Radio came back today, Horizon unable to duplicate any problems. I put the RX in my trusty Yak and took it up as far as I could see it and just as far out, everything is okay. Put it back in the Eurosport, everything is good. Should be at the field before lunch. Weather looks great!!

I got home late last night. I was thinking about packing the truck and heading out this morning... but I'm just beat. Oh well... I guess feeding the family has to come first.


Make sure to post up pics !!


See you guys in the Spring.

Here's one Dr. Honda.
I'd like to add that making the the drive down to Titusville was well worth the time. Some great jets, excellent piloting and what a fantastic flying site......gotta love it. Hopefully I'll be back next year with my jet.

Well another great OC-Turbo fest is in the books, the weather was absolutely perfect and all in attendance had a great time.
We had 14 registered pilots, many thanks to the guys who made it to the event.
We had representatives from New Jersey, Ohio, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Here are some photos that I took...

Here are the guys behind USA RC Jets, the Xtreme ARF distributor in the USA.

From the left... Billy with the Viper, Jim with the Discus Glider and Doug with the F100.

Jim let me have a try at the sticks on the Glider, it was very cool!

The event is over and all I can say is wow about the weather. Complete sunshine and 3 mph winds most of the time. We had most of our usual bunch of great guys and some new ones. It was a great weekend and Im glad everyone had fun. This is such a nice event because I feel its a close bunch of guys and we all love to fly. We had 2 great nights of camp fires and this is a great wind down time to talk about the day and relax. This now has become a tradition at the event. Thank you all for coming. here are a few photos

Great weekend, Great flying and good friends. What else could you ask? Still liked Hiller's flight on the F 100. That plane sure looks real in the air.

This was one of the best jet events that I have attended. Very laid back, great bunch of pilots and not crowded ( I was able to get in 10 flights on Saturday and then sit back and enjoy watching everyone else) The weather was also perfect. How are you doing Bob? If you have some time I would love to see some of your video of my Yellow Aircraft A-4.

Ok A-4 video is all set. Please either PM message me or post here how you want everything on the beginning of the video. Your full name, make and model of the A-4. Turbine used, servos used etc and I will put it on the video. Billy's video is set to as well as the onboard F-100 video. Just waiting for specs on everything. Let me know thanks and I will fine tune it tomorrow night.
Thanks
Bob

I have been busy since the meet and I haven't had time to say what a great time I had. The weather was just perfect!
I had 22 flights on the Eurosport with the new Rhino and the Velox with the Cheetah was ballistic!
Always a good time in Titusville!

Thanks to all that came. We order that special weather just for this event. We are going to keep the fall event as a non-advertised to the public event. For the flyers only. What a relaxed time I had. In fact to call this an "event" is almost stretching it. This is more like it should be.... just get together and fly jets on the weekend. I like the bigger events too, but we are not going to try to make this one of them. It's another type of fun! Thanks guys!! I had a ball!
