Having Fun

Three members of Morpheus Lab (Nelson Guerreiro, Ryan Hubbard, and Geoff Slipher) along with members of the Newport News Park Radio Control Club (NNPRCC) host the Denbigh Baptist Christian School for a fun day of flying outdoors. The event was held at the NNPRCC flying field, and began with a brief talk by Morpheus Lab researcher, Nelson Guerreiro. Then it is was on to the flying.  Each of the kids were invited to learn to fly NNPRCC members’ aircraft using a “Buddy Box” system. The kids did great! They also had the opportunity to play with one of Morpheus Lab’s Ornithopters (AJ), and to practice their flying skills on Morpheus Lab’s RC flight simulator. A great time was had by all.

Thank you to all the kids and adults of the Denbigh Baptist Christian School as well as the participating members of the NNPRCC for a fun-filled day!
