is it suposed to be fun ???

Gazz it's the most fun you can have standing up !!

I think your right, The simpler it is, the easier it is to enjoy it and it can still be very competitive especially in FFC. I guess the other classes do offer different things that's why there are the other classes. It is all great fun tho' and that's main thing !!

F3D is a really demanding class the engines are finicky and very specialised but they put out heaps of herb and they go quick!!
This video should give you an idea of what it's all about and why the MAAA put a few dollers into supporting Aussies in international competitions. It's a good watch !!
