I Just found FT in February and have built an FT Flyer, Delta and Versa Wing. Only the Flyer has maidened and after some tweaks she flies well.
Living in the DC area presents some special challenges. All of the county parks near me (I live in Rockville MD) explicitly forbid RC model aircraft. Then there is the DC SFRA (Special Flight Rules Area).
I have joined 3 flying clubs, Konterra, DCRC and CASA. They seem like great organizations but they're far away and require a proficiency check before I can "solo". This is perfectly reasonable but challenging to line up an appointment that doesn't get scrubbed because of weather.
I need a place to go for a quick flight after work without dealing with rush hour traffic. It seems I've picked the worst place to live and have an RC hobby. Can anyone suggest a good place to fly near Rockville where the Police won't come and take away my toys?
Seriously considering moving to Ohio![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
