There are very clear areas of judging criteria to look for in this maneuver…. First the pull to a 45 up line, the knife edge view of the plane at the top radius of the 45 up line, the inverted downline, the knife edge on the bottom radius and the completion (upright) view of the plane on the 45 up line before a push to level flight. Since this roll would have to be flown slowly, the difficulty is pretty high. Obviously ensuring that all the radii are the same as well.</div><div><div id="MAC_OUTLOOK_SIGNATURE"></div></div></div><div><br></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri; font-size:12pt; text-align:left; color:black; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt"><span style="font-weight:bold">From: </span> NSRCA-discussion on behalf of NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold">Reply-To: </span> Ed Alt, NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold">Date: </span> Sunday, August 23, 2015 at 5:35 AM<br><span style="font-weight:bold">To: </span> NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold">Subject: </span> Re: [NSRCA-discussion] F17 barrel roll<br></div><div><br></div><div><style><!--

This appears to require that the model skid around the entire rotation, which is not really how a barrel roll is typically done as far as I know. I believe that you would normally do one mainly with simultaneous pitch and roll inputs, and maybe touches of rudder to keep that coordinated, in much the same way as a coordinated turn would be done in a full scale aircraft to keep the turn & bank indicator's ball centered. As a result, it would present itself as if the aircraft were traveling along the inside of a cylinder with both of it's main gear wheels always in contact with its inner surface, hence the name barrel roll. Executed this way, you could do that Bob Hoover demonstration of keeping a glass of some liquid perfectly still, resting on top of the instrument panel.</span></div><div><div><br></div><div>This definition seems to be more of a variation on an integrated roll, and as a result you would expect to see the tail pointed <span style="font-size: 12pt;">at perhaps</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> a 45 deg yaw angle at one point (when roll angle = 90 deg), and the nose yawed at you 45 deg at another (when roll angle = 180 deg). And I think that as a result it would also mean that the wing tip in the direction of the roll would always be in contact with the inner surface of the imaginary cylinder, instead of </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">both wheels.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Am I visualizing that correctly? It seems like it would be tricky to judge accurately.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Ed</span></div></div><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2015 23:10:49 -0700<br>To: <a href="mailto:underdw@gmail.com">underdw@gmail.com</a>; <a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a><br>Subject: Re: [NSRCA-discussion] F17 barrel roll<br>From: <a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a><br><br><div><div><div>Hopefully this helps…</div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:BEDA5428-9F47-4C1E-9A22-6887AB66610F" width="995.000000" height="104.000000"></div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:6A2967F9-CA86-45B9-861A-E4D761082DE4" width="1148.000000" height="860.000000"></div><div><div id="ecxMAC_OUTLOOK_SIGNATURE"></div></div></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:369717E5-7551-4D99-83DA-54408B4479E4" width="1147.000000" height="861.000000"></div><span id="ecxOLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:12pt;text-align:left;color:black;BORDER-BOTTOM:medium none;BORDER-LEFT:medium none;PADDING-BOTTOM:0in;PADDING-LEFT:0in;PADDING-RIGHT:0in;BORDER-TOP:#b5c4df 1pt solid;BORDER-RIGHT:medium none;PADDING-TOP:3pt;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">From: </span> NSRCA-discussion on behalf of NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold;">Reply-To: </span> Daniel Underkofler, NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold;">Date: </span> Saturday, August 22, 2015 at 6:21 PM<br><span style="font-weight:bold;">To: </span> NSRCA List<br><span style="font-weight:bold;">Subject: </span> [NSRCA-discussion] F17 barrel roll<br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr">In F17 there is a cryptic aresti symbol that is described in the figure description as a barrel roll.
