Additional Information
- Payloads will be available for all contestants, and may be kept afterwards as souvenirs. The provided payloads will be made from standard BT-20 tubing, 2.75 inches (70 mm) long, and weigh 28.2 grams. Contestants may use their own payloads if they choose.
- Scales will be available at check-in for contestants to use to verify the mass of their payload, but pre-flight weigh-ins are not required.
- ALL payloads will be weighed and measured at returns.
- We will be using 3-station tracking for altitude events. Baselines were laser sighted with the help of Dave O'Bryan, and measure 371, 409, and 542 meters.
