SGDC Summer BQE/GQ - Jul 20th (Sun)

SGDC's Summer BQE. At the minimum a combined GQ also, but could be something bigger - more info coming soon!

We've been granted our local variation: Fastest 3 consecutive laps qualifying into 3 lap mains with RD discretion on lap count rather than algorythmic.

MultiGP and BRDA craft specification differ slightly when you get into the realms of 7 inch props - if you would like to run to MultiGP spec, you may not be eligible for BQE qualification/Mains. If you are flying a common 5” or 6” racing craft, you need not worry.
(MultiGP 305mm Motor to Motor and no prop size limit, 800g AUW | BDRA 300mm Motor to Motor 6 inch max prop size)

If you are unsure on anything or have any questions, feel free to message us at SGDC on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/southglosrc) or on Discord (https://discord.sgdc.co.uk).

Timing and Event Format

Our event will be run using an ImmersionRC LapRF timing system linked to Livetime. We will also endeavour to live stream our event to YouTube with the usual LiveFPV updating all day so that you can easily keep track of the standings. We will be using an authorised modified BDRA BQE race format (qualifying rounds leading into triple finals for all mentioned above).

On Site Facilities 

Our onsite Cafe/Bar will be open all day serving a range of hot/cold food and drinks. 

We have great toilets & facilities with onsite parking, lots of comfy cafe space & sheltered stadium seating.

Venue capacity for mains charging is available within reason.

Entry Fee

Entry fee is £32 and there will be a £2 discount with BDRA membership. This contributes to funding our venue, equipment and resources allowing us to continue hosting the events you know us for, all year round.

Refund Policy

In the event of a rained off / cancelled race day we will offer a 50% refund.

If you cancel your place we will do our best to fill it from the reserve pilots list, if we fill the spot we will refund you minus PayPal fees (4%).
