This T3 round was really quite the thing. As such everybody gets a prize! Chris assures me that the 3DR T shirts are very cool. So far he has failed to produce an image of a bumpy jumper person wearing one to prove that is so.
As ever the trying was not without drama and has moved the code and thinking forward a little for all. That's what makes competitions so good for this community. Its why a hat needs to be tipped to all those brave enough to try.
The winning flight really was stunning from many angles. A great looking cube, very long flight time and all hands off to boot.
Top three prizes goto:-
1 Steve Westerfield, AutoQuad, longest loiter in each corner 42 minutes between 3 and 5 minutes at the corners
2 Aerhead, AutoQuad, a really great looking cube
3 Richard Boyhan APM, for trying so hard.
For his efforts Steve receives an APM 2.5, Aerhead and Richard uBlox GPS modules. Many thanks to 3DR for supplying these prizes.
Also entering and receiving a T Shirt for their flights

Cool!
I had a great time participating and going though the mission planner and mission execution details.
Congratulations to all participants and to the organizers for a "challenging challenge"! :)
Happy end!
Congratz to all participants, well done!
Looking forward to the next contest - with hopefully more entries from various systems.
Seeing Mario's APM perform with v2.9.2 it will get much harder for the competitors...
Great job guys, guess we all have something to learn from the AutoQuad guys, incredible results.
Wait til next year!
Sweet! Thanks Gary! I had a great time participating, looking forward to the next one.
