I am referencing the following in the Game Manual:

MISSION 2026 TIME WARP COMPETITION MANUAL PILOTING SKILLS MISSION

b. Phase Two.

i. Fly through the Fly Through Panel (See )

ii. Optional Bonus: While completing Phase Two, fly through the Small Hole for additional points (See )

Note: The Small Hole Bonus can be earned each time Phase Two is completed.

Fly through Panel.

A Drone is considered to have flown through the Fly-Through Panel when:

a. The Drone enters through one of the circles on the front of the Fly-Through Panel.

b. The Drone has flown out of one of the circles on the right or left side and Cleared the Fly-Through Panel.

Earn Small Hole Bonus.

A Team earns the Small Hole Bonus when the Drone uses only the small holes of the Fly-Through Panel to complete the tasks of

Question: If going through the small holes in the fly through panels (front and side) during the flight path, does that count as:

Phase 2: 10pts

Small hole front: 10pts

Small hole side: 10pts

Or do you have to complete the flight path for Phase 2 in its entirety to then come back around the fly through panel to get points for the small hole?

Additionally, because you can go through the small hole for bonus points during phase 2 does that mean you can circle around to do as many small holes you can before moving on to Phase 3?

There are two parts to your question.

Part 1

To earn the Small Hole Bonus, you must complete the Fly Through Panel task using only the small holes.
A team will earn 10 bonus points*for flying through both small holes (this is not awarded per hole).

During piloting, you will earn 10 points for flying through the panel (Phase 2) and an additional 10 points if you complete the task using only the small holes.

Part 2
Per The Flight Path must be done in order; once Phase 2 is complete, you must proceed to Phase 3.
