I hear you on the FL mosquitos. Here in Minnesota, they are our state bird, and Mother Nature contracts Boeing for their construction. In any event, my wife jokingly calls my setup the "Bat Cave." Ground level drive out basement under entire house, (about 35x54) with 12 ft ceiling and 12x12 overhead garage door. I back the entire rig, Van and 14ft Trailer into the cave, close the door, and hook the trailer up to shore power for charging. When I want to go to the field, I just press the button on the garage door opener, and drive the whole rig out.... charged and ready to go. My wife even supports my hobby and goes to flying events with me! What a deal, huh?

"Atomic batteries to power....Turbines to speed....Ready to move out!"
