As Marcel stated some of the club members discussed this slight dilemma yesterday afternoon Celwin told us the club Boomerang will easily fly for an hour on fuel.,and it has not even been set up especially for these events....it will be a very difficult for any electric glider or other configuration to even come close unless we are lucky enough to get a perfect day with thermals ect.... I go along with the suggestion we have a separate event for electric planes /gliders powered by 2200mah 3 cell batteries only ...it is a common battery ...most of us have one..and it will serve to put us on an even footing as far as the power available to each competitor. It is then up to us to set up a plane and fly it well to take the prize...this is what I see as the challenge. I feel there will be little incentive to fly electric in this event if we know before the fact that we are not going to be able to compete with these Slimey Nitros.
