I would like to know what are the most common rules in a torque roll contest, since my club is trying to host one.

I think people should NOT use ailerons for TORQUE rolls. Exept for the anti-torque roll, where ailerons are needed.

Get it LOW!!! FAST!!! and make it look easy and stable!! And don't stop just Torque roll for as long as you can

Man I have not flown for like 2 months. building one and funtana 90 is retired for a replacement due to a little brother stepping on it.


I have lost my skill. I used to be able to TR but now it is dificult. I found out when I went to the LHS and did the sim.

good heavens I need practice!

Rules? There are stinkin rules.

if your going to do rules. well to prove that it is controlled . have it where you torque a while and then stop the torque roll once and then after the stop torque for length of time.. that will make it interesting and also will eleminate some people in a short amount of time when they fall out most likely

To add to Lee's comments and keep the competition stiff, mark the competition area with a circle on the field. To show control, hover in the designated area for a predetermined amount of time. Extra points for low to the ground or tail touches. Once hover is established and minimum time elapses go into a roll, with extra points for amount of rolls done. Then back into a hover to show control once more and fly out. All must be accomplished within the designated area. Members skill level will determine how large you want to make the competion area. Sounds like fun, wish I could see it. Joe
