The only thing I see is that a sequence has changed which we haven't seen. That should again be looked at by the membership.

I see no voting requirement here. I look at the process as going above and beyond this requirement by simplifying some of the maneuvers as a result of the survey.

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 Academy of Model Aeronautics Competition Regulations | Radio Control Aerobatics 17 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.

> Each new sequence, or change to a sequence, shall be submitted to the General Membership and public for their review. The BoD shall approve publication of sequences on the NSRCA website for membership/public review and comment.. The committee shall update their proposed sequences/changes, if required, and submit it in final form to the BoD. The BoD shall designate the Committee to prepare any inputs necessary to support the sequence changes. Recommended changes to the maneuver descriptions and judging criteria shall be coordinated with the NSRCA Rules Committee (if necessary). Any changes to the Sequence Development Guide will be made by the Committee Chairperson and submitted to the BoD for approval. Once a final set of sequences is approved by the BoD it shall be published in the K-Factor and posted on the NSRCA website.
