Have your sick-bucket ready, and turn the volume down!
Come along for a ride on the top of my 48 inch span electric powered OMP Decathlon, at my club field in Daresbury.
play the vid in 1080p, or higher if you can, or t will just be a blurry mess.
There was going to be a much more sedate third part, from a large powered glider, but the light was too poor due to the overcast.
The radio system is Taranis, the batteries 4Max, and the camera is a mobius.

Don't confuse us with RAF Halton, in Buckinghamshire. This Halton is near Daresbury, just a couple of miles outside Warrington, in Cheshire.
We have sole use of a large well-drained open grass field with a landing strip that measures 155 x 37 Metres, oriented East/West.(so no dodging dog-walkers, sheep, or cattle, etc) a hard track leading to a hard-stand and turning circle by the cabin, with heating and cooking facilities, and 7 days a week access - dawn til dusk, set-up tables, and plenty of chairs. (and a proper lavatory - no finding a bush to water!) and the nearest residential house is a good half-mile away.
We fly anything from powered gliders to scale models, aerobats, helicopters and quads.
We even have a control-line circle, if that is your 'thing'.
There is plenty of open farmland on three sides - the fourth has a stand of trees separating us from the Motorway, which is a safe distance away, but can be rather noisy.
Sunday is the best day for casual visitors and potential members, as there is almost always someone there all day. By prior arrangement, weekday visits are possible.
