With all of the great looking E-Combat planes we're seeing now, I am interested in putting on a FUN DAY OF COMBAT IN NACOGDOCHES, TX. some time in early June at our new Nacogdoches flying field..
Preliminary plans would include four rounds of SSC, not sanctioned, but to RCCA rules, and as many rounds of E-Combat (warbirds only) as we have time or planes for. We will put together a set of E-rules from those that have already been discussed. Basically, the planes would be limited to somewhat authentic looking warbirds flying with two cell lipos only with a minimum weight of ten oz.
This will not be a sanctioned meet, but will be flown for fun only. It's time we saw some of these great Electric designs in a combat setting.
The date is not firmed up but will be in early June. I have to check on conflicts.
Post in here if this format would interest you, and you would likely attend.

First saturday in June would be 3 days after returning from Dixie NATS, so it would depend on how much I destroy in Georgia whether I'd have anything to fly. The next Saturday in June would be the day before the SSC meet at GCRC in Houston. That might not be a bad idea to have the Fun combat on Saturday at your field, then everybody can come on down and fly for points on Sunday... If you did it June 11th, I'd just make it 100% eCombat, so we can save our good stuff for Sunday..

Cajun,
Livingston has a class"C" contest on Sat June11 but it would not mater if you do non sanction. I be attending a wedding that June 11 so I have to pass on that day. The GCRC sanction is in the mail. I been real busy but will get contest info posted real soon. This was a sort of last minute "good' idea from my flying buddies to do a contest at GCRC.
