The event is a ‘Bartletts League’ qualifier and will be run at Bartletts Farm,  on our new field which is located at the top end of the entrance lane, NOT the ‘old’ field on the r/h side of the lane.

Our land owner has now given us permission to drive on the grassed area ( which is about to be cut)  assuming  that the ground is hard enough to take vehicles without damage.  We will know on the day, but it should mean we can drive and park along the appropriate side of the field and fly from the back of our cars. Please do not drive on the grassed area until a decision is taken regarding wind direction etc.

The usual 3 classes of model can be flown, Open, 2Mtr and 100” (up to 2.6mtr allowed), and each can score points in their own Bartletts league. Please note that models must comply with BARCS class restrictions if you wish to also score in the appropriate BARCS Leagues.

2 entries allowed per pilot, but each entry must be with different class models.

AMRT (Height limiter) CAN be set to any height up to 300mtrs, but MUST be set with a maximum motor run time of 30sec.

Scoring as per F5J, i.e. a penalty of 3 points per metre for launching over 200mtrs, BUT no bonus for launching below 200mtrs.

And don’t forget, not only can you re start your motor in an emergency (which cancels that flight score) but you get one re launch in a slot if you find it necessary

 Entry £5.00 payable on the day.

Please register your entry in this thread, all will be assumed to on 2.4 unless advised

Yes please - Open 2.4 gHz. (Though I'm away next week too and unlike Brian I could definitely have done with the practice.)
