Scale CA-15 Kangaroo
|
I was a bit wary about adopting the five flight format with the highest
and lowest score discarded. However, it has proven quite effective,
as the occasional thermal flight and on the other hand, the inevitable
spin in at 3 seconds do not skew the results. I am sure we also take
delight in acknowledging the performance of those who do get the big thermals.
The results of these four classes should give a reasonably good assessment
of the relative differences of performance between 6" and 8" models and
between HLG and CLG performance.
Scores shown in red italics are individual highest
single flight scores in each class. (do not count in total scores)
Take a look at the latest high times.
Looks like we'll have to put a kilogram minimum weight on these models!!!
