This is a pretty common misconception. Check this out: http://slickaircraft.com/
That's what this thread is all about, right?
I sat down with Scott Stoop's book for an hour or so last night. Boy he sure goes into a lot of detail on some of the stuff. I have a LOT to learn about precision flight!
so i want to start some imac stuff where do i start
Thanks for filling in any blanks Rick. Would love to hear any of your comments and tips for the group. What do you fly IAC? I taught in Mudry Cap 10s a long time ago.
The flight school that I used to manage had a CAP10. Great airplane! Really enjoyed flying it. Most of my competition was in a Decathlon and a RANS Chaos that I built back in the 80's. Now, I just help put on a couple of contests per year and run our local IAC chapters web site:

I am excited about this as I am really more interested in precision than 3d but my 65" Vyper seems to be capable of both and I am really enjoying it.

Lines, radii, rates, oh my. Wind correction, full stalls, snap rolls... Lots to know for sure. Do you have access to any judging seminars? Check the iMac site or get in touch with your regional iMac reps. If you can get to one all that stuff comes together. Attending an event also helps.
