Pattern Box Rules (discussion)

[Rcmaster199 at aol.com]

In Pattern:
There's nothing wrong with the +/-60 degree stage rule and the 150 meter  out 
distance is fine also. 
There's nothing wrong with the 5 kilo max rule. 
There is nothing wrong with the 2x2 meter max rule
There's nothing wrong with the unlimited engine power rule
 
What's the next complaint du jur that ""needs fixing"""? The 42 volt  nominal 
voltage when an electric is involved? Or possibly argue that real radio  
programmability with rate functions is desirable? Or autopilots and gyros? Or  
maybe putting an upper limit on prop size because a X" prop on an engine is  
dangerous? 
 
Interestingly, one could argue that pattern has some similarity to golf in  
that it's an individual's sport. Many may play golf but a  small percentage is 
good at it and extremely few are pros. C'mon  fellas, pattern should be 
challenging to do well. Actually, more accurately,  pattern is just plain tough to 
do, period. I find that fun. Don't you?
