Had our first quick meeting this morning, before i had to go sort out things at home.
Charging up now, for an afternoon of flying.
Tony flew the quad for a couple of batteries. Easy going, but no worries. Flew really well.
Beach was beautiful. Blue sky and zero wind.
We'll get some picture this afternoon.

Hey guys, thanks for all the comments, can't log on much as mobile data is so expensive... Lee has gave you the story so far, but since then we've done more flying. I'll let him fill you in on the details....

Weather is perfect here at the moment

This is the view from our camper window.
