TREASURE COAST PHANTOM'S SWARM 2014
Anybody interested? Trying to get some folks together and have some fun flying and talking Phantom ... date is Sunday August 3rd starting at 6am until people run out of batteries or get sick of eachother :lol:
Place... Allapattah Flats K8 (shows up on Google maps search) Port St. Lucie Florida
West end of NW Milestone Place
X MARKS THE SPOT
Super place to fly and stretch out your quad without any limits... no trees... no wires... no problems
We've already got some regulars and there are fixed wing flyers who show up around 7:30am ... they get along with the quad flyers really well and don't mind showing off for the V+ video cameras.
Might post this on RC Groups and turn it into a quad thing instead of just a Phantom thing.
I will keep bumping this thread for visibility so any pilots nearby will see it if possible...
Hope to see a few fellow flyers and share stories and mods ... and bring your other toys!!! (miles of asphalt for wheeled rc vehicles and several ponds for boaters)
SEE YOU THERE!!!

QUESTIONS
Why so early?
early start time is set for optimum wind conditions... we know the Phantom can handle windy days but there ain't nuthin like flying out in wide open spaces in super calm conditions... and the views ... sunrise at Milestone Place is a different version of awesome every day
Should we make it just one day? Maybe more guys together at the same time if we just pick one and stick with it?
if we do that ... I'm thinking Sunday.... that's when the fixed wing guys come out and it adds to the fun having all that hardware in the air
I'll wait and see if this develops into anything and make adjustments based on thread comments... (if this gets going at all... we'll see)
LOOKS LIKE SATURDAY IS OUT ... NOBODY REALLY RESPONDED FOR THAT DAY SO MIGHT AS WELL CALL IT A WRAP AND FOCUS ON SUNDAY ... SEE YOU THERE!!!
