We hit a couple of garage sales this morning before heading for Toledo to fly. We followed one set of "Moving Sale" signs way back in the hills East of Castle Rock. The driveway looked so steep that I put the Blaze into 4 wheel drive. When we saw the place, Vera was ready to head home, but the guy came out so we felt obligated to stop. After quick look around, Vera did not find anything she couldn't live without, so we headed home. I took my fathers day present, a Pogo, a pylon racer out for it's test flight. A few minor adjustments and it was flying great! It is supposed to hit 115 Mph with a racing set up in it, I guess it is time for Vera to learn how to use the radar gun.
I also flew the Slow Stick today, you can see that part of the name comes from the fuselage, a square carbon fiber stick. It was also the first time out to the field for my Cobra helicopter since I put the new servo paddles on. They turned it into a different helicopter, it is much more stable now! Boy was it sultry at the field, Toledo Tel showed a high of 88.8 degrees today.
