    We thought it would be a quiet day of RC plane action but the dirt bikes and gokarts arrived and it got noisy again. A small turnout this weekend and not much really happened but join us for some lighthearted banter and flying at the Tokoroa Adrenaline Park in New Zealand on a late winter's Sunday in August 2023.

    I cheered out loud seeing Ron drive himself to the field.
    As for Bill not liking the camera, how am I ever going to be as good a pilot as Bill if you don't show everything he does?

    Love seeing the misfits together.
    Always a good day when I see Ron arrive. (and.... Bill too)
    Bill is just like me... I hate cameras too. but he makes me laugh when he grumbles at the camera.
    On a side note. I almost always enjoy your pick for soundtracks,
    I see naysayers on all the other channels too.
    there is a button that turns that off...
    Even when I don't like the music.(I don't say anything)
    I really have more to worry about than distasteful music.
    Thanks Bruce another excellent video.

      Thanks for the kind words. Yes, music is one of those times that you can't please all the people so there's no point in trying to do that -- because then you end up pleasing nobody. I try to use a range of music so that I can offend everyone to an equal degree :-)

    You should tell Bill to upgrade that FS-i10 to the Paladin. The internal antennas are fantastic. No antenna to worry about. I get crazy range with mine on the 100mw module. AFHDS3 gives you all the benefits of ELRS without the headaches. The inductive charging stand is also a nice feature.

    Just out of curiosity - how many operational planes does Bill have? He's always bringing something new...

      Yes, they are stars. You can tell that when you look behind the scenes. Bill's appearance fee goes up every week and Ron won't turn up unless there's a bowl filled with only green M&Ms. Neil is making so much from his fees that he can afford a new Tesla Modely Y "performance". Meanwhile, I survive on whatever scraps of food I can find under the sofa cushions. (hahaha).
