IMAC which has been what I have invested most time in is actually modeled after the full scale IAC and shares the same maneuver catalog. The judging criteria is the same as well so in fact we do try to emulate full scale aerobatics as closely as we can. That doesn't mean that I should put up with the same pitch couple when rudder is applied that the full scale Extra 300 exhibits. 3D is a different animal all together then IMAC
