Are you serious? A "3d cup" displaying scale flying? Seems way off the mark to me.

Then surely they will just watch the actual model airshow? The demographic of those actually there to watch the competition are gonna be 3d pilots or people with an interest in 3d, and as such will surely be bored stiff! I guess it will be a good time for a toilet break!

Have to agree with simmO, I love all aspects of the sport and would like to see some scale, just for interest. I dont think this would detract from the main event.

the main attraction is our 3d competition of course..which will run for the majority of the day
but i think the spectators will like to see a small amount of scale etc.this isnt a small competition on a muddy field with maybe 200 spectator..there is 8000 spectators expected at weston park model show and we must have points of interest for everyone/including promo slots for trade a bit like the masters.remember that massive jet ranger that was displayed fantastic thanks craig simmons

At 3DM in 2008 someone was going to demo a turbine heli but had tech issues. At that time I had not seen a turbine heli in person so was very interested.
A few shops had scale helis displayed. I think the variety is good. Even the 3D adreneline junkies might get tired of non-stop 3D

Talk to dave fisher Craig, they have scale sections in the f3c comps they do, also you could approch people down at charmouth.
I am not in to scales myself, but even i was impressed at charmouth i think last spring when that turbine cobra was bombing around. Also Jamie, an idea slot to show off that superb turbine synergy mate |
