Rocketeer Log In/Out

Quadrathon 

We will fly Quadrathon Wednesday from the Sport Range. Each contestant can only enter one model, which must remain unchanged except for recovery system between flights. You must fly the following 4 event as single flights each in the prescribed order. If you disqualify from any event or cannot continue because your model is destroyed, you will receive 0 for the event score for that event. The event will be held with altimeters for the Payload portion, and 'bring your own timers' for the timing events and bring your own measuring buddy for the Spot Landing Portion. Like all fun events, this event earns medals but no official NAR points. 

B Payload (with altimeters): Your model must hold a standard NAR Payload and an altimeter. The Event Score is (Altitude in Meters + 1).

A Streamer Duration: Steamer duration with A impulse. The Event Score is (Duration in Seconds + 1).

A Parachute Duration: Parachute duration with A impulse. The Event Score is (Duration in Seconds + 1).

Spot Landing: Spot will be chosen Wednesday morning. The Event Score is (51 - meters from spot). If your rocket lands more than 50 meters from the spot, it will score as 50 and get a 1 for the event score.

Overall, we will multiply the 4 event scores together to determine the winners. Building a model that can survive 4 flights with different missions is the goal.
