Those attending the Lodge Farm Free Flight Scale Day on Sunday 21st May 2023 experienced a day of almost perfect flying conditions.

Event Contest Director Mike Smith said, “We were very lucky with the wind direction as we were shielded by the trees surrounding the field. Attendance was lower than normal but the 12+ mph wind speed forecast might have deterred some fliers from coming along; unfortunately those not attending missed out on a cracking day of flying!”.

Mike also offered his thanks to both Chris Chapman and Philip Smith for flight judging on the day.

The results from the competitions held at Lodge Farm, (scale flying only and kit-scale precision), will be uploaded to the BMFA Competition results portal shortly.

Competitor Chris Brainwood recorded a video which provides a visual record of the excellent day that was experienced by those attending.

Chris runs an excellent aeromodelling YouTube channel to which he regularly posts new videos. Click here to view more excellent and entertaining recordings of both scale/sport indoor and outdoor free-flight flying; Please don’t forget to also subscribe to Chris’s channel!
