Any other times over 2:10? What was the design of the winning helicopter? 4 Blade rotor upper and 2 blade lower? Single motor stick? Hollow tube motor stick? Two sticks on the side with the motor down the middle? Did they use thick (1/8") rubber or thinner 1/32" or less) We are stuck at 2 minutes.

what do you think the winning time at nationals will be?

Winning team just broke 3 minutes. Competition was in racquet ball courts.

Top time was 3:05, 15 teams were over 2:00. 45 teams were over 60 seconds.
There weren't any particularly crazy or unique designs, all were generally conventional. There will be a new wrinkle thrown in next year to mix it up and give you all a new challenge.

Any thoughts on what that will be? Hints amongst scioly.org friends

(The Chinook thing definitely kept me working tirelessly for the entire year)

Not yet, still hammering out details.

Marie Murphy was able to get a time of 3:05, winning Nationals. Solon got just below 3 minutes, getting 2nd place at Nationals

We got 1:16, and got 41st. We were never really competitive in Helicopters, as my partner and I, the same one for Meteorology, really should have stuck with study events.
