Scoring Vs Judging

[RC Steve Sterling]

I do wish the Intermediate had more positioning turnarounds like the humpty
bump. What a great maneuver. Too bad it is very early in the sequence,
before I have really gotten so far out of position that I need it much,
although I can screw up the  2 rolls enough to have the options useful.

On the option to push or pull-- if I am in good position or a little early,
half-roll up, then pull over. If I am behind the aircraft and close to
nicking the box (not unusual for me), half-roll up then push (towards the
center) to ensure the box is not violated. Quarter rolls if you need to
bring it in or move out.

  Humpty-bump with options.

  This is the best turnaround maneuver. If you roll the"wrong way", you can
just opt to go over the top the other way. Just make sure you 1/4 roll the
"right-way" to come out the right way up. This is great for wind
correction/recovery of heading.

  The Humpty with 1/2 roll up is for when you are right on line and don't
need a heading or distance change.

  The trap to watch out for is that you get used to the options and forget
to take care of the roll direction in a top-hat...Just keeps you on your
toes...

  Eric.

  This is good.... I learned on thing.  On the humpty bump option I would
1/4 roll to a pull over the top and then 1/4 roll down which is correct.
However, you can go either way, push or pull to determine wether to go in or
out with the manuever.  Thus it doesnt matter which way you quarter roll.
The humpty bump over the top with half roll on the upline, the push or pull
is determined by how you entered it, inverted or upright.   Allright... a
new way(right way) to pratice it.

      What were they doing" An outside push over the top?




    Wouldn't matter, you could do either and either would be a zero, the
description says that if you half roll it must be in the up line, only roll
allowed in the down line is 1/4 roll.
