RareBear RACING Competition
30 RareBears and their pilots competed in the World's first ever racing competition for stock E-Flite RareBears on 6S at Stow Maries Aerodrome, Chelmsford, UK. Qualifying heats of 10 laps around a 3 pylon course before semi-finals and a final. Several crashes during the day. The wind did catch out several pilots and some just pushed too darn hard. Great prizes for the top 10 places from Horizon Hobby who sponsored the event. Looking forward to more of this in the future...

Re: RareBear RACING Competition
Yikes! Talk about dyslexia.
The Bear is always one of my faves, but doubt they would let me include my nitro version in this mayhem.

Re: RareBear RACING Competition
Thanks for posting this. Looks like a great event.
It sure is a fantastic airplane to fly. My favourite this past summer! Daren

Re: RareBear RACING Competition
Looks like fun! Why do they have to put the crap music on videos? Some of us like to hear the planes.....

Re: RareBear RACING Competition
HA HA! That is crazy and probably a ton of fun.
Reminds me of the indoor Micro-P51 races they did a few years back

Re: RareBear RACING Competition
Looks like crazy fun. Even if it wasn't organized racing, would be a hoot to get a few up in the air and chase each other around. Done it with the Habus and more recently with the HK Rare Bear racer. It's about half the size of the Eflite but a ton of fun for 90 bucks.
