Welcome! Where do you fly in GB? I'm on the North side and fly out at the Pulaski airport. I mostly fly my H9 260 w/DA 50. I also plan to join the club this year so I have the option of flying at thier field if time permits, long drive for me.

Ddin't know there's one in Hilbert but just up the road there is one near Brillion that I have been to. Think they call it Calumet flyers.

I have been to the Calumet field. It's nice, from my understanding they did some work on it last year. It is suppose to be twice as big as it was. If it wasn't such a long drive I would visit more often.

Hi, I am glad I am not the only one suffering from cabin fever. It's nice to meet all of you. I am a member of the Shawano R/C Flying Club. I used to fly full scale at Pulaski and at that time, I can remember the model planes having to give up the runway for me when I was using the grass north/south runway. I guess I didn't know they still had a club there. I have also been to the Calumet Flyers Club Field and is also referfed to as the Hilbert field. They made some nice changes to their runway and it should be in fine shape this spring.
