Welcome to the BMFA Slope Nationals and BMFA League 4
EPP60 webpage
It doesn’t get
more exciting than this!
Three, Four or even Five models with a maximum wingspan
of 60” racing against each other over
10 laps of a 70m course along the slope edge. Flagmen at the far
pylon signal when a model has
passed this point and can return down the course.With up to five models
competing for the best
racing line, incidents can and DO happen.The models though are made from
crash resistant
Expanded Polypropylene foam which helps them to withstand some of
the rough and tumble involved
in racing. Sometimes the rough and tumble is just too much though
which is when a back up model
is a good idea!

EPP60 is all about fun and close racing and all safe and competent
fliers are welcome to come along
and have a go. You do need to be a BMFA member though. Don't worry if you've never raced before
as there will be
plenty of friendly encouragement and advice to help you along throughout the day.
