Thunder Power RC is excited to announce that Team Pilot Jamie Robertson wins the Helicopter Class at the 2011 International Extreme Flight Championships (XFC) with the dual port TP820CD Charging System and G6 Pro Power 65C series batteries.

Thanks to the skills and talent of Team Pilot Jamie Robertson, Thunder Power RC brings home the 2011 Championship title in the Helicopter Class of the International Extreme Flight Championships. This win marks the third consecutive, back-to-back XFC win for Thunder Power RC and a second career XFC victory for Robertson. In the 2011 competition, fourteen pilots competed for the title of Champion in the Helicopter Class. With this win, Jamie now holds two XFC Championships and is one of only two pilots to win more than one XFC. Fellow TPRC pilot Nick Maxwell joined Jamie at the podium with a second place finish. In fact, three of the top four helicopter class finishes were powered by Thunder Power RC batteries and chargers with Bobby Watts finishing in 4th place overall. Thunder Power RC is proud to bring home a third consecutive XFC Heli Class win and to be power behind Jamie Robertson, Nick Maxwell and Bobby Watts XFC top place finishes.

The XFC is an invitational event with thirteen invited pilots and five spots open in each category for on-site tryouts. The three day event took place June 3-5, at the AMA National Flying Site in Muncie, Indiana. The preliminary competition took place on Friday and Saturday with four flight rounds (2 per day). These rounds consisted of one known flight including three required maneuvers and one pilot’s choice/unknown round a day. Sunday was reserved for the final round of the competition for the top seven pilots. The finals are 4 rounds of competition with two rounds of known and two rounds of unknown maneuvers. The event is scored by taking the pilot’s top score from each type of final round (known and unknown maneuvers) and adding them to their average score carried over from the preliminary flight rounds.

World-class, top talent competes head-to-head each year at the XFC. This year Jamie Robertson competed with his electric Mikado Logo 600 helicopter against the field of 13 other pilots. Jamie’s Mikado Logo 600 3D electric setup included Scorpion 560Kv motor (12 tooth pinion), a Thunder Power RC 10S 5000mAh G6 Pro Power 65C battery providing power to his mini V-bar system. Also in the winning setup included JR servos, Edge blades, Spektrum tail servo regulator and Spektrum satellite receivers. Backing up the power for Jamie’s performance was the Thunder Power RC TP820CD dual port charging system. When asked about the performance at XFC, Jamie commented:

“I was using the Thunder Power G6 Pro Power 65C batteries with a couple hundred cycles on them and the most important part of the event is consistent power and performance. Thunder Power batteries have always been able to provide the consistent power necessary for me to not have to worry about getting through all the maneuvers. Not once did I experience bog or struggle due to inconsistent LiPo performance. In fact, my G6 TPRC batteries performed the same at the beginning of the flight as they did at the end of the flight with no drop off in power.”
