Radio Control Scale Aerobatics - 2004/03
NEXT YEAR, 2005, marks AMA’s three-year rules cycle change
and implementation of AMA’s new competition rules. For the
majority of Scale Aerobatics competitors, that cycle, affecting
International Miniature Aerobatic Club (IMAC), is significant. A
total of 16 new rules will be added to IMAC, and some of them
will completely change the way we fly our airplanes in
competition.
Radio Control Scale Aerobatics - 2006/02
New qualifying procedures for, and results from, the Tucson Aerobatic Shootout
Project Extra Volume IV: Controlling Systems
IN PROJECT EXTRA Volume IV, it’s time to power up the beast.
We’ll install the components that will move the control surfaces,
power the aircraft, and power the electronics in the airplane. For
those of you not building the model, there is a great deal of useful
information about servo and control setup and geometry that can
help any modeler build a better control system.
RADIO CONTROL SCALE AEROBATICS - 2004/11
WHEN YOU’RE OUT at the field flying, sometimes it’s nice to
know that you can find a fellow modeler who is knowledgeable and
willing to give you reliable advice. That’s why the people in the team
shirts are there. When you see other modelers wear team shirts, that’s
your invitation to ask them questions and discuss the products they
support. They are sponsored because of their ability and willingness to
help, along with a desire to promote the products they believe in.
2002 Tournament of Champions
BY NOW THOSE of you who follow Radio Control (RC)
precision aerobatics know that Chip Hyde was the winner of the
2002 Tournament of Champions (TOC) Scale precision aerobatics
contest, held October 9-13 in Las Vegas, Nevada. But what the rest
of the RC community may not know is how the TOC has affected
nearly every aspect of the RC aircraft hobby for the last 25 or so
years, and the significance of this contest each time it is held.
