What's Going On at Your Flying Patch?

This October has been a true "Golden October"! We had more than two weeks of sunny, WARM weather, marred only a tiny bit by winds that were too high for Free Flight at my field. No matter... I flew rc, finally getting my Roehn Gleiter into the air (a model based on the Playboy Senior) that was marketed in Germany by ARKAI Models. Turns out to be a fantastic flyer and much more maneuverable than I anticipated needing less than 3mm stick movement.
After mixing in 40% expo on rudder and 50% on elevator, it was a pussycat. 56" span and about 700 grams heavy.
It can be seen in the middle of the lineup. More than 25 flyers/day throughout the two weeks.
