1. The Great F1B Experiment, REV 1

 

The Great F1B Experiment, REV 1
From: Walt Ghio   [email protected]

As I was working on the time card layout, I decided to make a small change to the format for the contest.  The format is based on the idea put forward by Mike Woodhouse.  After thinking about the seven rounds of data and this is an experiment with the flight time as the data, I decided to make a change.  The odd rounds, 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th will use the ten-minute window to launch your model.  The even rounds, 2nd, 4th and 6th will not have a window to launch your model.  You and your timing team mate will have the complete round to make your flight as we now use for our contest.  In this new format we can compare the different ratio of maxed flight to dropped flights.  If we have thirty entries this will give us 120 flights with a ten-minute window to compare to 90 flights with no ten- minute window.

To speed up the sign in process please send me your mailing address, AMA number and I will make out the AMA form and only need you to sign the sheet.  Use my email address above to send me the information.
