Default RE: Oh, those '60's again!

Gotta try one with a disposable SS on 35 and bladder pressure in a little pod screwed behind the backplate, and a rubber duckie 5-3.

Fun fly Event: Being a SS or other reedie with a fuel tank of your choosing fitted. Fuel allotment - a syringe with 5cc of fuel. Materials: A ply firewall and screws, a bit of a handkerchief, whatever odds and ends woul be needed otherwise. Start the timer, start building, launch, last one down wins, or combined speed build score with flight duration score, whatever. No mechanical timers or the like, strictly, engine, fuel, tank of sorts, and the provided materials. Score a zero for flight if not recovered but a pat on the back for thermal flyaways? Nah, maybe just time it until down or OOS.

Sounds fun to me!

Hey Vicman - what about at the speed rally? If I come, I'll bring one, plus a monocopter. Is this a big ol' field?
