Default RE: micro plane

I fly my micro cub in the back yard...but my the space I fly in is appox 350' x 200'...so there is plenty of room

i also fly, well...i should say "hover around" my 450 heli there too.  I am still too new with helis to actually try and fly it this close to my house.  Last thing I want to do is have to patch a roof or replace a window because of the heli crashing through.

I also have a Firebird Phantom that I have flown back there.  Its almost too much as it can get a little fast when there is no wind and it being a pod type system...is easy to lose orientation at altitude.

I prefer to fly at our club field...no matter what it is Im flying.  But having a couple small planes and the heli makes it nice to be able to fly without having to make a trip to the field.  This especially being the case during the week after work, when I never go to the club field.
