I should be able to make this one. I will see if I can bring some Kyosho stuff.

[BarracudaHockey]

Erich, bring a UAV! :D


Y'all please pre-register http://www.jaxrc.com/events so we know how much food to get.

[ErichF]

I wish it were that easy, man...FAA and something about Government Property... :(

It would be really cool if I could bring out the Electric Observer!

[Mike Fortin]

Still looking forward to this one!:thumbup:

[BarracudaHockey]

Looks like fall in Florida is going to be good for heli flying!

Jax in October
Mulberry in November
and Orlando in December

I cant wait.

Oh and about the pre-registration..........I'm going to have a pilots prize thats drawn ONLY from pre-registered pilots. I'm also working on getting a prize that will be drawn from only those pilots that bring AND fly a scale helicopter.

[BarracudaHockey]

Pre-registration prize is a 50 dollar gift certificate from Ron's Heliproz South. Thanks Ron!

So what's the best hotel to get a room in, that's not a crack house?

I'm off today I'll call them and see if I can get a deal.

[Mike Fortin]

Plenty of hotels in the area, Holiday Inn is actually just down the street from the field (5 Mins).

There are several others just a few exits up that are a bit cheaper, just depends on what your looking for.

[BarracudaHockey]

Any of these are within 15 minutes of the field

But the Holliday Inn Express is practically at the end of our driveway.

[ErichF]

HIE it is, then....I have an account with them as it is.

See ya soon,

[ErichF]

I went with the Best Western at the airport, $85 a night. See ya then,

[BarracudaHockey]

RREmodels kicked in a Trex 500 kit for the prize pool!

Thanks Bobby!!

[BarracudaHockey]

You don't want to stay here around Haloween, trust me on this. My wife gets a bit carried away with the decorating.

I'll be the first to vote AGAINST staying at Andy's house if THIS (http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h100/ghostessdeanna/Dumping%20ground/DSC01634-2.jpg) is any indication of what goes on :badair:

[BarracudaHockey]

The web site now accepts pre-registration as well as payment. Thanks Scott!

Also I misunderstood the RREModels donation, it will be a 500 size heli kit, he didn't specify a Trex.

[BigVanVader]

I will be staying at Casa Del Robert (aka My Bro) as always......looking forward to this event and already aquiring stuff to nightfly the G5.:YeaBaby:

[BarracudaHockey]

Great Planes sent us a RTF coaxial.

We might see about doing a special drawing for the kids or something like that with it.

[Nate Quan]

Look forward to making this event. See you there
