Some of you know that I'm at this event in Austria. My pics from the first day can be found at: https://www.flickr.com/photos/182968716@N05/albums/72177720309260143

Was a bit quiet but supposed to pick up at the weekend. Sky was a bit grey and looking in to the sun so photos not the best

PS Aero , RC Composites and a couple of others demonstrating products and taking orders, all out of my price range. Freakware are on site with a small selection of stuff.
The Electro Kult flies beautifully and that one belongs to the German, Gunther, in the room next to me. It won't find in my luggage though :(

The ASK18 in the pics had a long land out and some fuselage damage from hitting a rock

It was bloody cold today, I was layered up and considering putting my waterproof on as well. Forecast for weekend is hot and sunny
