eastcoaster Posted May 8, 2019 Report Posted May 8, 2019 Just out of interest do all you club flyers still ask for your flying time when it's raining at home .Mine flew for hour +half today and were enjoying it . My feeding is tic beans X gerry X barley . I am not competitive at club racing so just interested if it mattered for club racing when weather is bad .
dal2 Posted May 8, 2019 Report Posted May 8, 2019 An hour and a half standing in the rain dusnse sound like fun .....10 mins is fine for me . ...wet or dry

Never interested how many minutes they do at home more how they look while doing it .
Roland Posted May 9, 2019 Report Posted May 9, 2019 Feel that a lot of that energy used flying out would be better spent in the loft and keeping for the next race.

Roland Posted May 10, 2019 Report Posted May 10, 2019 I was fortunate enough to have a open loft. No need to train etc.
