"The intent of IMAC is to fly scale planes in miniaturized IAC contests.
This isn't even close to reality. If it were, then we would fly 3 times at a contest. Once flying the Known as a sort of check out to make sure you are safe, once for your Free Program and then finally the Unknown. That's it. We would also not be wind correcting and a whole host of other things. Plus our planes would have more realistic power loadings too. But NONE of those things make us different from IAC, it is NOT having a pilot / panel. OK.
