F3K is simple: take a small RC-glider, throw it in the air and have fun 😉
Well, you might expect to read a lot about F3K here, but the best way to get an impression about F3K is to watch this nice video from the F3K World Championship 2013 in Denmark:
Several competitions can be held per country. Only the best result from this country is included in the Eurotour ranking.
The pre-competition for a European Championship or a World Championship is an exception. Since a greatly expanded field of participants can be expected, these competitions are included in the result list, even if a second competition takes place in the same country.
In order to take into account the sometimes very different number of participants, a bonus (called number of places) will be added from 2023, depending on the number of participants.
This number of places results from the number of pilots ranked behind the participant with a valid rating (greater than 0 points) divided by 10.
An example: The winner in Nancy 2022 would then receive 101.6 points instead of 100 points (because 16 pilots were behind him). The winner of the World Championship pre-competition receives 107.4 points (because 74 pilots were behind him). Of course, every other participant also gets this number of places. Depending on how many pilots are behind him. Up to the penultimate. Up to the penultimate. He only gets 0.1 points as a bonus.
Mario Brandner, born 1965. He lives in Salzburg, Austria. Model pilot since 1977. At first active in the competition classes F3F and F3B. Then for a long time „only“ hobby model pilot. And now for several years active again in the classes F5L, F3K and F5J.
Achim Streit handed over the task of Eurotour team manager F3K to me. I hope I can continue his work well.
