It could probably be arranged, but be there early. Doors will open at 6am, scale would fly officially from 8am. You would have to defer to competitors and I might ask for a donation to help defray the costs. The day in the Armory costs me over $500.
If CO2 is of interest to you, please pursue it. Modelers tend to welcome other modelers with open arms even if they don't fly the same classes. You have me reminiscing about an old Waco scale model with a Telco motor on it that flew beautifully. I wonder what ever happened to that model/plan...
Regards.
