It's alive! It's alive! Newbie video.


Don't bore yourself unless you're a hungry newbie like me.
Initial learning stage. Step one make it move around on the field.
Learning to parallel park :lol:

I will second that. I go through Raliegh on the way to OBX and back a few times a year. Perhaps I should add a stop.....

It's at Umstead Dr. Raleigh 27603
Dorthea Dix Mental Hospital.
There's no place like home.

Raleigh just bought it for a future park. They mow it regularly.
Dog walkers complete with land mines, Drone flyers, Soccer team practice, Model airplanes, Metal detectors
No rules yet, kinda crowded on nice days. Other times I can have it all to myself.

Let me know if you ever go, I could sure use a buggy lesson. Restate the obvious ed.

Well played Ed, well played. I love me some nice Born-Porn shot from a drone no less; outstanding! I see from your quiver listing that you jump from the 5.5m NS3 you had going that day all the way to the 10m. Just so you know, Steffen also makes a 7.0m and 8.5m.:evil:

That is a splendid field! Can't see what is up wind but I'd imagine the huge dense trees along one side would not be a good direction for the wind to have come from. That would make one heck of a wind brake.

Thanks for sharing your video. Nice music too! :thumbup:
