RC Slope Soaring in Hong Kong

The Hong Kong Team will depart on Wednesday and let's wish them good wind and good luck. Have a nice trip.

See you at September F3F league!!

香港隊加油呀！



Ah Wing 同 Angus,

記得帶支咳水比 CM , 唔好比佢 CUT 灣呀！

支咳水 > 100ml, 剛剛沒收了

唔怕！

去到英國，可買魚夫牌咳水

唔好呀！以我所知呢隻咳水食左會搞到反肚架！
跟住就會呵添，小心！

What is Wing holding in his hands?? A little charm to be sacrified like the Brit's team in Viking

Somewhat "excellent award"

Day 1 practice in Mickey slope was great Strong & consistent wind, excellent lift and very speedy form 4x.xx to sub-40s speed Good for tunning fast fingers

Sadly there was a rough spot landing for my Pike, with nose cone penetrated completely into mud Already fixed with quick patches and should be ready to continue practice tomorrow

第一天練習，除左阿Wing有D意外 同Angus有隻sevo壞左外（邊隻servo成日壞但又唔用唔得 ），大家都齊齊整整
勁大風的一日，係香港真係冇乜機會遇到，今日我地同法國來的Pierre Rondel都飛到彎晒翼，好肯定個個都40秒樓下，如果唔係凍到手震同吹到標眼水同落雨，真係唔想降落
今日睇Rondel飛隻Freestyler 3，好似40秒樓下唔多突出，反而佢飛Ceres就勁好多。

The famous "Bwlch T junction of the A4107 and A4061 "



山上山下差十幾度


去 Back of Wrecker 視察下環境先



好勁風，但風向好似差少少喎


冇法，執野過去 Mickey Slope



嘩！咩事


有雨喎






阿Wing同Angus丟底D飛機係外邊淋雨，真冇陰公


Planet-soaring的Pierre Rondel喎 ，佢重同我地同一酒店，有冇Martinet呀



Rondel 飛 Freestyler 3 同 Ceres F3F



阿 Wing 今晚有功課做




Rondel 隻 Ceres 3F，佢話3B版好D









阿生你班手下好掛住你呀







下回待續••••

好正嘅slope呀

加油！加油！加油！

I sponsor the servo for the top three pilot in the contest .Hope our Hong Kong team "bring it back" !!!!!!!! Win Win Win !!

堅叔，Angus話佢保證至少拿一隻回來

第二天練習：

好天就欣賞下 Bwlch D 風景啦••••事實係今朝吹西風，冇個 slope 可以飛











唯有去 Wrecker 睇下，遇到德國來的 Franz Demler，亦即係 Freestyler 3 的設計者


另外重有佢隊友、瑞士來的Reto Fiolka


Reto 重帶埋隻 Wasabi，呢隻機好有可能係用一條咸魚黎做模



阿 Franz 話如果係飛開3B/3F的朋友，Freestyler等4個月就得，唔駛等1年！阿 Wing 即入刻話要一幅“朋友的證明”





最後決定去 Mickey Slope 的西位，初時風很弱，但係後來都漸漸增強



呢隻係 Reto 的 Supersonic



來自西班牙的José Luis Alvarez










呢隻係近期的新機：Vikos


Sting


Angus 隻 Extreme


Wasabi


Crossfire V-tail

The first day competition of Welsh Open 2008.

Good morning, but bad wind.






Briefing








Mickey west slope. Waiting for the wind to pick up and changing to the right direction.









Some pilots show off their thermal flying skill during the wait.



The new Vikos attracts many attentions.

Finally, the wind changed as forecasted and we had the first round started at about 3 o'clock. The run was fairly smooth despite some interruptions due to bad wind speed or direction.


























We completed one and a half round on the first day. The second round was interrupted due to unfavorable wind condition.

Finally after 2 days of competition, total 3 rounds were conducted.

Champion : John Philips, with speed man flying at 42.xx

2nd place : Espen Torp

3rd place : Pierre Rondel

Angus performed very well, he's one of top 10 pilots : 9th place out of 45 pilots

Welsh Open 2008, day 2

Weather was good but wind still did not cooperate. Only one and a half round was completed. As a result only 3 rounds were flown. All the scores from the three rounds were counted in the final result.



Briefing and lucky draw.










Waiting at the Back of Wrecker.


Competition was started in the afternoon.










Wind droped considerably. Round 4 was interrupted.
