Thanks to everyone who came out this morning, it was a lovely sunny morning but wind was fierce, which made it a battle, course should have been tighter into treeline to get more shelter, so we learned again for next time.

My tally for the day was 33 race starts, 59 laps completed, and 13 crashes, I broke 6 props (total cost £2.05) and resoldered one motor wire with my cheapo FPV250 hobbyking quad, rcx1804 motors, KK2.1, fatshark FPV gear and mobius recording camera which ran like a champ all morning.

Thanks to James Jab1a for coming over and bringing the start line airgate and first corner pylon, which are from www.hoverspeedrc.co.uk.

Luke was unbeatable with his 4S 6x45 rocketship, but of the people running 3S/5x3 which is our planned spec I won my fair share of races, so you can race on a budget and still be competitive.

If anyone is really keen, all my flight footage with original audio is up here youtube.com/watch?v=MnRCUHS51Ak
