As if I had a chance anyway
Don't worry so much about the size of your plane .Ask Randy ...last year at our contest I beat Randy with his own airplane :P (Thanks Randy ) Anyways it was a 28% giles 300 (74 inch WS moki powered) and I had no real trouble flying through the intermediate sequence with it . IMO with a lot of practice you could even compete in advanced with a plane that size , given the right conditions. Just keep flying it , practice,practice and more practice . More often than not, we simply beat ourselves when we compete .

25%- 28% are good flying planes , just practice.
