Grimsson Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Does anybody know whether Upottery abandoned airfield is public access? I have read that people fly rc planes there sometimes, but no recent information. I would like to take a drive up there next week to run in the Losi once built. Thanks, Mike.

bertberr Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Not sure TBH, isn't there a museum there now? No idea what it is though... Unfortunately, most decent sized 'unused' / vacant sites in the UK are fenced off, just to make sure nobody can enjoy them. What about a big field, short grass? Like Decoy or Watcombe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimsson Posted October 24, 2018 Author Share Posted October 24, 2018 I have been given a number of the owner, but he charges people to use the airfield. Might be an idea if we could get a group bash together, but not by myself ? Yer I will be going to Decoy and Watcombe. Would prefer not to have deal with the residents moaning about nose of a 1/5 petrol screaming about ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertberr Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 The top field at Watcombe above the bmx track is good as it's a fair way from any houses. Only dog walkers up there and they don't matter ()... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fly In My Soup Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Upottery is roughly 20 mins from me...I'd be up for a bash round thereabouts! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimsson Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 You will have to let me know some bashing spots near you, then we can arrange a meet up. Cheers, Mike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is an old thread, but did you find any good areas to take your 1/5? Im I’m Bridgwater and keep getting tempted to buy a Baja, just worried about the noise and places to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
