rookie
 

Were and how does one get started in IMAC? I have a SIG cap 232 with a SAITO 150 motor. I can take off, fly a few recognizable maneuvers, and land when and were I want it. Is that enough to get started at some beginner or even novice level?
Thanks
Ron

Ron, Go to www.mini-iac.com and download the Basic sequence. It's on the left hand side of the site. Take a copy to the field and ask a friend to spot for you and practice flying the sequence. There is an "A" and "B" sequence, the only difference is the WIND direction. Concentrate also on flying straight and level, all figures start with straight and level. Good luck and welcome to IMAC. Feel free to ask questions and practice.

You will also want to check the contest schedule for the North Central region on the IMAC website. People at contests are always ready to help new pilots.

I'd say give it a shot. You can learn A LOT simply from just practicing the sequence. Download the basic sequence and the judging guide. Practice as much as possible (both directions) and if there is anyone in the area that flies IMAC, see if you can have them coach you through a few practice session.
