[RCSE] Pumpkin fly and more

Well, I have to say it was very interesting in Cinci this past weekend. Saturday turned out to be a bust until it was suggested we go to the Air Force museum in Dayton. Wonderful! I haven't been there since 1969. We were like kids in a candy store. Sunday was as others have said very challengi

Re: [RCSE] Cinci Pumpkin Fly: Thanks!

Nice write up Ben! It was great meeting you ( minus the mid air! ). I will post a Zlog of that flight on my blog later on today, when I get home. The mid air cost me about 80ft during the 2 or 3 spins. That was cool to see on the logs. The plane held up after the repair. At times I question

[RCSE] Cinci Pumpkin Fly: Thanks!

A big thanks to all the Cincinnati guys for putting on a great contest on Sunday. CD Steve Siebenaler did the right thing by pushing us to 6 rounds to make up for the rain-out on Saturday -- and I say that even though the sixth round was the undoing of many a good man ;) Going into the last r
