Funny, that's another thing that's kept me from the RC field. At least two weeks ago I misplaced the only pair of glasses I had. They still have not turned up! Not sure my 2 year old doesn't have them stashed away somewhere, either her or the little yip yip dog of my wife's. Anyway, I'm near sighted and can't see things far away so normally I can see ok without them and it's taken till this coming Friday for me to get to the eye doc. Then there will be another week or so wait after that.
Obviously, being near sighted makes it kind of hard to fly RC! I'll have the glasses by the time I get the C/L plane but even without them I could see it 60 feet away.
I live in the country and the top of my lot is mostly hardpack dirt with some underbrush. I plan on mowing it down good and making a full fledged flying circle up there. Thanks for the tip though.
Regards,
Michael
