[NSRCA-discussion] Worlds

[DaveL322]

Could have been 5049 every prior flight.
Weight can increase in humid conditions...especially if flying in the rain.
Wood and foam tires can absorb a lot of water.

There is a whole procedure they have to go thru if they initially fail, including using a second scale. That could take time. Let's hope he ultimately is OK.  Kind of weird that now he would fail, this late in the game.

>> Houston, looks like we have a problem.  Joseph put in some decent flights today but I've heard that he failed weight on Site 1 at 5052 g.  If that's true, his flight will be disqualified and probably knock him out of the top 10 as that was his better flight.  Joseph has worked his butt off.  What a crappy way to not make it.
