Spectator-Friendly < Testing Helicopter's to it's full potential

Got a 2:10 minute flight in my basement tonight with a chinook, mass 3.86g, .125" rubber. A score of 6:30. Going to NY states this weekend. I'll post more info later, busy with other events right now. I'm not secretive about my design, ask if you have questions. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: DANYA

wow

Yeah, you shouldn't overlap them.

I don't think you should have them overlap, can you specitfy "overlap" lolz

I'm rebuilding my plane, so should I make the pieces I'm going to glue together overlap or no? As in, for example, the wings?

I know nothing about this event,How do you charge the capacitor?

so about 2 minutes would be reasonable for a medal ..,right?

What are the ideal flight times?

my partner and i worked on a design with the props made out of solid balsa 45 degree angle it weigh 7 grams the thing is it flies but it doesn't last long we have the power but not the duration using very thick rubber help please!!!!!!!!!!ASAP
