Just a reminder that the Riverside, Ca contest will take place the 16 and 17 April 2011, hope to see you there.
Check the Dist 7,web site for more info.

It was a very pretty day at the field today. The grass is green, the dirt road was not dusty due to the rains, the mountains were snow capped and the sky was great !!! I'll be out there again tomorrow. I'm looking forward to next weekend.

Steve

I don't see any info on the D7 site for the Riverside contest, just Hemet.

What is the web link to the field's site? I need to make hotel reservations and I don't even know where the field is :-)

Here is the Riverside Flyer with info.

Hi Jarvis. Are you going out to practice on Sunday and where?
If so what time and any body else going to be there? Hoss Allen.

By the way
There's a Holiday Inn Express right at the 215 fwy 4th St exit. That's probably the best and closest place to stay. Not sure why the flier didn't mention it.

Hey Hoss
Yes we will be out at Riverside on Sunday, at Noon, Myself, Bill Sheets,Bill Wallace, Tak,Lynn and Steve K, also I think that Steve Hannah will be there also.
Hey Steve, there was not a flyer made for the contest, and Lynn will be helping at Riverside, an he had a old one from 2006, so I double checked the hotel
that where listed, forgot about the Holiday Inn Express off of the 215 and 4th in Perris, is that the one across from Denny's, if so you are right.
It is the closest, you can see the field from the hotel, Thanks Steve

crap... going to a wedding!!

Just an Update
The Best Western Lake Perris Inn, is now the Holiday Inn Express. If you call, you can get single bed for $81.99 plus tax, or 2 beds for $91.99 plus tax.
Just let them know, you are coming for the RC airplane contest.

HEY,

So how did everyone end up?? I had fun there yesterday.. I wanted to say thanks to everyone for answering all the questions i had!!

Just returned from the Riverside pattern contest, with 22 pilots, good weather in the high 80's to low 90's, and a light breeze down the runway. We were able to get in 6 rounds
and pass out award by 2:00pm. I like to thank the the Riverside Radio Control Club, for hosting the contest, an allowing us to use there flying field. Also thanks to those pilots
that came down from Northern California, and Arizona. Also to those whom, put the contest together, Dale for cutting the grass, Larry and Jeff for scoring, and Bill and Lynn for CDing thanks guys. Here are the results.

Hey Jarvis, What's the word one the monolog? Did you find out what happened and why?, and what does Alex think about what caused the wing failure? Are they willing to replace the kit?

HEY CHRIS !!!!!
You need to delete, Your last posting and call Me!!! on Monday

Cool. Thx for the update Jarvis. Looks like it was fun! Wish I could have been there!

Surprised to see Matt flying the Axiome over a De Ja Vu! But whatever works for him! And the Axiome sure does!

Hey Chris
Jim, was flying the Axiome, E-power, now "Hell is going to freeze Over", an he looked good flying it, Matt was flying the DeJa Vue, in the pictures.
It was a Kit version with Mod's. The Riverside contest was fun and Hott!!!, Wish you could have can down, it would have been nice to see you and Tony
go at it, He was flying pretty good with the Benner dual drive unit. But Greg and Jon,was keeping Tony on his toe's.

I see an old pic from last year's Phoenix contest in there......LOL

Holy crap! Jim flying E? No fricken way! You can't be serious! So that's Matt's De Ja Vu in the pic? Must be a new one cuz the one he had at Arvin was different colors. I like this one better! Very nice!

I didn't look that close at it but noticed it was painted with no decals. I assumed it was Jim's and therefore Matt was flying the Axiome. Cool. I bet he's diggin it now he's got some time on it! Sweet looking ride!

C

I wish I could have been there.. but somehow my daughter turning 6 years old took priority. I can't seem to convince my wife how important model airplanes are just yet!

Actually, the model Matt was flying was a new model he built over the winter using a DejA-Vu fuse with entirely new wings, stabs and modifications to the fin and canalizer. Other then that it was stock!

Jim was flying the Axiome well. But I really want him to bring out an old Deception or his Compensator. Then we can have some fun!
