[NSRCA-discussion] Noise - Overfly - and DifferentAerobaticModel Types

[Bill Glaze]

A few years ago, in R/C Modeler they ran an article on a Giant Scale meet in, I believe, France.  There was a picture of an extremely large Extra 300; the caption mentioned the airplane, at full throttle, put out 84 db.  You could hold a normal conversation while alongside the model. Remarkable, but apparently potentially possible,  with some effort.
I've often said, that if it's possible to quiet my 300 hp Chevy........

  The few of the pattern group that saw that noise problem 20 years ago and started in earnest to chNGE THE MIND SET of the day, were more or less successful. We reduced noise in spades. So much so that we may seem boring to the uninitiated.

  Geez a 150 cc motoscooter is fairly quiet comparatively speaking, so it's doable.

     Several other clubs had lost fields due to pattern flying at that time. Pattern did not have a large following and there was not any support within the clubs.(sounds  a bit like IMAC right now)
