Epic First Session of the season


Alright guys our club is headed out to the fields in about an hour. winds are constant at 20kts, no gusts recorded :singing: Its the first session of the season and I'm super stoked!!

We have the ContourHD, tripod HD, tripod standard Def, and our schools newspaper and TV station is coming out to video and record.

Weeeeellllll we had an epic fail lol. We got out there and the wind ended up being from the North. Our field is on the south side of town and to the north is a row of houses that create hellish turbulence. We usually dread days northerly wind days because of it.

Sometimes we can manage, but today was probably the most turbulent wind I have EVER flown in. We did get the interview done but not anything extreme included I don't think.

IM SO DISSAPOINTED...
