Sounds like what Stephane was having problems with. Some of his uploaded but didn't appear on the web site.

I like to do a morning flight to get used to the sequence of powering up the devices and my Bluetooth. This also helps in learning the turnpoints and making sure things are in trim to fly straight hands off.



The only uploads I had problems with were Chenango. It was listed as scale class but we had a sport class course to fit out no fly zones. And I was the only one uploading. It shows the uploads and Lapa bur no status for individual pilots.

Try uploading you igc file to one of the online viewers.

Hey guys, was a blast to see you all in Cumberland and fly the hill. Spent more time trying to get my maiden ready and complete on my Diana 2 than flying GPS and figuring out the electronics and volumes etc. lol. Anyhow did a bunch of laps finally but don't recall how to upload to traingle league? I am registered at the league and pushed the upload button on one flight on my Albatross, but I don't see it online? when I pushed it second time it said already uploaded....any thoughts of advice for this newbie?

thanks
Matt

Big lift at Cumberland. I had one circle where it reported 3.8 m/s, about 750 fpm.

Probably should have changed it to sportclass. I uploaded some flights but I can't see the numbers on the site.

MIke L posted this in the event thread as well... The course has been adjusted to use the Sport Class task. That way the course and some space for turns all fit within the field boundaries So the triangle distance is 350M instead of 500M and the entry altitude limit is 400M. The task on the web site has been updated.

Event task has been updated to respect zoning

No pilots attempting the course in Kansas?

My flights were on both my Foka 4 and my Orlik. Yes I did get 5 laps out of the Orlik which actually can get 3 laps from launch in neutral air.

You need a fully reclining seat and a copilot to operate it so you can fly closer to the course line near the start/finish.
The other thing to remember is a lot of times you are flying crosswind. So the model is going to drift..
