Thanks Ricardo Ribeiro for supporting us!

FLY-IN is in Warsaw with our boys! Team Element are currently in a comfortable 6th place with a few more rounds to go... keep on going 🤘

Update: Round 6 and 7 are judged as well.
Round 6 was a faster round as predicted. We were a bit rough but still managed a good 22-1=21 points. De judges saw a lot of imperfections at the other teams. Our Polish friends from Fly Definition Polish VFS Team got the hardest hit with 30-8=22 points. That will definitely cost them their third place. Too bad.

The 7th round started with an brainfart in our team (beer!) but after that we were focussed again and turned a nice 19-1=18 points. Currently we have a 20 points average but Sdc Core is scoring a whopping 30,85 AVG !!!

Tomorrow at 10h00 we have our final round. Lots of sitfly so not really fast.

Update: During our last round yesterday we had a good round but we invented a new random: the "special" K.
That costed us 3 points, otherwise we would have had 19 points.
Today we had a good 5th round outscoring the Canadian team in front of us by 1 point.

The race for the 3rd place is a nice one to see!
Team Golden Knights Vertical Program GKVP had an excellent round taking 6 (!) points on the Polish team putting them ahead by 4 points.

Lets see what round 6 brings as this should be a faster one as well...

We are having fun anyway :)

Update: Round 2 and 3 done!

Round 2 we had a clean round with 25 points despite the slower engineering. Top 4 all scored 34 and higher but could even have scored more if it was cleaner.

Happy anyway.

Round 3 was another story for us :(

We started really really fast and then a brainlocker (somebody will have to pay beer tonight :) ) that got us out of our rhythm. Let's hope the damage is limited.

In about 45 minutes we will do our 4th and last round for today.

Then D2W will start with for the first ever a Belgian Team Airspace Power in a Class 1 FAI event. Go Magali and Jonas!

First round done. A fast one, 13 - 14 - 7 (only head-down).
Amazing to see the level of the teams, wow this goes fast.

We had no speed checking round yesterday due to our late arrival so we guessed that 97% should be enough to keep us in the air :)

Round didn't go superfast but I heard some people saying smooth so lets keep it to that.

The other teams varied from fast to superduperfast. Curious what the judges will make of it.

Next round in 1,5h.

Great shot by Ricardo Ribeiro

For those determined to fly, having no wings is just a little detail.
