Default Vertical tail size getting smaller??

I take quite a few model airplane magazines and have noticed over the last couple of years that the size of the vertical tails on the pattern airplanes designs seems to have gotten really small, even to point of looking funny. I have tried to take into account camera angles and lenses, etc. I assume it has something to do with doing maneuvers that need a lot of yaw looseness but don't have a clue.

Am I right or just hallucinating again?

Merry Christmas to all,

Ben
