2016 contest calendar

Below is a list of contests I am hoping to compete in in 2016. Due to other commitments and weather I might miss a few but I will try my best to fly in as many as possible.

Update 16/12/2016: The final results of the 2016 F5J league has been published. I am happy to announce that even though I did not compete in the last few contests I still managed to win the 2016 F5J League!

Since it was my first year of contesting (and flying for that matter) I am more than happy with the result!

I am also taking this opportunity to announce that I won't be competing in 2017, I am selling most of my planes as well. RC gliding/F5J was fun but I am now going back to full-size flying on weekends.

Thanks for the support!
