Handicapping due to airframe is completely condition
dependent. If the air is active, and the thermals
close together, all planes are virtually equal, and
comes down to the landing. Of course, the experienced
pilot will minimize the effects of the poor
conditions, and take advantage of his "handicap." In
other words, hard to come up with an equitable number
or percentage that will work consistently. You'll
probably need to use some trial and error, and see
what works at your particular field under normal
conditions for your area. I think you'll find that the
data collected will be more representative of the
pilots flying each model, than the models themselves.

Once you find out that doesn't work, and the same guys
keep winning.... In golf they handicap the players...
not their clubs of choice....

have fun
