Race Tips

After setup, heats will be generated. Make sure that you know how to change the channel on your video transmitter quickly. You will be given around 5 minutes to change your channel to the assigned one before racing will commence.

Before each race, check that your propeller rotations are correct. If you have just changed a propeller out, check this twice. Test arm on the starting block, but only when everyone is aware and away from the starting block in case of a malfunction.

Check that your battery is charged before each race. You will only have 2 minutes from the end of the previous race to the start of your race. With our current race format, you will need 13 packs for the whole day.

Our timing system measures the signal strength of your video. When  you pass through the start/finish gate, your video signal will peak and be measured as the start/finish of your laps. There are no modifications required on your aircraft to work with our timing system.
