All..
We got it..
Tele made her first take off at the lake Sat.... Down side was I way screwed up on the C/G, way to far forward and I ran out of up Elev. in the flair.. Didn't hurt it and this afternoon I fixed the C/G issue..

Good job, were the police called or did they happen to be there?

A snap of Telemaster.. She's a peach and the GoPro looks great.. We still have some issues but it's getting there. I put 3 flights on it Sat.. (08-18-11[8D])

No, they just came by to see what we were up to.. It's a private lake bordered by by Desoto Co. MS Hi School we were on but after talking to some residents that were out walking there dogs or what ever they seemed to like it.. We have been respectful about the noise but the problem with the 12' Telemaster is that it's a lot farther away than I realized until I reviewed the inflight video from the GoPro.. I had flown well over the houses and this was uncool.. I don't want to upset anybody. FWIW: Range is not an issue, we are running a Dragon Link 70cm RF deck on a JR transmitter.. The range is amazing..

Really nicely done. I'm waiting for my kit to arrive, and might try floats some day.

Hi everyone!
Nice job on the Telemaster Build!
I also got mine up this summer. Flew very well at the Gaylord Michigan ALPS Splashin in August. Flys very well off water and in a stiff breeze.
