DM Indoor Kunstflug 2024 - F3P-Expert - Andreas Wildauer (AUT)

F3P-Expert (FAI F3P-AP ) flown in hall with a ceiling of just 7 meters, making it more difficult for the pilots, especially those who normally practise in higher halls.

My God, what beautiful, precision flying! 🙂
I used to compete in Pattern flying back in the days of glow engines; I had a "FOCUS" 2-meter aircraft, powered by a YS-FS-140Z, Great when the YS was running properly, but horribly cantankerous in cold weather (forget about flying in any temperatur less than 45 degrees F.!) . I had a few successes at the "Basic" level, taking a couple of 1st & 2nd place trophies, but didn't go past the Intermediate level. I quit competiton after one contest where everything went wroung short of a crash; cracked the landing gear on the Focus due to the runway (this particular club had their runway atop an old landfill, & it sploed UP! - As a result, my usual landing flare wan't sufficien). 🥺 Did a quick makeshift repair on the landing gear, but then the YS got cantankerous & started running rough; by the end of the contest I was a nervous wreck, decided that it wasn't "fun" anymore, & quit competing. I still fly for fun, mostly electric park flyer4s & UMX planes now.
VERY interesting aircraft design with the contr-rotating props! (No torque effects!). 😎
