Well I just registered for my first IMAC event being held June21, 22 at our club field in Hamilton, OH. Thanks to bubbagates for writing the narrative and providing all these good tips. I will work on getting a throttle curve set up in my radio like he described and getting the plane trimmed out. I don't have what is really considered an IMAC plane, it's the GP Giant Aeromaster. There is another guy on the club with one and I hope he gives IMAC a try as well. One other club member other than our CD has registered.

Do you guys switch to high rates for some of the maneuvers such as high rate rudder for the hammerhead and 360 turn, and maybe both rudder and elevator for the spin? Even I know it's much more difficult to mainain smooth flying with more deflection on the surfaces.

Last year there was video of a guy flying the entier basic sequence. Hopefully someone has posted one for this year's routine.
