I know this is a winch launched forum but I am going to post this anyhow and hope I do not offend too many of you.
I just joined the RCGROUPS forum on electric launched sailplanes and put this announcement out there.
=============================================================================
Well here goes the learning experience for the Greater
Detroit Soaring and Hiking Society.
Our pure sailplane club has been branching out for a year into electric
launched sailplanes and we feel it is time to learn how the big dogs do it so
we are going to hold a two day event so our club members can learn and the
contestants can have fun contesting.
The sanction is in the mail for August 19/20 and it will be two seperate
contests with an overall first place for the two days.
The flyer and rules are on our web site www.gdshs.com and I sure would like
to hear from anyone interested in coming. I will try to set up a reserved
frequency list on the site as soon as I learn how (just started webmastering
this week).
I am hoping to help the F5J movement in the midwest and make this an annual
event if it works out. Any help any of you "pros" can give will be
appreciated.
I will be in the Kennedy Composite booth at Toledo if you want to one-on-one
with me.
Thanks for the support
