RC Slope Soaring in Hong Kong

因為頒獎典禮會係Banquet時進行，要10號下午所有賽事完結後才有成積頒獎。如果Banquet早一晚的話，就唔可以同時舉行頒獎禮，因為未賽完，那麼頒獎禮就要在10號賽事完結後在山上舉行，比較無咁隆重，而且D禮品帶上山都幾係野！

Hi Kenneth,

I think only the OLD wisdom could understand the 玄機 !

You and me may be too young to understand !!!

Oh! 多謝指點，我攪錯！
Banquet日期應該是10月10日晚！(嘩！係雙十節，就擋跟台灣飛友興祝下啦)

Stanley,

Kenneth was asking you why the banquet will be on NOV but not OCT !!

Either you are too old, or I am too young !!

Woo, Stanley,

We are submitting the post at the same time.

I am not that old, still fast enough to correct my own mistake!

Thanks both...

臺灣隊矢志奪三連冠 香港隊主場不容有失

今次有好戲睇

各位飛友，上星期日的TR2010組織會議上對參賽資格訂下了一些大原則，在此詳述：

1. 基本上比賽人數上限定在40至50之間
2. 本地參賽飛友盡量維持在少過一半總參賽人數，除非外國參賽者太少
例如 外國賽手有20人，本地賽手就最多只能有20人，共40人參賽
如 外國賽手有25人，本地賽手就最多只能有25人，共50人參賽
如 外國賽手有30人，本地賽手就最多只能有20人，共50人參賽
如 外國賽手只得15人，本地賽手就可以有25人，共40人參賽
外國賽手在限期前報名有優先權，但每個國家也最多只能出10位賽員，但實際上台灣可能有較多飛友，星加坡可能沒有這麼多，那麼兩地區可共有20位賽手，如星加坡只有5人，台灣就可以有15人，實際人數到註策限期後跟當時情況再作調整。總之全部外國賽手總數最多40人(如果是這樣的話，那香港就只能以10人應戰) 。
3. 本地參賽資格用2009年F3F聯賽的成積選出，選出後如果還有後補位置，就以今年的聯賽成積(計至8月8日那場賽事)排名選拔。

各位飛友，這個大原則在組織會議上已詳盡討論清楚，各位也不便提出反對，但如有任何改善空間的意見，歡迎在此提出，以作改善，謝謝 ！

我報名颱風賽

Hi Stanley,

I am 20th in the 2009 league so I am probably not qualified for TR . However, TR is also the 10th league of 2010 and I don't want to miss it. What do you think

Two possibilities:

1. Don't count TR2010 as league race and organize another once in October.

2. Allow pilots to discard October race if they are not participating in TR2010. The average score will be used to generate the 2010 league ranking list. The average score is the total score minus discard then divided by the total number of race held, so in this case, those who can not participate in TR2010 will be divided by a number minus one.

I think the second approach is more favorable.

Stanley

Stanley,

較早前Eric,燦叔及我登記參賽飛機有變如下:

Eric的3号機由Sting轉為FR3
燦叔的2号機為FR3
Kenneth的3号機由NYX轉為FR3

謝謝!

如果仲有位, 我都想玩埋一份. Count me in!!

台灣長弓與韓國Artist第一次正面交鋒

Dear fellow HK pilots,

We have now a total of 53 pilots registered in TR2010, of which 29 are from overseas and 24 are locals.
http://www.hkrcss.org/HKF3F/TR2010_pilot_list.html
Therefore, we need to apply the rule to select HK pilots in order to limit the total number of contestants to 50.
According to 2009 HK F3F league result
http://www.hkrcss.org/F3FGroup/league2009.jpg
Five HK pilots on the TR2010 registration list will unfortunately be removed from the list for the timing being; they are:
Alan Lau,
Philip Leung Chun Wai,
Lai Kwong Leung,
Albert Wong,
Clement Tsang

Sorry! Because we now have 29 overseas pilots, there may be one more place left for HK pilot, so we need to wait until August 8 this year league result. There is still a hope for you. However, since there may be some more registrations from oversea pilots, then, if this is the case, even the registered HK pilots who are now on the list may also be disqualified later. As far as I know, it is highly possibile as there are some European pilots who have shown interest to come.

I am sorry that we cannot satisfy all HK pilots. I hope that you guys would still be interested to help even you can not participate in TR2010 as contestants.

Thanks
Stanley

More update, just a new registration!

We have now 30 overseas pilots!
In that case,we have only 20 places qouta for HK pilots.
Final decision will be made after the registration deadline.

Cheers!

Don't worry. There are usually some cannot make it at the last moment So there is still hope.

It is ok, If there is no place for us to play, we may can help as CDs or helpers.

Albert, thanks for your understanding.
We definitely need helpers and even CD.
Ken will not be able to take up the CD post this time, so we are asking Y.C. whether he can help. If not we need you guys.

So, please give us some formal CD and setup training for the coming local races. We need to know every rules and arrangement to make sure no mistake happens in the TYPHOON RACE coz we may be too young.

Is there any other voluntee to be the CDs / Helpers now??

報名個勢咁踴躍...請問有無可能加多D名額呢???

2, 規則可以修改，但不影響 2010 年之國際賽出賽權。

We now have 32 overseas pilots!
In that case, we can only have 18 local pilots.
Anyway, if the number of local pilots is pushed down to 15, I will discuss with the Taiwanese team to see whether they can cut down their number as well.

It is very difficult to allow more than 50 pilots for the 3-day contest, simple mathematics;
each pilot needs about 2 minutes for each run, the total number of minutes needed for a round for 50 pilots is 100 minutes. If we have luck to have good wind, and from 9:00 am to 5:00pm per day, we can approximately get 4 rounds a day. The maximum total number of rounds we can have for a 3-day event is only 11 rounds! This assumes wind is consistently ok. Practically, it should be less. I think that is just good enough for overseas pilots paying high traveling expense to participate in the contest.

Sorry, we just can't increase the number further! Perhaps, for the Typhoon Race next year, we can propose to the organizer to consider lengthen the duration to 4 days, or if possible to run a two slope camp.
