After settling on the APC 18x12 thin electric prop, I finally got to try the 8S Sequence in competition. This is my first year flying intermediate. My goal was to finish somewhere in the middle of the pack. Flying against the 2-meter birds I managed to pull off a 2nd and a 1st place in the 2 contests I’ve flown so far. After this experience I have 2 thoughts. First, the Sequence is a fine sport bird on 6s, If you really want something to compete with the usual 2 meter pattern planes you’ll need an 8s setup. Second, You will not find a finer group of gentlemen to fly with than the folks here in district 6. I am honored and pleased to be part of this talented group. While it is a contest and we all want to do our best, all of the flyers are very supportive of each other with a free exchange of ideas and tips to improve everyone’s flying. If you have a chance to fly a contest in this district, I’d highly recommend it.
