Just set up my strip this year too.
Buy a cheap tractor & topper mower, or get the farmer to do it for you... will need cutting weekly or twice weekly in the summer... If livestock is going to be anywhere near it then fence both sides with a single strand of electrified wire.
PUT A WINDSOCK UP..... very important.
This is mine when I cut if first for the preliminary alignment.... the red lines is where the strip is now...... 500 metres level and no restricted airspace & 50 metres from my back door !...wonderful
