The June “Brooks” will be on the 22nd – 26th this year in Snohomish Washington.
We looked at every field possible in Oregon and could not find a suitable location on short notice.
The Snohomish field has an awsome layout and we always have a great time there.
Thanks to the Seattle guys for saving our butts and letting us use their field.
This is the last pitch gauge you will ever need brought to us by Bartlett Enterprises, Inc. It works with flybar or flybarless helicopter and works well it does. This really is a must have for those of you with flybarless setups. The pitch guage is made to use with your iphone, ipod touch and android phones as well as a digtal angle meter. This pitch gauge works on every Align helicopter 450 up to the 700 and also works on several other manufacturers. These are currently sold through Tammies Hobbies so call them or visit Tammieshobbies.com to get yours
Now back at home and caught up on sleep I can reflect on last weekends event. The weather this year cut into our flying time with gusty winds and a lighting storm on Friday night. The weather didn’t keep us from having a good time most of the guys huddled under tents or retired to their RVs to tell stories about their past adventures. This year Team Synergy made a big showing with a booth and everywhere I looked their where those blue Synergy shirts. Othello has been one of my favorite Fun Flys of the year and I am looking forward to next years event.
