"ambiguous", then after thinking about it I realized that the way the
rule is worded it isn't ambiguous, which to me is a problem. The rule states
clearly, "The length of the vertical segments is not a judging
criteria." If this sentence was left out then we'd have no argument and
the general rules would apply, as Glen pointed out. If this text had said,
"the height of the maneuver is not a judging criteria" then there'd
be no argument. However, the description explicitly says that the length of the
vertical segments is not a judging criteria, why state this if they should be
the same? </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt'>I agree with Glen, the general rules must be followed as well as the
specific. Each maneuver should not require each small detail be
described. Most are already over-defined causing many to not read the
regs. Done properly, the general section should be large and the detail
small. All centered maneuvers are generally symetrical around
center. A top hat at center should have all line
lengths equal. A turnaround top hat may have all line lengths
different for positioning and altitude adjustment. Same for stall turns
at center and turnaround stall turns. All the statement "The length
of the vertical segments is not a judging criteria" means is the
performance of the model in vertical is not a grading criteria. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
10.0pt'>In general, centered maneuvers that appear to be symetrical should be
symetrical. Centered maneuvers that appear to begin and end at the same
altitude should, in fact, begin and end at the same altitude. The figure
"M" is a symetrical maneuver around center with first roll
directional optional, stall turn direction optional, inverted through the
bottom half loop, roll direction optional on the second vertical, vertical line
lenght the same as the first vertical, stall turn direction optional, upright
exit with overall height of the maneuver optional and all radii the same.
Much of this is stated in the maneuver description but what is not specificed
is: radii must be the same, rolls must be in the center of the lines, the stall
turn has a maximum pivot radius of 1/2 wingspan, the roll rates are the same,
etc... That's the general section and it applies.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
