The 400 foot rule used to be vague and open to the interpretation that it applied only within 3 miles of an airport.  The current interpretation document eliminates the vagueness and not in our favor!

The 400 ft. rule is not new, and everyone one in R/C has violated the rule at some point in time.  If enforced, the limit will put an end to aerotowing, and most gliding as well.  It’s never been an issue, because no one ever enforced the limit.

We could not fly with a 400 foot limit either.  Patterns would have to change, planes probably even slower or smaller.

Actually it is 303m or 994 ft at 175m.

Top of a 60 degree box at 175 meters out is almost 500'

The IMAC boys will have a cow over the 400 foot rule.
