Our Fourth Winter Indoor Fun Fly will be another stand alone event (no regular meeting), just 2-1/2 hours of flying fun in the large gym at Francis Howell’s Saeger Middle School in Cottleville, MO. More details below…
The Indoor Fun Fly will once again be in the Large Gym and Francis Howell Saeger Middle School. The video below provides good detail of where to be. We have the facility from 6:30pm until 9pm.
We’ve had generally open flying in the past, with an occasional UMX Vapor pylon race breaking out.. Feel free to champion any events that you think could enhance our time in this large space. We ask that you be conscientious of any craft that have props/blades that could threaten a hazard. We are all in close proximity and a 5″ racing drone or 700 heli would make many nervous. Similarly, feel free to set up in the hallway outside the gym if you are intolerant of being buzzed by an occasionally wayward piloted craft…it happens sometimes, just don’t get upset by it.
The craft that seem to do best are relatively small slow flying planes, small drones and smaller helicopters. Below is a video compilation of some of past happenings. You can use it to get a feel for how much space is available and the types of craft that tend to be more successful.
This event is ‘free’, however, it has cost the club about $100 so we are taking donations at the event to offset. Also, as is customary, we’ll gather at a nearby local establishment to swap tales and quinch thirsts immediately after the event. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
