Default RE: OPEN CHALLENGE TO ALL PUNKS..........

Thanks for the details. I've got a rack full of ArrowPlanes, un-built cores, Seal-Lamin, bladder material and similar hanging around now that the only Fast contest is the Bladder Grabber. I'll build a couple for fun. Everyone is F2d around here and although I really like the way the F2d airplanes fly, I HATE the rules. The Phoenix spring contest tried Fast F2d (F2d airplanes with AMA Fast rules). It was apparently a great success.

Lee has been flying SSC and Open B R/C combat for quite a few years now and really revolutionized the sport by bringing in CL Combat technology, bladders, etc. He took last year off but we hope to see him again soon. The RC Falcons that were available as ARF's are not the same as the ones that Lee actually designed and built, and they were produced without his input, so if you blew the wing off of one of those, it doesn't count. I've got a few Cobra's for SSC, they are like Falcons except that they have a separate pitch control surface. It really helps with the launch and trimming.

Thanks again.
