[NSRCA-discussion] Maneuver

Yes, any roll/snap reversal must be immediate if the direction of the roll/snap is opposite to the first roll/snap.  If the snap/roll is in the same direction as the first roll then you can take your time.

 

In the ¼ roll, opposite snap rolls, ¼ roll in the F sequence… if you fly from left to right (for instance) and you roll right to KE (1/4 roll), as soon as you hit KE you need to initiate the snap to the left (if you snap left first) and then as soon as that snap completes you need to snap to the right and as soon as that snap finishes you need to start the ¼ roll left back to upright. 

 

If you roll right to KE (1/4 roll) and then snap right first you can extend the KE flight first before initiating the snap… and then immediately snap left after the first snap is completed and then you can extend that line in KE further before rolling to the left to finish the rolling portion of the maneuver.

 

Choices to be made… LOL

If the first snap roll is opposite to the first ¼ roll

there must be no lines between the ¼ rolls and the

snap rolls.

 

 

So if you snap roll the same direction as the first 1/4 roll, you can take as long of a line as you would like before the first snap?  Just want to make sure I understand this difference.

 

Thanks,

Don

Does anyone have the link(s) for FAI rules-  The links on the NSRCA site on United States rules for FAI appears to contain some background, rules proposals and unknown maneuver descriptions- but am looking for the rules current for 2013

 

Thanks much,

Don
