Your right. The Unknown wasnt that big of a deal. The Zero I got was!!
Havent seen the scoresheets yet but I am thinking they may have zero'ed my tailslide. It flopped the correct way but, it was very questionable if it slid backwards.

Just got tomorrow's Unknown.
Its the same geometry as the Invitational Unknown for tomorrow (except for the 45's on their Hammerheads) with different elements on some figures.
Ours is 422K and theirs is 471K

Had to pull up short a little due to time. Single sequence round after freestyle for only Intermediate and Advanced, Sportsman and Unlimited will do a single sequence round Saturday afternoon.

Other than Seths problem today, smooth day.

Mike,

Some info for you and the others about the airplane Quique has at Clover Creek. First, it is NOT a Python. This one is Ti-12. Ti-12 is a full size airplane we are now finishing up. The Ti-12 is based on our full scale Pitts Model 12 two seat design that we build and offer as kits. Python was the name we gave to ONE airplane not a type or style of airplane. Ti-12 is a name we have given to this ONE airplane. Not all monoplanes are extras and not all biplanes are Pitts.

The QQ airplane in the photos is a special "2 of a kind" Ti-12 model (primary and back up) and is powered by a DA200 on new MTW pipes. It is a work of art and Quique is very happy with it. QQAC has not yet specified the sizes of the ARF Ti-12 they will offer. I don't know what size he is thinking of making. For now, congrats to Quique and all those who made the airplane possible for a cool debut at Clover Creek!

Thanks Wayne and co. for keeping us posted. It's hard enough to concentrate on your flying let alone answer a billion questions.
Seth sorry about the wing thing. I'm sure you seen the picture Hubb took. It looks so wrong.
