Set Altitude

Overview of Rules:

The goal of Set Altitude (160 meters) is to fly a model to exactly 160 meters. Models will be tracked by theodolite to ejection, tracking powder is recommended!

Design Considerations:

A dependable design is important. Practice is also important, though you can't practice on the day of the event!

Tips for Beginners:

Pick a model and go fly it. If your club doesn't want to set up altitude tracking, you can always test with an altimeter. You want to find a model that can hit the altitude consistently. 

Advanced Tips: These tips are for Random Altitude, but most apply. https://sites.google.com/site/xnarcompetition/altitude-events/precision-altitude
