2022 North American Cup Additional Information
As stated in the 2022 North American Cup contest notice the competitors MUST provide their own timekeepers. This applies to the fly-offs also. As the F1A and F1B events have the most entries please use flyers from F1A to time the F1B’s and the F1B’s time the F1A’s for the fly-offs. Also, I would prefer that the competitor not use his or her best friend for the timer.
My plan is to not use the “Altitude Flyoff” procedure for any of the fly-offs. As we have several extra days to complete the contest my main goal is to use the normal fly-off procedure to complete the contest.
Regarding the “Electronic Evidence of Flight Time for Fly-offs” it will be the competitor responsibility to set their altimeter with the unique altitude-time signature before the fly-off flights. This applies to any model that you fly in the fly-off. If you do not understand these condition’s please read the rule under section F1.2.7 of the Sporting Code. In this section is states that the altimeter has to have an altitude measuring frequency of at least 2 Hz. The All-Tee altimeter so far is the only altimeter that has that capability. To my knowledge the other altimeters that we use do not meet that requirement. As I believe that this is not fare to the competitor’s that have the other altimeters in their models and do not have an All-Tee they can also do the unique signature before the fly-off flight. If they set their DT time for 20 seconds over the required flight time, meaning 6:20 for a 6:00 minute fly-off flight and then have a disputed flight the altimeter graph will show that the model was over the required 6:00 minute max. The Jury will then review the data and make a decision on the flight.
As a reminder to the F1B competitor’s the new rule for fly-offs states that you need to wind your motor in the seven minute period for the round. You do not wind your motor before the round as we did the past few years.

Info on SEN
When sending information to be included in SEN it is better to send it in plain text, a text email or if the document is complicated in Microsoft Word or similar. Do not use PDF because we cannot include it in the SEN document, so we use a program to convert it plain text or Microsoft Word. This program does not always do a good job and sometimes the converted document will upset the whole SEN issue. This can take a long time to fix and may delay the SEN or the publication of the story. Do not send a Picture, either of the text or a picture for inclusion. On very rare occasions we will include an image but check with us before sending an image.
Contest results are best in Excel (or a similar spread sheet program) format as this gives a the most options for formatting the results to fit on a page.
