I hate you guys!!!! We just got ride of our snow and you have nice plush grass with 80* weather! ...my club doesn't open for 20 days now... Good 'ol Maine! -Steve

You guys mind if I "drop by" also?

But...what are those funny looking short pants you guys are wearing??

Do you ever fly your own planes??????

well i dont know but in fresno it only stays in the 80's for a few weeks if your lucky, otherwise its in the 100's 24/7! And let me tell you flying when its that hot is not fun at all.

A previous member of the SCCMAS in Morgan Hill, CA in the 90's, Wayne Geffon dropped by the SCCMAS field in sunny California today (4/6) and got some stick time in on Joe Hunt's Cap. Here's some photos.

Putting the cap through it's paces...

Last one...
Was good to see ya Wayne. I'm sure you'll miss the SCCMAS field again when you go home.

I wouldn't call it plush green grass... Our field is only grass in the infield and just around the runway. The rest is weeds, about 2 ft tall. It quit raining last week, so some things are green now. We are on county land and because of it, the gophers, squirrels and wild pigs have to stay. They are tearing up what grass that we have. And, it was only like 60 deg today. BTW we have a field phone too. Anyone can call and check live wind and temp (408) 776-0101. I kid you not too, but a webcam is coming soon too!

Anyone's welcome to stop by as a guest. Directions to the site are at www.sccmas.org

Here's a photo from Feb. The lawn wasn't as green then as it is now and you can see how it is being "eaten up".

Wind is picking up!

That is a very cool feature!!

Anytime, junior, anytime.

Wayne is a darn good pilot, Chris... he flew a couple of 12 minutes flights on the new super light Cappy. He didn't know the plane at all but looked rock solid putting it through a host of maneuvers... including some torque rolls. :-)

The new plane, the new radio, and the weather worked out great. Me and Wayne had a great time, but kept saying we wished you were there. :-)

Great pictures, Michael! Here's one Filip took right before Wayne had to leave (got a call from the wife that it was time to quit playing with the other kids and come home<g>).

Aww geez...you're making me blush...LOL

I'll have to book a ride on ValueAir or CheapoDepot Airlines...But I think I'll wait till you get that 40%!!!

That'd be Wednesday. :-)

I thought that was an "ewey" plane?<g>

You're right...I'd probably crash due to engine failure....

I'll wait till you DA-erize it.

Hey guys,

Thanks again for the awesome day out at SCCMAS today. Makes me miss the old flying field even more.

Joe,
I really appreciate the stick time on such an awesome (light) plane. I am amazed at how well it flew and its not even dialed in all the way yet. Not bad for the first day on it. You've got a winner there for sure.

For anyone who hasnt flown a H9 33% Cap (but has G2) it felt a lot like those planes on the sim that seem way too easy to 3D. The Harriers, TR's, Waterfalls, Pop Ups, Parachutes, Etc. are really, really solid on this thing. The DA-100 is (IMO) a perfect fit for this plane. I want this set-up bad!


Pug's:
Yeah I fly my stuff when I am home. But if I can play when I am at work why not.


Pugs is a guys in Atlanta who I have met a couple times on trips and has always made me feel at home when I am there.


To all you guys,
THANKS!


Just needed Chris540 to make it complete today....

You guys are too much...really.....

Makes me want that H9 Cap in the corner of my LHS real bad now!!

Chris,

I already told myself that if I see one NIB I'm getting it. If you have the means, do yourself a favor and get one.

Mike McConville really knows his stuff... that's all I have to say. Oh, and Desert Aircraft, too. :-)

I can get one for $700 for LHS....but I just need the $700!

I don't have to worry though...I live in Maine...that plane will be sitting there till I'm 50.

HMMMMMM.

How much is that DA-100??

How is that cap at sequence work? I know you wouldn't know Joe... Maybe Wayne did some IMAC maneuvers with it?

I noticed right after I posted that link you were writing a private email to someone.<g> Coincidence?<g>

$1300 for the DA with mufflers. :-)

Hey now!

That's true though, isn't it? :stupid:

I was flying today in Indiana, and a guy out there had the H9 Cap as well....looked real sweet. Now Wayne tells me it is this awesome.......and there is one setting at the local HS......gee.......
He had a ZDZ 80 on his and it looked like it had tons-o-power.....and it is really nice looking for an ARF.....so......

Anyone want to buy an:

Aeroworks Edge .90
DP Extra 330 L ARC
Funtana
Kangke Sport Cap 232
Ultra Stick w/ G-23
