[NSRCA-discussion] Power points

[John Gayer]

Joe,

The membership referred to is that of the NSRCA and it is an NSRCA vote. 
There can be no other interpretation or the freeflight community will be 
voting on our new sequences. The survey could be considered an approval 
vote with reservations which I hope have been addressed. Hard to tell. I 
certainly would not consider the current sequence process to be very open.

The rulebook, as I have mentioned before, also limits the sportsman 
sequence to four years. Unless you want to do another goaround next 
year, I suggest you rerelease the current sequence along with a 
statement that the Sportsman sequence was examined and found to be valid 
for another four year cycle. That should be done as part of your 
upcoming release.

John

RULE:

The Radio Control Aerobatics sequences will be developed periodically by 
the National Society of Radio Control Aerobatics (NSRCA) Sequence 
Committee which is appointed by the NSRCA Board of Directors. The NSRCA 
Board of Directors will supervise the sequence development and will 
submit the proposed sequences to the membership for approval before they 
approve all sequences for use in RCA competition. All current sequences 
can be found at the NSRCA
website. The NSRCA will modify the sequences for classes 401, 402 and 
403, Indoor R/C Aerobatics Sportsman and Indoor R/C Aerobatics 
Intermediate at least every four years and the sequence for class 404 
will be modified at least every two years, but sequences may be updated 
more frequently as required. Sequences will be published no later than 
December for the following year. A description of each maneuver for all 
sequences can be found on the NSRCA website at: 
http://nsrca.us/index.php/sequences.
