From the RC Aerobatics rulebook.....NO hesitation allowed....the word ''immediately'' is quite specific.


Split “S”: Model performs one-half (1/2) roll in level light then immediately executes one-half inside loop to level flight in opposite direction as entry. Downgrades:
1. Half roll not 180 degrees.
2. Half loop not started immediately after half roll.
3. Half loop not constant radius.
4. Changes in heading.
5. One-half (1/2) roll not in level flight.
6. Model heading does not finish exactly opposite the direction of entry.


For the benefit of the new pattern fliers, the rulebook as it stands today can be found at:

ALSO....for the benefit of the spelling police, the word ''light'' should be ''flight'' in the first sentence, but I copied it directly from the rule book as is....
