Flying at CVRCF

This picture is the Cowlitz Valley Radio Control Flyers field from the South.  Right after our Noon meeting, I put the quad up with the GoPro taking a picture every 2 seconds, so I had lots to choose from.
I managed to get a picture of Mike's plane flying by during this flight.
This is Mike's plane, he bought it from me at the tailgate swap meet last month.  I had two, one that I had never built, so I sold it.  Mike put a better motor in it and it goes like crazy.  I burned the motor in mine up last week trying a bigger battery, so I am going to put the same type motor Mike has into mine.
Today was my war bird day, I took a bunch of WWII vintage models all of which have retractable landing gear.  It is lots of fun watching them go up and then making passes, the planes look a lot more real with the wheels up.  I flew until about 5, then headed home, I made a quick stop for gas, pop and dinner.  I spent the evening going through the 600 pictures I took today and watching the football games I recorded.
