    @theflyinghillbilly
    When calculating an average you should divide by the amount of numbers you are calculating the average of. So you should divide by three in this case.

    I let your plane fly 3 runs through the course. I got 2:30, 2:28 and 2:29 as times. Resulting in an average of 2:29. Dare I ask how you calculate averages? @theflyinghillbilly

    that's because i did three runs and calculated the average, which i believe is to be most accurate.@Champ9961

    On the tournament page you said this gets a 2:00 run but when I tested it it only got a 2:40 run
