Well, lets not start any rumors until the club president, Wendell Hubbard, or 3dhs announce a change, as this changes things significantly for those planning to attend.

New to GSN!
The field rule is 100 DB at 10 feet. We have a meter and it only take a few seconds of run up to check.

This is not new and has been in place for many years. This is also the same limit used by IMAC at the time it adopted. It was in place for the four previous FLIs. While it is possible to fly any motor/exhaust/prop at some fields we have a limit to maintain a good relationship with our neighbors.

As a general rule you should have no problem staying within the limit with canisters and if you plan on flying at this field on a regular basis canisters are a very good idea. In fact I am not aware of any motor with canisters exceeding the limit.

If you are running some other setup we have been able to work with people to limit the throttle with ATV to a point that it passes. Also prop choice can make a very large difference in the amount of noise that a particular setup generates.

If you read the very long threads on previous FLIs at RCG the participants have always had very positive comments from their time at the event.

Now, lets spend more time talking about more important things like the raffle, blender chicken, night flying, etc.:flyer:
