Focus on Competition
Technical Director Steve Kaluf
AS REQUIRED by the Competition Regulations, we are publishing the 2005 sequences for RC Scale Aerobatics. This time we have chosen to include the written descriptions as well as the diagrams.
I encourage you to visit the IMAC (International Miniature Aerobatic Club) Web site — www.mini-iac.com — for more information and excellent articles about the sequences.
Till next time ... MA
