North Island first PSS Fest

psslogo01

 

Attention all

Our first North Island PSS Fest is under way.

The actual date is still begin planed. the venue is Raglan for a weekend of fun flying and competition.

The month is MARCH

There will be prizes for pilots pick, for static and flying.

If you have ever seen the Carbon art PSS Masters,(if you have not seen it I have the DVD for those that are interested) then this is our NZ version, we have people as far as Wellington who will be attending.

PSS is a slopie of a power aircraft, made from any materials, or build from a kit or what ever.

This should prove to be a great weekend.

Staying at Raglan caravan park, car pooling is the way to go for a road trip.

So put your thinking caps on for a PSS project and if you need a hand in design or cutting foam, just give me a call.

My Dash 8 that is currently under construction is for this event, and maybe even a kittyhawk or P40.

Welcome to AMF

 This is the Home of Ashhurst RC Fliers.

Please feel free to browse the links provided by club members and sponsors to learn more of our sport, you may be interested in joining our hobby.  To learn more login to view all our sections and reviews.

If you are interested in learning more with out going to the expense of buying a plane, helicopter and radio gear, get in contact with us because we are more than happy to share our knowledge and experiences, and maybe a bunch of our time to show you how it all works and what its like. 

Or, pop into your local model shop and check out some serious gear.  Cheap stuff will cause you problems short and long term.  Better Quality gear tends to be easy and better to use adding to the fun of RC aircraft rather than buying yourself a bunch of someone elses problems - Go visit your local model shop and buy brand name gear.

Current club members will find updates and soon we will add a weather section (now added -look under instant WX on the menu).  Hopefully we can convince Michael to provide daily on the spot (since he is closest to the field) wind reports. Last reports are that he is 76 metres closer to the Ashhurst end of the runway than Don!

Please do be patient whilst we populate this site and check back often or at least make a RSS feed to us so that you can be kept informed of progress.

Watch this space as Mike promises to post photos and progress reports of his latest build project!

Catch you in the air.....

April club day

The First Monthly club day went off with a bang yesterday with 14 members down flying.

The day started out well with a icey cold 3 degs before the sun came out with alight S.E winds.

Many thanks to Flash and national gas for supplying BBQ lunch and the limbo poles and yet  another show off with the pulse jet.

Please check out some of the videos of the day (links below)

Will be great to see others out there next time even if you are not flying

This photo was taken before most people had arrived  around 11am
