Recommended Posts

Venue is Little Bentley Polo Club, Rectory Road, Essex, CO7 8SN.

Your model must have an approved height limiting/data logging device (AMRT) which must be able to show the max height your model goes to during its motor run time plus 10 seconds after your motor is shut off.

The limiting function must be set to allow maximum 30 seconds motor run time, and the height limiting function must either be disabled or set to 300m.
Motor restart is permitted at any time during flight for safety reasons, but will result in a zero score for that round.

The competition will be run to BMFA Local Rules, 6 rounds will be flown if conditions permit and there will not be a flyoff.
Entry fee £12.00 payable on the day.
Proof of BMFA membership (card is sufficient) required.
Entry closes midday Saturday 14th September.
Timing on the day may vary, first flight around 10am.

Deeply regret that currently I won't be able to make this comp due to personnel circumstances. My apologies for any inconveniences, especially as only 8 have their names down, and the weather looking good.

Justin, thanks for stepping in. I was feeling terrible about having to cry off. 

Hoping you have a great comp, weather looks great at the mo.

No problem, I had been intending to join just a bit delayed in putting my name down - fortunately Mike reminded me.

Great! Please could I ask for two slots of 5? It'd be nice if this qualifies for the league with at least 4 per slot.

Thanks John for running the competition, and a big thank you to everyone who helped me throughout the day. A very enjoyable day indeed.

Yes, enjoyable day just paying for it the day after🫢 Best bit was round 2, when Dave Godbold timing for me, said everyone els had landed in less than 4 minutes. 

Whilst accepting the case to make it count as to the F5j Leaque, to fly 2 slots per round, it did make it a trial to us olduns, to keep up with walking to and fro. Must admit to picking events now, as to the number of entry's. as to how the number of slots per round,, re breaks in flying & timing( the latter you feel obliged to do, re the help that others loan to yourself)

Thanks to John & the Ipswich club, for still providing an event North of the Thames🤗
