Mid-airs are no one's fault, almost by definition. You could argue that both pilots could have made evasive maneuvers. Just suck it up. I don't believe in payola when it comes to R/C. If you can't afford to crash (financially and emotionally) leave the plane in the car.
My club has no rules regarding patterns and such. Seems unnecessary to me. We have enough rules as it is. In my only mid-air, neither myself or the other pilot involved gave any thought as to who was at fault - it just happened; we were flying in opposite directions. We actually kidded each other about it. Definitely there were no hard feelings.
