Additional notes:
There are no facilities at this location, so bring your own drinks and food, if you plan to stay for the day.

There are no toilet facilities at this location, so ensure you’ve visited the little boys / girls room before you attend.

Parking can be limited, so it may mean a short walk to the site, if you can’t park directly outside the location.

Access to site could be a challenge for those who are not able climb / clamber over rocks (approx 2ft - 3ft in height), then it’s a 500 meter walk to the TOAL point

Please remember to wear your official Membership ID card to this club meetup — it helps other members recognise you straight away.

Official club meetup ID cards and lanyards are available from our shop:

Tagging regional group @group-eastmidlands to let you all know :person_raising_hand:t2:

Also tagging @Steve6560 as you said you wanted to fly here :person_raising_hand:t2:

Hope to see you there!

Tagging you all in this one, because I know you enjoy flying at this place.

Others may be interested too, so you’re more than welcome to come along.

This location / Bando is subject to redevelopment, in the near future, so may not be around for much longer, before it goes the way others have gone previously. :cry:

Nice one @TheBinman ! I was up there at the weekend, my 3" enjoyed it so much it decided to spend the night (on a roof, I get that a lot…)

Will definitely be there, looking forward to meeting folks! :slight_smile:

Sounds like a plan. I am already working on the 2nd version of the clasp that goes around the Mini 5 Pro to hold the fishing wire. I am also going to print another claw (the smaller version to the one I gave you) in ASA-CF to add some extra weight to it.

A couple of FPV pilots on Facebook were flying there at the weekend with wings, so I checked with them.

The pile of rocks blocking the entrance has been beefed up as well so hopefully it’s harder to fly tip in future.

(Although a few bits of extra rubbish had been dumped on top of the rocks when I went back on Sunday :roll_eyes:).
