[NSRCA-discussion] No telemetry rule & new radio systems

[Richard Lewis]

The rule likely needs an update to verbage that is consistent with current 
technology, but as long as there is no closed loop on any of the telemetry it 
is well within the "spirit" of the rule to use/allow these systems in pattern...

Subject: [NSRCA-discussion] No telemetry rule & new radio systems

I was just reading RCM&E (one of my favorite magazines) and noticed that the 
latest systems from Graupner and Hitec have telemetry built-in to all RX's, I 
suspect the others aren't far behind.  With the current rule against any form of 
downlink from the aircraft, it seems the newer systems will be out of reach to 
those competing in pattern aerobatics.  I'm just in sportsman, any thought to 
relaxing the rule to restricting telemetry that might actually be an advantage 
in competition as opposed to things that can save an airframe like battery 
voltage data?
