Catapult Glider Landing Contest

[@GrandadIsAnOldMan]

You could get very complicated with the rules to ensure nobody just points it straight down at the 100 point circle. How about bonus points for every second in the air but only count if the glider lands in a scoring circle. So a 10 second flight landing in the 5 zone gives you 15. Maybe even multiply the seconds by the landing zone. So 10 second flight landing on the 100 zone gives you 1000 points. Getting carried away now so I will stop :-)

Spot on, Grandad! You’re reading our minds! We thought about that idea and we’ll have to try it in practice. Each zone can certainly have a different multiplication factor applied to the number of seconds in flight. Thanks for the suggestion! 😊

Another great video I can’t believe how fast your channel is growing already at 400 congrats I remember when you were on 30 subs well done 😁

[@NighthawkGliders]

Thanks again, Riley... yeah, growth seems steady and we are year old now! Wow, time flies as do our Gliders! 😀

[@StacemanFPV]

That was a lot of fun to watch! Definitely tricky to do.

[@NighthawkGliders]

Thanks, Stace Man... 'tis fun and friendly competition between brothers! We'll craft some more competitions down the road. Thanks for watching. 😊

[@StacemanFPV]

Obvious choices would be longest in the air... farthest distance... maybe another target one, but you are forced to launch from the same spot.... maybe one where you have 2 or 3 each and you have to launch them all in the air, and see who can keep them all going without letting them hit the ground.. you have to catch and re-launch :D

[@NighthawkGliders]

Ha ha, nice! You have *perfectly* read our mind. All of are these we ARE planning on doing! 😀 I love the suggestions. We are always open to them!

[@StacemanFPV]

Nice!

[@MilanKarakas]

I like your "Olympic" idea. Maybe we can have a decathlon of 10 glider events and keep a running score. 👍
