Jim, how did you do? I am going to practiice the different maneuvers so I can compete at the next meet. I've always basically been stick banging and impressing people that way, but it's time to get a little serious about it and WORK on the skills he he. I flew today, I also had my fingers whacked he he. I was flipping the prop as I was choking the engine for the first flight. Ignition on, choke on full, throttle on half, I guess I was a little "lax" about it and didn''t get my right hand out of the way when the engine coughed he he. WHACK, the Bambula came around and whacked the last digit of my three middle fingers on the right hand on the back - OUCH, they were black immediately, no wait. I shook it off and flew, but not the last digit on my right ring finger is 1.5X normal siize, black/blue, hard and hurting a bit. I had my wake up call ha ha - get your bloody hand and fingers out of the way of the prop ha ha.
