Well, I'm not sure what your royal highness determines acceptable participation, but I fly fixed wing electric, nitro CL, nitro and electric helos from 250 to 600 size. Didn't I say that I'm all about flying? I seem to remember saying that I'm now flying more in one week than I flew all last year? On my last walk to the part, I flew 3x 500 flights, 8x 450 flights, and 3x 250 flights on my helos. That's 14 batteries worth of flying. Two days prior I'd done the same. And a day before that I flew three batteries worth in an electric Me-163, three in an EDF U2, and four in a scratch built electric pylon racer.
Contributions? Where does it say in your "rulebook of the hobby" that anyone needs to make specific contributions?
