    I should get there noonish Friday. Have my motel reservations Fri & Sat nights. I’ll be mostly a bystander, only bringing a couple planes and really haven’t flown since last NEFI. Just got a Mobius but haven’t hooked it to a computer. Do you have to hook it to a computer first or is it ready to go? Will a 64 mb micro/sd work in it?
    It's been a few years with my Mobius, I don't think it's changed. You have to insert your sdcard, download the app. Charge the battery and hook it to your computer to setup with the app you've downloaded.

    • Well, here we are in Davenport and it's pounding down rain!!
      We've got a couple of leaks in the trailer but I think we've got it covered, not sure where it's coming in from but I'm not going out in this roaring storm to find out!

      Boy, I hope Muncie is better than this, a long way to travel for no flying!

      Grossman 56 and Mrs Grossman,
      On the road to Nefi??

        • I arrived here at site 3 about 2 hours ago. Weather is absolutely perfect! I'm going to get a few flights in before the sun sets. I hope the forecast is wrong, because it doesn't look great.

          • I hear you, its rained right across the country. If things don't look better in the morning, we're going to call it quits. A long way to drive for bad weather.
            I'll keep you informed, the rain has let up but not quite completely quit,still thunder and lightning...

                                I hate doing the motel thing. Sucks to leave the site just to find a bed, I feel like the party goes on and I’m missing out!

                                • I would have got a motel room but I don't really have the money for 3-4 days for a motel. And bunking in my cargo trailer would be uncomfortable with the humidity even with a fan.

                                    Yes I would have liked to spend that motel money on a new plane! The temperature and humidity this weekend in muncie won’t be that bad, in the 60s. You should come!

                                    • I had my trailer loaded for a Thursday departure but like I said I didn't want to sleep in the trailer. Maybe next year?

                                      • I’ve been desperately trying to finish my Thud to bring. I’m running in to some major problems with the graphics I’m using, and paint, and it still needs some clear coat. I really wanted it to have a NEFI reveal!:Angry:
                                        Maybe I’ll still bring it, if an experienced hand launcher and competent edf jet pilot would do her maiden for me. Any takers?
