Please call 077393 20806 or 07941 814019 and we will open the gates remotely. Additional Info: The rules are a variant of BARCS Multi-launch but, for Electric launch gliders, the variant is slightly different from last year. As before, Electric launch gliders must be fitted with an AMRT (height limiter) which cuts the motor at 30 secs and records the launch height. Electric launch height remains at 175m but there will now be a penalty of 3 pts per metre for Electric launches exceeding it. Most pilots will want to set AMRTs to cut a little below 175m. It is fine instead to use F5J firmware and cut the motor manually. A minimum of 4 rounds and a maximum of 6 rounds will be flown Disciplines: Glider, Electric, Open, 100” Contestants: John Postle - Electric Terry Letchford - Electric Alan Harris - Electric Nick Jackson - Electric Eddy Small - Open Electric Mike Connell - Open Electric Brian Martin - Electric 100" Keith Fisher - Electric Open Richard Harris - Electric Open Derek Collings - Alan Twine - Bob Ryan - Greg Hayfield - winch launch Iain Stingemore - winch launch Ian Nicholls - winch launch Bob Ryan - ?
