May Club Night

Morning all,

just a quick reminder that tonight is the official clubnight for the month of May, and we shall be kicking off the Club Competition Series for 2016 with the Limbo Competition.

The rules are simple. A limbo wire/ribbon will be set up on the field. Thou shalt take off your plane, and a 2 minute timer shall be started. Thou shalt proceed to make as many passes under the limbo gate in one direction only. At the end of 2 minutes, thou shalt land. The person who completes the most passes under the limbo gate, shall be crowned May club Night champion.

You can enter with any plane/helicopter/multirotor, it can be hand launched, foot launched, bungee launched, whatever.

Don't forget that all points gained tonight go into the yearly league table, and the person with the most points in the year shall win the coveted RDMFC Club Competition Series Award 2016. So even if you only get one point tonight, that could make all the difference! You never know, you might be awarded a Mystery Bonus Points Bonus too!

Oh, and the official Official's decision shalt be final, as always.

I'll be there around 6pm ish to set the Limbo gate up, comp to start whenever we are ready after that! See you there.

Andy
