Re: Michigan Fliers
Just a little light on the issues with charging at my contest:
There won't be any issues as far as charging where you want. As long as you have a proper charging "bunker" of some sort, then the club won't have a problem with you charging under the pavilion. We will have extentions all throughout the field and we shouldnt have a need for a generator. We have 5 circuit breakers, each rated at 10Amps. Assume Catering uses one, that leaves 4800 watts. If chargers are drawing 14 volts (to be safe), that's a total of 342 amps available. So if everyone is a power hog and charge at 10 amps, ONLY 34 chargers going at a time! I guess what I'm saying, is there will be no problem. As a guideline, we will require that there are no more than 8 chargers on any one circuit breaker. However, if anyone NEEDS a generator, I will have a my 3000 watt generator and there a bunch of members that have offered to bring theirs just as Ken did.
I've attached a flyer which has the rest of the info.
Andrew:
I'd really love to have you come to the event it would really help make this first year a big success. If possible, would you be willing to fly some type of demo at about noon??
Thanks a ton guys and I'm really looking forward to the contest!! |
