Indoor Flying: Finished for the 25/26 Winter season
As well as flying outside on our regular flying fields all year round, during the Winter months usually, we meet up inside about once a month. We have a natter, fly indoor models and complain about how the weather does not let us fly as much as we would like. During the Winter months these are normally held “ABOUT” monthly. The hall is okay for small very lightweight indoor models vapors, mini helis, tiny whoop quads etc. It is not suitable for larger, faster flying models, 3D models, or larger helis and quads.
Held at Great Barford Village Hall, Fishers Close, Gt. Barford, MK44 3HA. (Just off Green End Rd.)
Wednesdays 1930 to 2130hrs
Finished for the 25/26 Winter season
