F5D Baulers on May 25th 2008

A small contest report + the results.

The conditions 

According to the local weather forecast...today was supposed to be a rainy day,  but, guess again. We started with some cloud cover, no rain, and by the beginning of the afternoon, the sun came through. A great day, not only what the weather is concerned, but also concerning flying... well for most of us anyway.

 

We had some mediocre performances, mainly due to fear of surpassing the 1000Watt/Min, since everybody was flying with their limiters (well, in F5D at least, in F5D Limited no limiter is required). We had some times in the 70 seconds... everybody flying a small prop.

 

On the final round, Sebatien, Luc and Willy decided to put a slightly bigger prop... . Now, we saw some real flying... times in the low to medium 60’s... All pilots were flying at the limit of out of control. Those things were going fast. At the last turn of Bastiens final lap, his limiter kicked in... 1000 Watt/Min used... just in time at 63 seconds.

In F5D Limited, Daan won the day once again. He is really flying well this year, and he is even getting to play with the big boys. Too bad he had some problems at the launch of the 3rd round, where his plane went straight into the ground.

A good day with some nice racing and some good fun. Too bat there were soo few pilots.

See you next time
