Sunset State Beach Camp & Fly May 6-7th 2023!!!!!!

[Red]

I wanted to give a big thanks out to @Red . I sent a few people his way during the event. They were all having issues getting planes to fly and within a few minutes, each time he had them up flying planes. So thanks Red for taking time out to help everyone!

This hobby is all about sharing, so I'm happy to help. I know how frustrating set up and tuning can be, glad I was able to help.

My wife stole mine!! On the plus side you are her new coffee hero.

I think she wants one with dogs though not planes.

 

[Wayne]

We have too much dog stuff already.. We need more plane stuff!

She is set with "my" mug.

 

[Diceman]

@thenated0g Thank you so much for my mug! Love it! Woot!

 

[thenated0g]

@Diceman i had a bunch of people come up and ask me where to buy those hats.

 

[Diceman]

So I made some BAMF (Bay Area Model Flyers) hats and they seemed to be a big hit.
I am planning on making more, but would like to see how many I need to make. If there are quite a few 12+ I’ll order them to be made, otherwise I’ll make them myself. Let me know if you are interested. I’ll post up in FB and Groups as well and get a count.

 

[Wayne]

I'd like one. I gave mine to one of my guys as he had no hat. He loves it!

 

[JLink125]

I'd buy one!

@Red and Guy helped me with several of my planes and radio programming. I learned a lot! Thanks guys

what the heck is reverse differential lol!
It made my starfire spin very nice.

 

[Diceman]

@Wayne. I didn’t think you did, you handed it off so fast to your employee I thought you didn’t want it.

 

[Wayne]

Nope - Loved it! But like my employees too. Warley is pretty new and didn't know what to bring, he has been flying for maybe 2 weeks here and there. Pretty much self taught as we gave him a pile of junk radio that can't be used with a trainer cord.

 

[thenated0g]

@Wayne We were on the other side of the potluck and didnt hear the Los Banos info you were talking about. Can you share again what you were saying about that event?

 

[Doc J]

For the event @Hawaii Sloper and I wanted to get some gifts for those that we personally interact the most with in the forums and that have done nice things for us in the past so we did a run of engraved insulated coffee mugs. It was pretty hard to narrow it down to 7 people (plus one for raffle) so sorry if you didn't get one. But I did get a few people asking if they could buy one so i am thinking about putting them up for sale with the shirts next year if enough people are interested.

@Diceman i had a bunch of people come up and ask me where to buy those hats.

I probably had at least a dozen people ask me were I got mine also. I would buy one next year also.

Doesn’t get much better!

Welcome to the forum Justin! It was great to meet you and your wife. we had a lot of fun with you guys, @Red, Ryan, Patrick, and Guy.

@Diceman Couple for Alex and I too!

 

[Hawaii Sloper]

Great lift today too.

That plane is awesome. Thanks for let me fly a few laps. That's the first higher performance sailplane I've flown. I can feel my wallet crying already!
