RE: Updated Weight Requirements?
Well, I guess you can make the statement that having a problem with my model this year is why I made this proposal. That is not the case as I have stated in previous posts in this thread. Perhaps I am guilty of not making a proposal earlier. I thought it would have been done way earlier, and like I also stated, I have been in and out of pattern a couple of times. For that I accept responsibility. But this inequity has needed to be addressed since the F3A interpreted the rules to mean that electrics had to weigh with their batteries.
Are you saying that rules should never be adjusted for changing technologies? If that was the case we would all still be flying rudder-only, rudder-elevator and throttle, and multi-channel.
Why is it that an IC engine powered model can fly it's entire flight over 5kg yet an electric has to take-off less then or right at 5kg? You don't see the problem with that?
