We were invited to the BEFA event at Middle Wallop over the weekend of the 27th June.   Steve and I went to demo F5B to the F5D guys and just to get in some practise on the course.  Thanks for BEFA for letting us crash their party.

 This is a video Darron took of the B1L flying from Base B.

We got some impressive speeds out of the planes - full details here.

2nd place went to an F5B model flown by Steve Burns also Neu and Extreme power and his run was 184.11 but the return was 138.94 so total of 158.4 but only 1 mph between our first runs.  (1512/1D/6.7 - 16x17 slim -5S)

3rd was another F5B flown by Alan Flockhart yet again Neu and Extreme power and his total was 153.1 mph so only 5 mph between them.  (1515/1D/6.7 - 17x18 Green +7 -5S)

We didn't expect the 1515 to be anywhere near as quick as the 1512 but there is a heck of a jump in speed when the motor comes on.

 Footage put together by Darron showing all the fast planes (except jets) at the event.
