is what makes Voodoo is president of the Aunt Jamima Award association. Speed hucker being in vice president with his 100mph Diamond Dust core sample. Boy Rennie and I felt the world move when that thing hit the ground. It was awesome though. It has been recovered and ready for FX3D. It looks better than ever now.

I have never done a flier with so many sponsors! This event should be the one NOT to miss. Glad to be able to help. See you Friday.

I'm packing today and realized I have a minor problem. I am almost out of gas mix and need to get some more oil. My preference is Amsoil Saber, but I don't have local availability and probably can't get any before I head out.

So, without starting a war, what oil do you guys like to run in your DA-50's and what ratios? I have Pennzoil Air-cooled available from my local auto parts store. I can get BelRay synthetic at the motorcycle shop, but that's a ways away.

Or, does anyone have a bottle or a couple of pillow packs of Amsoil you would part with at the FX3D event?

Doug, I use Amsoil Saber Proffessional mixed with midgrade @ 80:1. I am going to pick up a couple of quarts next week. I will be glad to bring a quart up for you.

Here is a picture of the field, it is a E-W direction of landing not perfectly E-W but close. The picture is configured so North is pointed up.

I found a good map for you guys, if you’re coming from the South you may want to take 295 all the way up due to the construction in town on 95, coming from the North once you pass the airport exit the next one is 295. I will post the signs at the Lem Turner exit off of 295 just so you know your on the right track.

Well guys dad and I went out to the field today to make sure that everything is working allright. The Mustang flew with no problems and is not quitting anymore. The Diamond Dust is sporting its new ultracote and it flew awesome after all of the repairs from the pancake. My EF Yak 74" has new wings but when I took off the covering came off of the wing but with quick thinking and dad helping me out was able to bring it in with no problem. Can't wait for FX3D we will be there on Friday.
