The “Human Spaceflight” contest is basically an altitude contest to commemorate one of the ultimate achievements of Human Spaceflight, landing on the Moon in 1969.

Type:

Scale/Sport-Scale

Classes:

Open to low power and high power with separate prizes. There will be one set of prizes for the highest 3 LPR entries and one set for the highest 3 HPR entries. Only one entry per class, per flyer, will be counted. You may enter multiple times per class, but we will just use the highest of the entries.

Qualification:

The list of acceptable models are: Vostock, Mercury-Redstone, Mercury-Atlas, NA X-15, Voskhod, Gemini-Titan, Soyuz, Apollo-Saturn IB, Apollo-Saturn V, Apollo-LEM, Space Shuttle, Shenzhou, or Spaceship One/Two. Models must be in the Human Spaceflight configuration (i.e. no ICBM versions).
