F5K and 2MeRES Diggers Rest Jan 2021
It was the inaugural Victorian F5K and 2MeRES events and it was an excellent day.
It was windy, blowing 6-7m/s with gusts up to 10m/s, but there was lots of lift around so it made it a little easier.
The 2M eRES models, although being relatively simple, were surprisingly efficient and handled the contitions well. Typical weights with ballast were around 630 - 650g.
The F5K models were all moulded and handled the wind with ease.
Lots of good scores were recorded.
The 2 events alternated throughout the day and in the end the results were:
F5K
1st Dave Milward, e-CX5
2nd Marcus Stent, e-Vortex 3
3rd Hugh Blckburn, e-CX5
2M eRES
1st Marcus Stent, FreshRES
2nd Alan Mayhew, OZeRES & OD
3rd Bob Wilson Radian
A great day was had by all and everyone is looking forward to the next one.
