The Cloudbusters held their November Indoor contest yesterday so I drove the 135 miles (2+ hours) one way to go have four hours of fun. (For those of you that complain about no where local to fly, I think this is the norm – you have to go where the flying IS, even if it is far away.)<\/p>\n

The day presented a good amount of frustration.\u00a0 I couldn’t get my NoCal Tailwind to fly (I think I over-propped it) and I broke both struts on it.\u00a0 I got my breand-new Sky Box II Embryo out and promptly got it stuck.\u00a0 I called the building management to help get it down – “we normally do that once a week – and not while the room is scheduled\/occupied”.\u00a0 See you later, Sky Box.<\/p>\n

My Phantom Flash needs a replacement.\u00a0 It is old and cantankerous.\u00a0 Torque takes it left on takeoff, but it figure-eights to the right.\u00a0 It got stuck on the side of the building.\u00a0 Fortunately, I could reach it with my 35-foot pole.\u00a0 It only got stuck THREE MORE TIMES on the way down from that retrieval.<\/p>\n

I did win a couple events, and I put a 16″ loop of rubber in my Peanut Stallion and had a good flight.\u00a0 It will be a great flight when I get the zoomies tamed.\u00a0 Here’s a video:<\/p>\n
