Learning in Nassau County, Long Island
Can anyone recommend any good fields, parks that are RC friendly in Nassua County. Just picked up a Slo V and want to start flying. Most of the areas nearest to me seem to be a bit crowded all the time.
Thanks
Thanks

RE: Learning in Nassau County, Long Island
Thanks for the info Ken. Not sure I am ready to commit to a club yet. Don't really know if I'll stick witht the hobby or not. Was hoping a fellow LI'er knew some good places where flying a slo park flyer would be OK.
Thanks again,
Steve

RE: Learning in Nassau County, Long Island
Steve,
A club is the best way to go as Ken says. You can always go to a meeting and see what some of the other members think.
You could also try asking around at one of the local Hobby shops. They could probably hook you up too.
Plenty of open spaces during the week for a park flier but as you know, it's pretty crowded on the weekends.
