Woohoo lots of fun. Just got back to Dayton and will head over again tomorrow.

VPP is IN this year. It seems like EVERYONE has something that can dance on the nose. I saw at least half a dozen really nice vpp rigs and they were being thrown around all day. Pics and VIDEO coming.

Foamys are getting smaller too. Check out the new bipe from horizon! The 4 Site. I think that I'll definitely be getting one- Plus I was promised a flight tomorrow. (dont forget Seth!)

This thing is sweet! All out freestyle and it's not fast and touchy like other micro 3d planes. Seth was demonstrating hands off harriers around the gym at a walking pace. It uses the same electronics as the helis plus linear servos for ailerons.

Ok, I stayed up too late posting all these last night and pulled a Seth and slept in this morning!
Two videos before I head back.

RJ didn't believe us that the net will eat your plane:


The VTOL huckin'. These are FUN. Thanks for the test flight Frank! I didn't catch the name of it but they are about $35. Great plane if you're looking for something different to fly. Also extremely stable. You can release the transmitter and because they are so "tail" heavy it will hover around on its own until you start flying again. Just dont cut the power!!!!
