Nice! Thank you!

 

[Diceman]

Ok, Placing order for Camp n Fly Shirts/Zipper Hoodies!

 

[Diceman]

Those of you that have not paid, I will be selling to others who wanted one and forgot or did not order. FYI, so get yours paid up!

 

[Diceman]

No more shirt / hoodie orders, they have been ordered!

It is now closed.

 

[Wayne]

Ok - start showing us the planes you are bring to Sunset.

We will have a few of these, think the count is at 15 birds now:

Was able to maiden mine in very light lift this last weekend. Seemed to fly well, and looks great in the air!

Here is another 3D printed plane I'll be bringing. The Roughgen.

I was able to fly it this last weekend in cruddy conditions. Looking forward to seeing how she flies in clean lift. Need to add some stripes or something. Think I will have 5 3D printed planes this year. LOL They will be a pain to transport as most of them are stupid fragile.

Ninja Clone will be my "vintage" plane this year:

My Strombird will be my composite (love that plane). And probably a Gremlin and my 60" Machii. Mega SST, and maybe my f-SST flying wings. If I am able to do a rebuild, I might be able to get my old Slope Monkey back into the air. Oh yeah, and got to bring my prototype Mini Q!! If I have room then I can add the Slow Stick glider, Zulu and Speedy. Dang the pile keeps growing. Oh crud, I HAVE to bring the Sera Sailing too! I have some work to do!

I got the 48" Birdworks Zipper from your 'pile' picture. It's the one with diagonal red stripe, next to the box. Unfortunately its a project for 2023 Sunset...

 

[thenated0g]

@gp49 i really enjoyed the slow mornings with the aloft crew last year finishing up builds.

 

[Wayne]

Yeah, you might be able to get the Zipper running this year at the event!

 

[gp49]

Yeah, you might be able to get the Zipper running this year at the event!

To do it right I would have to glass the fuse/wing saddle, but have a few project to finish before I can start the reconstruction of the saddle area. ONLY 4 WEEKENDS LEFT !

@Wayne @thenated0g here is something inexpensive for the early mornings for Sunset! Found on craigs list in your neck of the woods.... https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/avo/d/rohnert-park-standard-class-v-sail-plane/7465070631.html Its a Aquila with a single stick radio!!!

Standard Class R/V Sail Plane - aviation - by owner - airplane...

Airtronics sail plane. New batteries; Ready to fly!

[Wayne]

Hmm, I always liked the Aquilla. Price is right, location not horrible.. Hmm.

 

[Wayne]

email sent.. I love that radio, looks like a Heathkit.

 

[gp49]

@Wayne the radio is what I noticed FIRST! We have both, standard Aquila and the Grande. Both are great fliers, as you know. Used to fly them on high starts. Now it's slope only.

Here are a couple of pictures of our standard to wet your appetite and the Grande flying at Coyote by 'little' Alex. R/S was converted over to DSM2/DSMX by Jay Mendoza...

 

[Wayne]

I'll be stopping by the place tomorrow to pick it up.
