Kyna,
Thanks for letting us know. We are looking forward to seeing everyone and we are very excited about the 700N flying in public for the first time in Huntsville.
As you know our event is about having fun at your own pace, meeting old friends and making new friends.
See you next week.

Can't wait, Huntsville was the very first Fun-Fly that I ever attended. We were at the RC Hobby Barn picking up a gyro 3 years ago and they mentioned the event to me, so I drove down to check it out. WOW is all I can say....thus the hook was set!

You're going to have a blast!
Expect 75+ pilots and a large number other people. Saturday is the best day to show up. Sunday morning is a great time to get out and do some flying yourself. Since you live in Huntsville, spend as much time as you can! You can pick up a ton of information and help while there.

If you're going to go for just one day, make it Sat.
As far as the number of people, I think it was mentioned that there has usually been 60 or so registered pilots. But, it actually looks (to me anyhow) that there will be a good number more pilots than in previous years.

Youll be blown away by the flying. Bring a chair and some sunscreen, and sit down and watch the flying ;)
Stripping Helis down as I speak, and getting all packed! See everyone next weekend, and get there safley:fly

i plan on asking for lots of advice while i'm there. Ive only been able to talk to a couple of guys at hobbytown usa here in huntsville.
I have no clue on what kind of heli to get, maybe something will catch my eye this weekend!

Get a Stratus!
...Just kidding. Just go get any decent 450 that you feel comfortable with fixing when needs be (i.e. you can gets parts for it, they're decently priced, maybe your LHS even stocks the parts). :thumbup:
