We had to pry is dead fuse out of his hands, he was going to repair it, but desided best he put her down. No doubt he could have repaired it, but after putting his first IMAC contest under his belt he may be looking for the Extra as a replacement. Have you ever seen such a sad face?

Donnie, did you get the new Power Box Fuel gauge??!!!

Hey all!

Joe Nall is fast closing on us! Donnie, AeroLou, myself and the gang are going to be there all week. Friday night I would like to do an FFAA Joe Nall Cook-out at our camp site! So make sure you guys hook-up with us if you guys are coming up!

Also, I would like to plan a FFAA get together on June 7th, Saturday, two weekends before Triple Creek 3D Fly-In (TC3D! June 21-22). I would like to have an FFAA meeting as well to discuss future plans. Guys, Let me know if June 7th is a good day for this.

Here is a video of my 110" Yak 54 at Rocket City RC Club, in Orlando, from last weekend.

Happy Skies and God Bless!
