a bit of Lenham

 

A spare hour, a 12 to 18mph blow and some charged batteries.... it's time for attempt no.2



the full compliment of Goodwind foamies gets a thorough dusting off




initial suspicion was that (being such a shallow hill) it would be blown-out
but the Radian cruised around admirably with the help of a chunky lipo in its belly


the Alula performed Ok, but was less happy in the blustery breeze



it's never going to be stunning, but any lift is better than no lift!







It was certainly worth the effort. The last warmth of summer, a row of cumulus straight up the slope, and the glint of full-size action further along the ridge. What's there not to like!





action shots taken with improvised mouth
mount for knock-off go pro

a quick root around under the car seats turned
up a rubber band and a lolly stick

nothing quite beats the taste of months old minty Magnum
infused wood once the fluff's been picked off!
