[NSRCA-discussion] Masters Seq

[J N Hiller]

Thanks Matt, I suspected both were needed as I'm not aware of any wavers of
the separation line. This will present a judging challenge as well. I will
bring this up at our judging seminar.
Yes three rolls are quite difficult to do well, especially for an old guy
that's gotten buy for 30 years without having to fly left coordinated rolls.
Entering the reverse cuban high makes a large leisurely paced maneuver but
out of rhythm with the rest of the flight. There is enough dead time
traveling to #7 without waiting for #6 to finish.
I like the schedule especially the square on corner but it too can be driven
excessively high quite easily.
Looking forward to more flying weather.
Jim

Jim,

Yes both are needed.

You may try increasing roll rate for both the 3 rolls opposite and the
vertical.  The seemingly simple 3 rolls opposite should be difficult to do
well. On the other hand, a faster vertical roll is trully trivial matter;
you have to keep the plane at a reasonable altitude to do the Rev Cuban at a
reasonable altitude and keep it sized consistent with the rest of the
maneuvers. The flying I've witnessed so far this season shows me that
there's much room for improvement

regards,
MattK

Most to you know this already but maneuvers 4, 5 & 6 are more crunched than
apparent with non-obvious downgrade potential.

Driving a long full roll vertical line in the half square loop (#5)
following 3 rolls reversed (#4) could easily exceed 2 x horizontal bottom
line. The top line could also be chopped entering a large reverse cuban
eight (#6).
To add to the uncertainty its hard to distinguish between the maneuver
separation line and horizontal portions of the half square loop. Do we need
both?

The 2-point half square (#17) isn't an issue due to the preceding and
following maneuvers finishing and starting near center.

I'm thinking I may need to increase roll rate a little to keep the height in
check.
Having fun now.
Jim
