Default RE: Pattern sequence designer?

There is something available using Visio on the IMAC side of the house. They use the FAI catalog for full scale stuff. This program will not and does not work for the Precision Aerobatics maneuvers other than simple stuff because our sequences don't follow the same rules as the Full scale stuff.

Check in the IMAC forum I know there is a program. Its very pricey like around $180 for the applet then you have to have Visio. This was the last I saw of it. Perhaps things have changed in the last year or so.

I was looking at it because of the F3A unknown sequences. There is a list of maneuvers that can be used. Many of these are not in the program and there are lots more that are not allowed in an F3A Unknown. Difference in the unknowns in F3A and an IMAC style event...The pilots pick the unknowns one maneuver at a time. There are certain rules you have to follow but the sequence is developed by the finalists. Its actually a very cool setup and the sequences can be quite fun and entertaining. On the other side they can become quite difficult as well.
