The limit
on battery will be a 2 or 3 cell with 1320mAh
Max.
Start the horn with full contact, as your out
step back away from the flight line, when plane/pilot count gets
to 6, I will have 6 judges ready to step up assigned to each pilot
to start counting impacts upon a second horn sound for the final 2
minute countdown, Any model(s) involved in an impact hitter/hitty
scores a point via judges official tally not pilots. Both or
multiple planes score per impact. The winner would be declared by
most impacts. In case of tie draw straws from clenched fist for
shortest.
This is like a qualify heat with a final all in
one, then ultimate luck if your skills are equal. This format
should limit duration as well as purpose built duration models
with no maneuverability or combat skills strictly entering on
luck.

your RV generator’s from 10 pm to 7 am. We are not going to make
this a rule…just a request for those that can do so.
• If your RV utilizes a diesel
generator, we ask that you use an exhaust pipe extension to
help reduce noxious fumes to those around you. We are not
requiring this...but may have to if it becomes a bigger
problem. If you do not have an extension…..you should ask the
RV host to park you away from the more dense areas.

an RV not a tent.
