There are other variations you could add to it to make it even more interesting...

1) Establish a target circle somewhere down range. Any model landing in the circle gets an automatic deduction from the clock. The idea is to make an incentive for people to make flights that travel away from the pad - no super-draggy-barely-off-the-pad kinds of flights. And making people run, means eating becomes more challenging.

2) Another idea is to do it as a relay race. Contestants are paired. The first flight is timed according to LeMans Start rules, the payload is recovered, transferred to the second model (in the gallery area) and then flown a second time. The second contestant eats the payload on return. Consider pairing the contestants randomly. We did a lot of this kind of "mix 'em up" stuff in the early days of MRFF, guaranteeing people getting to know new people.
