Beverages are very forgiving to such circumstances but I would think that C would be the best choice. I have used such a Beverage in the past exactly like this and found the performance on TB to be adequate.

Hello

How terrain slopes affect the performance of a beverage?

For example, a 800 ft long beverage, with different ground conditions:

a) the land at that distance of 800 feet go down and up, from a height of
400 feet ASL where beverage start, at half the beverage is at a height of
300 feet ASL and begins climbing to 400 feet ASL at the end of the beverage

b) the land at that distance of 800 feet rises from a height of 300 feet ASL
where the beverage start to 400 feet ASL where the beverage finish

c) the land at that distance of 800 feet go down from a height of 400 feet
ASL where the beverage start to 300 feet ASL where the beverage finish

Option a) will result in a bad beverage performance?

What about options b) and c)?

Thanks,

Jorge
