The Bug is so light, the floors won't be a any more a problem than the
ground. You'll probably catch it most times anyways - indoors is good
for catching practice. I've flown mine in the Dome several times. On a
hard side-arm launch in dead air I was getting 30 second flights.
What club is it? Where do they fly?
