Perhaps (as the scorer) I can answer.

 

The point Rangari is a “bonus point” waypoint.  The first pilot to reach it
gets an extra scoring point.

 

The observation zone at waypoints is a 500m radius circle so pilots only
have to pass within 500m (in any direction) to make it.

 

Cheers

 

Tim

Hi Ross,

I see that the points of Keepit, Rangari and Bellata are almost in line. Is
there a reason for this, and which side of Rangari are pilots deemed to have
successfully rounded the point? Obviously flying through the beer can would
be sufficient, however if it is almost a straight line, is there a right and
wrong side to pass the point?

Cheers,

Tim
