Bro, must all the planes be electric?

[fudge2k85]

Hi Bro, its actually in the image I posted in the first post. But fyi in case you missed it, its on the 21st March 2010, with training sessions for the racers as stated in the Rules & Regulations.

You can either join us as a display flyer or a racer!

Waiting to hear from you soon!

[fudge2k85]

Bro, must all the planes be electric?

Hmmm, well, to be honest, I haven't seen a nitro 3D plane. But then again, I'm still quite junior in this hobby.

I guess we can leave it open and we'll see how it goes. If we have enough participants from nitro, we may open a separate category as well.

Bro, must all the planes be electric?

You got a NITRO plane ?!?

[NaimO]

You got a NITRO plane ?!?
