Hummingbird Model Products will be at Fab Feb
From: Bernard Guest
Hi Sen Master,
I Bernard Guest (hummingbird Model Products) will be at Fab Feb with some goodies. I will have band burner timers and batteries, E36 timers, Lipo chargers (USB type for single cell batteries ranging from 500 Mah to 20 Mah), Balsa strippers, My new pitch gauge (also upgrade kits for older model pitch gauges) and my new blast shield for stooges (prevents those annoying line tangles), blast shield for coup winders (Blazeyvitch type – the shield slides onto the torque meter housing). Also if folks want to order a kit and have me bring it to the field for Hand to hand delivery they should get in touch now so that I have time to make their order.
Finally, if you could pass this along to the Ike AMA/SAM organizers so that they can distribute to their competitors that would be appreciated.
I will be in the Canadian RV on the field for the entire contest (Feb2 – Feb 17). Drop by for a chat.
Bernard

2019 Final American Cup Scores and Report
With December Arizona Champs now being the last AmCup contest for the year, the final AmCup report can be reported in 2019. Six of the ten events had repeat winners from 2018 and the other 4 winners this year placed fourth or higher last year. This I believe is largely due to the high flying excellence of theses competitors but I’m also seeing a decrease in the number of excellent flyers perusing the AmCup win. Last year two flyers traveled and won at the December Eloy AZ Champs and so won first in their AmCup event. Per the last AmCup report, there were three first place possible changes at the 2019 AZ Champs, none of those with a shot at first place traveled to AZ this year. Perhaps it was post World Champs depleted energy, money and time.
Over the last few years, I have mentioned that perhaps it’s time to restructure the AmCup. Within SCAT, there was no strong movement for change. This along with likely significant life changes for me, we have decided to keep the 2020 AmCup the same.
Congratulation to the 2019 Am Cup winners. In the following ranking, the placing in parentheses are the flyer’s 2018 AmCup placing.
F1A 1st Jim Parker (second)
F1B 1st Alex Andriukov (first)
F1C 1st Faust Parker (first)
F1P 1st Hayden Ashworth (third)
F1G 1st Tiffaney O’Dell (first)
F1H 1st Blake Jensen (first)
F1J 1st Faust Parker (first)
F1Q 1st Ben Tarcher (third)
F1E 1st Tom Ioerger (fourth)
F1S 1st Jack Murphy (first)
High time Juniors are Noa Goldstein (F1A) and Hayden Ashworth (F1P).
The 2019 AmCup Award Banquet will again be done on Saturday night of the MaxMen – Bob White International at the Wonderful Park Recreation Room as in the last few years.
Feb 15, 20120. Doors open at 6:30pm for beer and wine, food at 7:30pm. Awards at 8:30pm
The 2019 winners be sure to indicate that fact on the website entry form (see SEN website) for your free banquet dinner. 2018 winners need to be sure your plaque is properly engraved and to put a shine on the perpetual trophies and deliver them to the banquet. 2018 winners that repeated in 2019 can forgo bringing the perpetual trophy if you wish. This would minimize wear to the trophy and ease your logistics. We’ll borrow one the trophies there for photos.
In addition to the 1st place perpetual trophies, per tradition, custom – unique 1st place trophies are given to the ten first place winners. While looking for new trophy ideas I learned a new genre— Steampunk! Fourth through fifth place winners get a certificate.
Congratulation to the 2019 AmCup Winners.

The First West Wyalong National Championships
Australian News …
At the recent half yearly Presidents conference a full MAAA Nationals was not broadly supported and has been cancelled for April 2020. This was recently confirmed by our MAAA President. Neil Tank.
However, there will be a Major Event at West Wyalong called ‘The First West Wyalong National Championships to be held during the period 7-15 July 2020.
The NSWFFS will, with the assistance of the Control Line Society, coordinate this Major Event. Other interested parties currently include SAMs, F5J & F5B & Electric OT. The draft event schedules are currently being reviewed. They will be published in the New Year.
Any other special interest group interested in participating in this Major Event should contact me as soon as possible as I will need finalise their scheduling and make the appropriate field bookings.
Please distribute this email a widely as possible.

Weighty matters
From:john carter
In reply to Peter Browns concern for which I agree .
If weight is an answer make the rules to read that a model must have a min weight with out ballast as now but must carry a ballast block of size dimensions and be of set weight and this ballast must be inert and provide no other function other than add weight to model,ie a piece of lead or other specified heavy metal
Depleted plutonium may be.
