Super gnarlly air up there today, but Dennis was ON IT!!! I couldn't even FLY the air he was dealing with, but he was able to put together enough laps with his Exxtreme 2M to clock a bunch of 270's and a 287!!! Increadible flying. I thought for sure it was going into the hill a bunch of times, but Dennis was able to pull it out and land it safe.

Another CAP bro got a PB of 233 - Congrats Dominic!!! Flying a bagged-wing home-brew called the Infinity.

While you guys were at "3 rocks" we were DSing the back side of Glider Hill. No records, Just me and the Bluto and Bob with a taped together Destiny proving that it can be done. Excellent energy gust to 40mph BRRRR

Congrats!

I always envy you and your perfect environment for DS.
In Korea the wind over 12m/s rarely blow all the year round.
I want to live there... :D

Had to swap out a servo in the Supertron and headed up late. Got to the parking area fine and headed up. Freaking poaching gone bad, kicked out before I got to the top... Bummer man. :mad: Called the guys and everyone made it out without being seen. :D

That sucks! It's only a matter of time before that happens at Windmills.

BTW, I'm pretty sure the Infinity is a hollow molded plane. Those molds have put out some great, fast, planes in the past so watch out for it as Dom dials in his layups and his thumbs develope further!

2.5m Kami #2 is on it's way, popped the wings last night. Hopefully this one will go way past the 256 on the last one. Just not enough hours in the day.
