F3F FAI Lemoncello Cup

Ok friends,

Registration will open tomorrow morning at 7. Be ready with your f3xvault profile set up.

Last Weekend, we had our national competition in the slopes of Tende. We managed to do 7 rounds on saturday (south slope, 8-10m/s) and 9 more rounds on sunday (north slope, 10-12m/s). Absolutely smooth, maybe even a bit too fast (only 12 pilots came, too bad for the missing ones). We even decided to end the competition on sunday at 2PM, we had enough to get 2 discards and ranking was pretty well set then.

So for the next few days, please don’t forget to charge your planes, wax your wings, collect all the ballast you have, and get a nice bottle of suncream + water!

We will be arriving on thursday to start the installation (free flights). Dont’ forget to be careful with people walking around there, especially around the landing area.

Meeting and registration will start on friday at 9AM, until 10AM. free flights will be possible until 10 AM. No more free flights after this time. We will start the competition as soon as possible, once all pilots registered and weather conditions sufficient (we could fly at 9AM last weekend…).

In case of marginal conditions, that obliges the round to be stopped, if more than half of the pilots have flown, we will generate a group scoring (half of the pilots) to save those few flights validated. This will only be the case to save the competition, ie. for the 4 first rounds. After 4 validated rounds, there will be no more group scoring option.

In case of a refly, the pilot will have to land his plane and get a new throw 5 pilots after him (ex: pilot is number 8, he will refly after pilot 13). If the round ends before then, we will wait for his return to do the refly, and not start any new round. Coming back from landing may not take more than 5 minutes. It will be considered as against sporting rules to waste time and wait 30 minutes for a refly, to cancel a round. Pilot will be disqualified if such beheavor happens.

 

That’s it for the little warmup/prebriefing info. Have a nice weekend and let’s get ready for some race!

Ok folks,

the 2016 edition of the FAI Lemoncello Cup is about to open it’s registration.

As usual, it will be on April 1st, but this time it will be using the F3XVault registration portal. I would highly recommend you start today creating your account on their website if it does not exist yet. It only takes a fiew clicks and manages to store all your results of all competitions! pretty cool for both the pilot and the organizer…

To help the registration process, We have even made it possible to register through Paypal, the easiest way to validate for sure your registration and don’t end up in a Waiting list.

The F3XVault portal does not let automatically open the event registration, so this year don’t waste your midnight sleep.. I will simply open it around lunch on the 1st of April, and post on the website/Facebook a notification. be fast!!!

Only 35 seats this year to garantee a good competition with as many rounds as possible.

Already, I want to thank this year’s main sponsors and support: BlueBird Servo, CDAM06 and the Restaurant hosting us as usual “La Margueria“.
