TELEPRECENSE REMOTE CONTROL RACES

(Still on going planning for Races.)

The Moon Society Phoenix is still working on the Teleprecense Remote Control races.

Check this blog for details as they develop.

We are still discussing set-ups, rules, equipment and sponsorship rules at this time and it appears that the races wont occur until sometime in the late winter or early spring.

All races will be open to all comers, however, judging maybe bases on age and type (cost) of RV Car. If you prefer to buy your own car and practice for the races, then you will need a three (3) channel RC Car that can be purchased at Walmart, Target or another store. You will need a minature TV camera, a transmitter, a receiver and a device to display the picture from the Car so that you can practice driving the Car by use of the TV System only.

In the talking stages are basic racing, advanced races, and the Lunar Challenge, race heats may be run against the clock and/or one on one or more.

If you have comments and suggestions please make your comments to this blog or send them to me at portercd@msn.com Subject RC Racing.

Demonstrations of the Race Cars will be available at CopperCon32 at the Moon Society Outreach Table.

CROSS SOCIETY ASSISTANCE

All members of the Moon Society, the Mars Society, the National Space Society, the Planetary Society and any other Space based Society in the Valley of the Sun please feel free to make suggestions on how we may help each other meet our goals.

We should be working together to achieve our goals for Space Exploration and Development. As well as supporting the private sector in reaching for our place in Space. That place will require us to get there in the most cost effective way possible to do what needs to be done to protect our enviroment and species.

Without the group of us helping each other in our goals none of us will be able to generate the interest in what is need to succede in our aims.

For those that want to help please address your comments to me at portercd@msn.com.
I will post them to this blog and make sure to pass them onto the other groups.

Craig
