Default Place to fly electrics at Outer Banks

Suitcase and my family will be at Kill Devil Hills,NC this week and we were looking for a place to fly some 3D electrics while we are here. Anybody got any ideas?

You could do some great slope soaring at Jockey's Ridge. There's usually a constant breeze out there on the Banks, I don't know how much you like flying in the wind.

There are some dunes along the main highway in kill devils hill, where they do a lot of kit flying and hang gliding. Or you could run up to Corola Public access and fly on the beach. The thing is how good you are at flying in the wind. Its always windy there.

Thanks for the help. The way the wind has blown this spring we have gotten use to it. But the little profiles and foamies we brought like 5 to 6 mph max. If we get to fly it will be early morning or late evening. Its raining this morning.

We found a great place to fly. Right behind the Wright Brothers Memorial is The First Flight Elementary school. They had several soccer fields and we have had an afternoon with almost no wind.
