We had a great time at the Broken Arrow CL stunt and Scale contest in St Louis on Sept 20-21. The weather forecast had wind and rain but the rain never showed but it did get gusty on mid-day Sunday.

Great Photos Fred. Thanks for thinking of us!

The nifty battery holder looks very much like the one Bob ("The Great") Hunt published several years ago!

Seems I saw a photo of someone flying with the handle in his teeth? Sure would like to see a video of that.
