What is F3L?

Control is limited to rudder, elevator and spoiler — RES. The launch uses a bungee system; flight time and a spot landing make up the score.

Competition control for F3L

Start order draw, result entry at the line and scoring to FAI rules, usable offline on a phone, tablet or laptop. The manual explains how a contest day runs. The practice competition lets you rehearse it without consequences: 54 invented participants in six teams, five groups in the duration task, and it disappears by itself after 48 hours.
