Oops! I made a mistake...
I meant to post this in the Glider section!
Can one of you moderators out there facilitate moving this thread to the proper category?
Thanks!

Me, too!
I'm waiting for a nice day to get it out to a local park for toss-trimming with an expended motor casing.

So far, I'm seeing very little in the way of low-wind weather forecasts for Dove Valley, but definitely keeping a close watch.
