guys who grew up on the old pattern flying can give you some good help
- we used to practice flying it from horizon to horizon as far as you could see the thing
Here is my new IMAC plane -and it really does nice slow rolls
Dick...as far as I know (I may be mistaken), the side force generator is not allowed in any class above Sportsman in IMAC, since the "full-scale brothers" have not used them in competition as yet.
At the Don Lowe Masters over this week, Mark Leseberg had side force generators on his Dalton Extra 300 & they were not allowed in the contest. They had to be dismantled. However, at the end of the contest, Mark did a demo & the airplane was noticeably more stable in the knife-edge position & tracked very well. I think you will see these on the market very shortly from Horizon Hobbies.
