[NSRCA-discussion] Masters 2009 sequence diagrams are posted onthe NSRCA site

Hi Gene

This exact thing was brought up last season about the "three opposite rolls" in FAI.

I believe the term "no perceiveable" hesitation between changing directions was used

to cover that....  LOL  I guess that means you better hit the point before you move the

stick the other way!  My guess is that if you are within a couple degrees of the point,

no one could see that anyway.  You are immediately changing roll direction, and the time

spent at the point of change is so short, you'd have to be somewhere around five degrees

off before it was actually seen as being "off".   The slower the roll, the easier it is to see

wing position in real time.   If you are rolling in slow roll fashion, the judge could easily see

if wing position is off.  I guess this is all splitting hairs, because if you reverse a roll at any

time, the wing has to stop rotation before it goes the other way, hence a hesitation....

This could drive a guy nuts....  But in my case, who could tell?!

Don’t you have to stop the plane to show the second point (2 of 2) and then reverse the roll direction (Reversed)? Doesn’t that “stop” create an inherent hesitation (Per Webster:  to delay momentarily : pause )? If there is no delay have you presented a point and therefore really performed a two point roll?

You are correct Jim...  there is no hesitation between the two seperate 2/2.
Each 2/2 has a hesitation after the half roll to inverted.  So, to put it as a 
description of requirements, you'd have "half roll", hesitation, "half roll", NO HESITATION,
"half roll", hesitation, "half roll"....

George now you have me confused. I understood that there was to be NO hesitation between the two 2/2 rolls reversed. A noticeable hesitation would warrant a downgrade. PPT page 18 and RCA-33 agree on this.

Jon,

You've been doing it correctly.  That's a list of downgrades. If there's no hesitation, it's a downgrade.

Rick,
I want to thank you for posting these.  I read thru the Powerpoint presentation on the Masters sequence last nite, and picked up on two key points that I had completely missed.  I hadn't thought about pulling early on the start of the hourglass to maintain geometry,  and I had completely missed the fact that there is no hesitation in the two, two of two rolls opposite.  I had been practicing both manuevers incorrectly..  In fact, I would have sworn there WAS a hesitation in the rolls before I read your presentation and rechecked the rules.  Now if the weather would break so I could get more practice...

Job well done.

The current Masters seequence is posted on the NSCA website (along with all the other current sequences)  at

http://nsrca.us/judginghome..html

Click the desired AMA class link in the middle of the page to open or save the presentation.

--  Each file is 2MB or a little less -dodwnload may take a few seconds

 -- Might as well save it on your local computer for later reference..!

These presentations try to capture the rulebook downgrades and some helpful tips but, as always, the current rulebook is the authority!

Links to FAI P09 and F09 sequences and call cards are in the listing to the right of the page.

Enjoy--!
