My Weekend.....just a tease.....

[Rifleman]

Here are two from my weekend....first Sunday, then Monday.....





There is more of each day, but I only wanted to see if there was any interest first.....I think I may hog too much space on here, without realizing.....

Nice one Ken. R/C floatplanes. Something I always wanted to have a go at but never got the chance. Never seen one either as there's not too many places around here for that sort of thing. This might sound silly with the English Channel on my doorstep but there it is. I think some of the guys might have tried it in the old days when the tide was out but that was before the bus fares went up. Finding somewhere to fly ordinary land models is difficult enough these days.

I would like to see more. Post all you want as far as I'm concerned.  ;)

[Craig.]

please post more, you live in such a beautiful part of the world, its always great to see pics from there

Post away!

I love R/C floaters...very cool, and you don't see enough of 'em.

[Saitek]

Yeah do post more. Anything to do with planes is interesting. I've always be fascinated by those models.
The're really great.

Wow, I could get into RC planes but I can't stand the thought of accidentally flying it outside of my RC range and watching hundreds of dollars crash or fly away into the horizon!

Check back later....I have just prepared the images but have to go to work.....will upload when I come home...


Strange how nobody wants to see my day at the beach from Monday......we went through the mountains to the Pacific coast and saw some surfing ...........

Nither have I. I'm told that some of the guys at the flying club use floats to fly off the snow in winter. Skis can sometimes get stuck so that's why they use floats instead.

That's very rare. Happened at my flying club. Some guy's plane actually wound up in the United States! Actually he crashed it into the small stream behind the club's field and the plane floated out into Lake Ontario.  ;D Actually did wind up in the US.
Most radios have a range of over a mile. As long as you keep it in sight, your fine.

If your interested in R/C flying Meyekul, talk to me or Rifleman. There are a few other R/C pilots here as well.
