So far I've heard of more great coaxials (~3:00) than chinooks.
mhm. Well this is also based on what I would do, and since I'm not going to nationals apparently what I would do isn't always correct ^.^

Well.
Knowing that California has a known 2:25 time, and that time I'm going to assume will be upped before nationals, and knowing that other states may also have impressive ones that weren't mentioned on this forum, I'd say a 2:40 time not including bonus will be king pin at nationals.

Note: this is entirely speculation.

I remember how last year I had my flight at States and then checked out the Heli forum, and was supprized to hear from some random guy for a different state how he has heard that top team in NY (us) got a 3+ minute helicopter. In reality, the flight was only 2:25. Thats what happens on Scioly often times, rumors, rumors :)

so thats why everything is speculation. Its what I would think given the information is true- which we don't always know is so

before or after the 3x bonus? If before, that's crazy good, if after, it's still really good for a chinook.

Must be before, based on his previous comment about getting 2:10 without the bonus. Phew, that's intense.

Maybe I might, even though it wouldn't be worth much compared to danyalukin's. It's not like I have anything to lose...

So you may or may not see in the near-ish future my chinook in the image gallery as an example of what not to do :roll:
