    Planning to be there Saturday. Also, it looks like the sign up has expired on eventbrite.

    Fixed, I think?
    In Climax everybody smiles, even the ones with wet pants.

    Update:

    On Friday 8/18 at Athens waterside park (on the Hudson, 5 miles from the moat).

    South Side Johnny (no not Johnny Adams) and the Asbury Jukes are giving a FREE concert at 7 PM.


    There will be battling on Friday so we may have some patching to do, but for those that don't they may go.

    I had fun. The rest I can't speak for, but they generally have issues signing up or show up last minute and just shrug.

    No doubt. You going to get rid of that old radio gear soon? It seems very prone to 'glitching'. ;)

    It was a good time as always. The sides were 5 on 4 for Saturday, 4 on 4 Sunday. I have videos of both sorties Saturday 'morning' that I will post in the coming week or so.

    I think that I will be building a smaller 'gnat' killer to better match up with the northeast horde of mini axis ships for next year

    Spektrum DX6 is rather old and not getting better, I think the glitch was trembling hands and fingers.
