Westside R/C Flyers

My September flight is done. Yesterday went to the field to cut some grass and took my electric cub with one battery. Made a couple of circuits, a couple of landings, all good. I should have brought more batteries but was pressed for time. Only three more months to go!

Finally got my August flight in. Tried at the beginning of the month and had a case of checking the control throws before take off error. They moved, just in the wrong direction. :oops: Once I repaired the plane, I had to wait until my eyes were healed enough after cataract surgery to make another a...

July is done. Managed to get two flights in the evening of the 1st after doing some cleanup on the field. It sure feels good to get some stick time
in. Now if we could just get the rain to give us a break. I am ready for the normal Oklahoma hot dry stretch to begin. On to August now.

It took a while but finally got the June flight taken care of. Went to the field Tuesday night to work on the old mower and took a plane along just in case. Got the mower working again then helped Rob get the field and parking lot knocked down. Thanks Rob. Made one flight with the Tiny Toni as the s...

Yesterday we had our spring work party at the field. With all of the rain the grass was a little high. This was the first time the field has been dry enough to cut all of it and there are still some soft spots. We not only got the grass cut but we removed the broken flight station and cleaned all of...

Well to state the obvious, the field is wet. Went out this evening to see how it was draining. On Wednesday I checked on it and the north half was under water and the field east of the runway was flooded from the field to route 4. The water was not standing on the field today, it was yesterday, but ...

Made one flight today to take care of May. Went to see how the field was draining and took along the racer just in case. Found Rob and Vu out getting some flights in. Field is still pretty wet but found a section dry enough to land on. Only did one because I didn't want to risk landing a foam and pa...

April's flight in done. Went out this evening to finish cutting the pits, change the locks for the new year and managed to squeeze in a couple of flights. The racer is flying great and ready to start turning some laps. 8-) Get your planes ready. Steven and Vu were out getting some stick time in. Vu ...

The club is having a Swap Meet on April 26th. See the attached flyer for details.

1st day of March and a nice day of flying. Six members made it out with five getting their March flights in. It was a little breezy at times, but not too hateful. Made a few flights with the gasser and ran the racer a couple of laps against Big D. A little slow going into the wind but a good time. R...
