CIRAVA - 13 June 2015 .....

Post by solentlife » 14 Jun 2015, 12:49

This is post I made on International forums to 'fly the Flag for Latvia' ....

"A meeting to show public the sport of RC in Latvija ... with full size aircraft planned but wind direction and gusts made it difficult and models only flew ... with difficulty as well !! Wind direction was from dead behind the cars so take-offs for anything except over-powered on the grass was extremely 'iffy' !!

I tried with my 40yr old biplane but she wasn't having it ... later my Concorde was flown - but that was after the event ..."

Sorry about the jerking around but I'm there to fly and its video'd by my hatcam ...

Does anyone have a link or download of the Television coverage that day ?

I see the Jurkalne Quad vid in the other thread ... but surprised that no other videos from the ground ...

I know I was only one of many people making video's on the day.

To Uldis and Organisers : Great thanks the effort and putting together the show. Pity the wind would not play with us fairly ... but that's life. Thanks again.
Looking forward to next one !!

And I do offer to help for future events if interested.

Hello Nigel. Skrunda regional television vido material will be published in late June.
I hawe all the video material from the ground and air - the evening will begin assembling. to video material should be enjoyable, this requires a serious treatment and motion that can not be done in one evening - so well of me Vido will be only on Wednesday-Thursday. Also I do not like that we publish hasty raw video, so we ruin all impression of the event.
