Wake up! Time to fly!
Well its that time to start getting organized for the trip to Ohio. As last year was my first one I was kind of deer in the headlights for most of it and down sick for the rest hehe. (Looks over at the sandals nearly a year later that still carry Ohio mud that won't even wire brush off)
I am now prepared for that whole go go go thing that is Flite Fest but I plan to do things differently this year. Last year I volunteered and loved helping and meeting so many people. I have again volunteered and look forward to more of the same. I will however be limiting that to my scheduled shifts with maybe a little over time. I will not however be staying for double shift times as I missed out on a lot of the things happening as well as missed connecting with people here on the forums to do things we had tentatively planned on doing together.
This year I plan to spend some time down at the MGP side and get more involved with the whole race process as I really want to progress and find a way to start competing. I also have the goal of flying a full pack in a fixed wing plane if I have to launch a wing full vertical and hold max throttle til the pack dies to do so hehe.
I also want to spend some time helping people set up or build quads if they need it so I will set aside some time to do that as well. Probably more in the evenings after the flight line shuts down but still allow for some socialization that I missed out on last year after catching a cold and having to get to bed early with cold meds to survive the following days duties.
I know this is open to a very lax time schedule that FF runs on so making appointments would be unrealistic. However if you are going to FFO and need or want some help post in this thread what it is you want to do or need and I will make sure I bring proper tools to help.
I on the other hand also need help to do some of this. Sadly I have a very old laptop and that has Win XP on it and will not run any of the software to do drone set up on. So if anyone has and wouldn't mind giving me access should I need to borrow / use one on occasion to program or update peoples Flight Controllers that would be greatly appreciated. I will download the stand alone versions for KISS and Betaflight as well as the newest targets for popular Flight controllers so internet will not hold that all back.
So if someone could help me out or if you need help and want me to work with you on your setups / builds let me know below and we will confirm where to meet up and when depending on the volunteer schedules. Anyway see you all there even if you don't need my help! Maybe we can break a few props together.
