District V Report - 2003/11

Upper Cumberland Radio Control Society — Electric Fun-Fly

  • Contest Director (CD): Ronald Hankins
  • Location: Cookeville, Tennessee (field in the middle of a tree farm)
  • Event: Annual Electric Fun-Fly, open to all electric-powered aircraft
  • Format: Competitive events; some winners received plaque awards

Bob Mackie, an electronics whiz, used a digital camera to photograph the winners. He transferred the photos to a laptop, printed them in his car, and glued the detailed photo of each winner onto the plaque — done quickly and impressively.

Both the Middle Tennessee RC Society and the Upper Cumberland RC Society are our Clubs of the Month. Each club received a flag and will receive a framed plaque and enough cloth patches for every member to signify Club of the Month status.
