Contest in Florida
« on: June 14, 2007, 11:02:59 AM »
As Contest coordinator for Paradise field and after much discussion. We have decided to host a minimum of 6 racing contests in 2008, starting in February and running throughout the year. In order not to conflict with other contest. I  am opening it up to forum opinion as to the best dates.

The contests, all will be 2 day venues, events will start with the following with more being added or dropped based on participation.

TQR, NCLRA rules

B Team Race, NCLRA rules with options or exceptions afforded to international competitors on a case by case basis at the discretion of the CD and event directors.

Clown Race, NCLRA Rules

F2C, FAI rules minimum 3 heats, 2 semi, one final, or as participation dictates.

F2CN, Since we would like to draw more international competitors the rules will be based on a combination of NCLRA, BMFA, and FAI F2F. This rule set will be announced in the near future. Note it will "not" be limited to non-integral piston and liners.

On edit: For those that want to fly NCLRA F2CN rules, OK. For those that want to fly FAI F2F rules , plus no squish bottles, all the better there will probably be a 1st place purse of $500.00 confidence is very high for this to happen.



1/2A Mouse Class 1 exception here is Cox engines only.

Super Slow Rat, NCLRA rules.

This is a tentative list we may add AMA Goodyear and 15 rat based on responses and participation.

Please be advised we have one circle, if you plan to attend any of our contest, come ready to race, as practice times will be limited and strictly enforced.

m) During the refuelling and the restart of the motor, and until the time when he releases the model aircraft, the mechanic must keep the model aircraft in contact with the ground by at least one point and with the centre line outside the flight circle. During that time the pilot must be crouching or sitting inside the centre circle. He keeps one hand on the ground and his handle and his lines as close to the ground as defined by the F2C panel of judges until the model aircraft starts again.
