All,
May 4th will be the first official outdoor clubnight at the new field. We shall be running the first round of the club night competition series - 2017 edition, namely the climb and glide round. There's no restriction on what you fly, or how you fly it. everyone is encouraged to enter, it's not a serious competition, just a bit of fun! The rules are as follows:
1. You shall launch model (by hand, or off the ground) on the official official's command, at which point a 30 second timer shall be started.
2. You shall climb your model to the heavens for 30 seconds, at which point the Official Official shall shout at you to turn your motor off, or cut your engine (bringing it to idle is acceptable, although I'll be watching for sneaky blips of throttle, and high idles!).
3. You shall glide down to a landing, at which point the timer shall be stopped.
4. The aim is to have the longest time in the air. Longer flight = more points.
5. There shall be a spot landing bonus available.
6. There shall be an "entertaining flight" bonus too. A boring glide = no bonus points. Much aerobatics and tomfoolery on the way down = many bonus points!
As always, the Official Official's word is final!
We shall hopefully having a BBQ too, so bring your 50p's if you want a burger or sausage-inna-bun, so see you there!
