Difference between knowns and unknowns are this............. There are 3 SET KNOWN manuevers ( KE sequence, diamond loop seq, and a snapping seq.) that the judges MUST see during the known round. The unknown is like flying a freestyle at a local IMAC contest. But XFC is where it all hangs out!!! Yes, it is ALL freestyle!!! Check out the VIDS!!!!

I for one, am estatic to see Gernot climb up to 4th!!! That kid can fly the Shiznizzle out of an airplane!!! HE really deserved to win that round!!! Good job!!!! Get the kid some FG swag!!!

Max is just a baddass!!!! It really SUX that he couldn't broadcast from there!!! I heard from him that his connection was better than he has ever had....... Talking TV quality stuff!!!

Ido flew great, He was a real class act. I did get to meet him briefly, and he is a great ambassador for the hobby.

I heard that there was one plane that went in before I got there on Friday. I'm not sure on who or what.

There were a couple of choppers balled up yesterday afternoon. The heli guys were rocking and putting on one hell of a show. The ones that went in were flying great they just pushed it a little too Low. I did get a photo of one, after the fact.
