Default Full Scale is getting closer

RICEC5

In competition, Pattern and IMAC sequences (maneuvers) are still the same, and sequences is still the primary segment of the contest. The only difference is in the Freestyle side, now with planes created with light components and engines so powerful and reliable that the planes are able to do this new kind of aerobatics.

3D style flying was first introduced by Quique Somenzini from Argentina at the TOC in the mid 90's.

Full Scale aerobatic aircraft is getting closer. Some now are doing pop-ups or "The Wall" 3D maneuver and others hovering for a few seconds. but not yet as us .

Everything evolve, including RC Model Airplanes...
