OK, we're having three contests...a "last heli flying" contest, "a spot auto contest", and an unsponsored pilot contest. The "last heli flying" and the "spot-auto" are a split the pot contest...$5 to enter.

Now the reason I mention this is because the "last heli flying" is something you might want to bring your beater heli to. It's limited to "450 class" heli's. So that's 335mm blades or thereabouts, 3s-2200 battery packs max. At the timer horn, you take off and fly around the pylons at whatever speed you want and any level of motor lean-ness or anemic head speed you want. (Think of it as a pile-on race..haha). Anyway, the last heli flying is the winner.

Too bad I don't have a T-rex...sounds like fun.

Just wanted to clear up the "many" flight stations. There will be 2 flight lines with a total of 13 pilot stations. Only a couple of which will be closed for the events and demos. The rest will be open all day!

More people have beater 450's and since there are likely some wrecks, cost of repair is lower. So the contest will have more participation was the thought.

Vendors with batteries?

Will we have any vendors with "test" batteries for our usage to try out and use, etc? Would be nice as my batteries all have over 50 flights on them on average and are quite worn from a new one so they won't stand a chance against a new one any day. Need a battery with less than 20 cycles on it to get full performance!

Also good thing you're limiting it to something other than my gassers, otherwise people can go up 10 minutes after I do and I'd still be flying after they all run out of gas!

Yes, we didn't consider gassers since we didn't want it to be an all day event. Tom

When you're here introduce yourself to me. Want to meet a heli flyer from VT. I went to school there, and know about a flying field in Barre area up on the hill. I still go to VT from time to time and would be good to learn where the rc community hangs around up there.
