Nice turn out. Plenty of open class pilots making goal and even more would have made it if only they would have gone about 50m further.

Thanks for chiming in Mike. I'm pretty sure this is going to be the same issue with Doug, but he's going to need to work with us so we can get it resolved. IP address from the specific place where he's getting the ban will be best. If I recall, I think Mile's was at work. I did take a look at the ha...

With yesterday behind me, I have everything ready to go. Preparation isn't a problem I have everything ready to go, but I don't have the glider setup. I'm ready to jump in line for the early bird launches but need to see the weather first. at the pilot meeting I get called upon because of the string...

Tough first day for me. Started with learning that I was dead last in the launch order. Ok, I tell myself, I'll just stay in the shade until it's time to go. That part worked out well and I got in the launch line right behind Phill Bloom. This is where it really stated to go bad. On launch I break a...

Our first task in the Santa Cruz Flats Race. Expected top of lift 11k @ 2pm. I think that is over called a bit. Course is 108 mile triangle, first to the east then south and back into the wind. I'm on the very bottom of the launch order along with Phill Bloom, Alex Cuddy, and Greg Kendall. At least ...

Well, we have a good number of pilots going to the Santa Cruz Flats Race in Casa Grande Arizona this year, comp starts on September 11th and runs through September 17th. So far on the ticket we have: Kevin Kernohan (fresh from the Fort Funston race), sporting a new harness (Tenax 4), a new Moyes RX5...

Looks like they are now

Just to be clear, this happened in Sylmar, but NOT at the flight park. I like the idea of turning off the outlets with the exception of the socket that Russ is plugged into. It's likely easy enough to do. Looks like home owners insurance will cover the items plus the cost of replacements. They said ...

Missing Harness Woody Valley, with 3040 and my icom radio, parachute of course too.

Also stolen two of my best DLG's

If anyone sees anything around Sylmar, get some info so we can get these suckers.

Looks like my Arizona trip/comp just got cancelled

Yep, kept everyone safe, but provided a challenging task for those that were willing to give it a go. Nice job "hanging" in there.

Thanks for the video too!

One of the more interesting lessons learned yesterday, and a mistake that will not likely get repeated by the unnamed pilot is situational awareness as to where you are in or outside of the start cylinder. Take this screen shot as an example from the pilots track, pilot just inside the start cylinde...

Wasn't working remotely for a day after the process stalled or crashed. Fixed. Looks like our wiper has stopped working, noticed that on Friday when it was raining. I'll see what the manufacturer recommends. Also the account that allows for remote viewing only has been extended to anytime 24/7. I'm ...

You need to set the recording interval to 2 sec in the flight memory settings. That will give you nice smooth tracks but only a 9hr max flight time.
