F3A - snap roll query

[Troy Newman]

By the way too much speed entering the snaps will cause the jump you are
referring too. This is because the its harder to stall the wing at higher
speeds....you need a quicker pitch change to get the break...The model will
fly for a distance on that new heading before the break occurs....Slower
speeds are more controllable and give a more defined break into the snap.

I was interrupted when I was typing I hadn't realised I was not finished
typing.


Hi Guys,

I recently read that any snap roll which finishes higher than where it
started should be zeroed automatically even if the jump is slight. I am
referring in particular to the 1-1/2 with 4 of 8 point an 3 of 4 point roll
with 1 1/4 snap.

How is this ruling being interpreted in your country. If this is the case I
will need to perform these snaps at very low speeds.

Given the stability of our modern aircraft and the relatively long tail
moments this is not an easy accomplishment.

Peter
