    Default model flyin

    hi guys, went to the southeastern modelers flyin in loris sc, Saturday put on by some friends of mine. the grass strip is 750' and is in great shape but the approach is a little tite. had a great time watching some really good r/c pilots put on a show. talked to a lot of guys about building full scale. these guys take a lot of pride in building there models so I know they would build a nice full scale. here are some pic's of the landing and takeoff. hope to have some video soon.

    Jimmy,
    What a great looking plane. I love the approach photo coming thru the trees! Yes, you must add a video.

    Beautiful Strip...750'? That's 3x's the distance even necessary for these rockets! Great photos and I agree...video would be cool!

    That is very cool! I fly R/C at my place. I just bought a barn find, see post, and I can't wait to bring her home. I've got 1800 x 100 feet of grass. Anyone need some tractor time? I'm still mowing the #$%^& grass!!!
