An Excel spreadsheet for managing
Thermal Duration & Precision Landing
RC Model contests

The idea of a tool to manage competition has came up to our mind when we realized that publicly available tools were not generating random groups of pilots properly. In fact, participants seem to fly repeatedly with the same ones too often.

Based on this observations we took on the challenge of developing a spreadsheet easy to use, with as little as possible use of macros and an algorithm that minimizes repetitions in the flight matrix, yet being flexible enough allowing the user to customize the matrix at any time.
