The
Hong Kong Radio Control Soaring Society organized a60"
F3Fslope
race
in Ma On Shan on Sunday, 5March
2006.
The
weather God cried for the rain early in the morning.Despite
of rain, some diehard F3F fans insisted on hiking up to the mountain
and hope that the rain would stop later while a few pilots stayed in
the car park waiting for instruction by fellows up in the mountain.
Finally, after about an hour of wait, the rain stopped! We immediately
set up the equipment and the race was started right after 12:00pm. The wind speed averaged at
20km per hour, a
perfect condition for F3F. A total of10
pilots joined
the race. After 10 rounds of intense competition, the race was called
off at 4:10pm. Wonderful! The winner of the race is Au
Chi Fai. Congratulation! HKRCSS
wishes to thank Steve Drake of US for sponsoring a prize for the race. Here
