I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ Smile .

I'm after some (3 to be exact) extendable poles anyone got any ideas where to start.

They need to be extenable to about 20ft but then reduce down to a transportable size, light weight and easy to erect and take down quickly and have some sort of base plate to hold them vertical.

Thought appreciated

National Grid do pylons but don't think they're transportable.

Joking aside google extending gazebo poles and you can also get plastic feet that you ballast with water.

Cheap fishing poles, and some spikes in the ground. Slot the pole over the spike, job done.
