Title: Need information on basics of IC planes to compete in sp4mm3r 2013 Post by: surajab on January 15, 2013, 10:02:08 PM I want to take part in Cruse conrtol competition in sp4mm3r 2013.
Please suggest ARF model and suitable engines . http://sp4mm3r.org/#take-off http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=471007572955982&set=a.471007539622652.107409.100001402294586&type=1&theater Title: Re: Need information on basics of IC planes to compete in sp4mm3r 2013 Post by: rcpilotacro on January 16, 2013, 08:34:16 AM I read through the rules i think ARF is not permitted unless you are planning to buy one and make it look like you made it by changing the covering. for the competition, as per the problem statement you will require different ones for going around the pylon and for the aerobatics, there is also the Hover and Stall Turn, outside loop which will be difficult to hack if you are new to this hobby. engines aren't permitted too. Looks like Shadman is going to walk away with this prize money once again
Title: Re: Need information on basics of IC planes to compete in sp4mm3r 2013 Post by: rcpilotacro on January 16, 2013, 08:44:36 AM here are the rules
Flying weight of the plane must not exceed 1 kg .This includes all the accessories of the plane while in flight (batteries etc). This will be checked before each takeoff. Teams are allowed to use electric components only since this is strictly an electric plane competition. IC engines are strictly prohibited. Teams are allowed to bring two planes. However a single model has to be used throughout a round. Take-off and landing can be done on landing gears or by a push from hands. Metal propellers are strictly not allowed. Use of gyros is prohibited. The models should be handmade. Ready-to-fly models and planes assembled from kits are strictly prohibited. Any other improvements not jeopardizing the safety of the people around are allowed. The final decisions about the eligibility of the model will rest with the Event Coordinator's. |
