Turkey Shoot 2014

This was the most interesting contest to watch and be a spectator because the pilots take one model and fly it in three different events.

The motor can’t be any larger than .36 and you have to fly fast, slow, pop balloons and fly some limited combat

Step 1 – Fly as fast as you can, your time is recorded in seconds

Step 2 – Fly as slow as your can, the time is recorded in seconds

The difference between the slow and fast time is the number of points you get for that portion

Step 3 – Pop as many balloons as possible in 6 minutes, you get 5 points for each balloon you pop

Step 4 – Combat with the other pilots, however it does not have all of the features of full combat

Then you add up the points you earn for fast & slow flight, balloon pop and Combat and you have the winner! Enjoy the pictures
