Participants will be allowed to launch within the two classes referenced either by hi-start, winch or e-power to altitude determined by the CD.
The task will be to fly a 4-minute (or as revised by the CD based on conditions) duration with 240 possible points available (4 x 60 seconds) for achieving duration and another 100 points for landing within a 10 meter circle.
