Your funniest (weirdest, craziest,…) moment as a F3B pilot?

A painful/expensive experience:
During a Speed Training Session one of my team mates was a bit late with pulling up his plane after finishing the (very fast) speed flight. The plane hit the nearby high voltage power lines and ended in a big fireball. All carbon parts delaminated, the RC-equipment did not survive the incident.

What is the most important thing a F3B rookie should know?

Trust your team mates, the best team is about to win.
