If you mean the F3C program for the Netherlands, try:
www.heli.pruts.nl/figuren

Peter,

Thanks for that. However it looks like this is the advanced program, not the F3C program? Or did they change that ??
By the way do you know what's the matter with the dutch competition organization, that this, nor a link to this, is NOT on their official website but on a site freely translated 'heli.bungle.nl'? That name alone does really give a bad reputation to the dutch competition I would say.

It is not the FAI program, it is the "new" F3C program.

Apparently everybody involved in the dutch F3C competition knows about the above mentioned site. As you, I did neither and therefore started a threath on the very same site/forum with the suggestion to put a link on a more official place like the Knvvl site. I don't think this suggestion has been granted. I expect that there are a few more people that will be up for a surprise when they want to attend the first round of the dutch F3C championship in Almere on the 13th. On the otherhand the new program is not bad, I think it will challenge people to make progress in their flying capabilities.

By the way will you attend the program April 13th ?

I think you were the guy from G&E that was on our field (Almere) last Sunday, so you should know I think. It are those frequencies that G&E is not allowed to use.

The official document from FAI is called "FAI Schedule of F3C Helicopter Competition Maneuvers 2002 Edition.pdf" and it's in the "Documents" section at the video server. (www.augustoheli.com). There's also a full video section with every maneuver performed by a one of the top asian pilots.

Peter,

> I think you were the guy from G&E that was on our field (Almere) last Sunday, so you should know I think.

Yes I'm that guy

I already thought we met when seeing your name but I wasn't sure about your last name. I tried to find confirmation about this strange stories on the knvvl website. After all the program IS on the knvvl/modelvliegvliegsport pages (www.modelvliegsport.nl, click on download and then on section 4.5RB.) but it would not download for me. Knvvl mailed it to me and it's indeed very similar to the heli.pruts pages but has some additional info I think and slightly better quality pictures.

>It are those frequencies that G&E is not allowed to use.

Ah yes... so what are they... Sometimes we are not allowed at G&E to use channels if they are used at Almere so that might be the case for this competition as well. Okay I found them in the agenda they mailed me too. It shows as a blank screen but actually the text is there and you can see it with a text editor...

Hey Augusto,

Nice those notes on Jason and Todd! Agree with any line of it, except this one "+Steer the furthers part of the helo, i.e. "nose in" fly the tail, "tail in" fly the nose.. While up right; however, when inverted fly the closest part of the aircraft…". I strongly recommend steering at all times as if you are in the heli. Only that will give you an overall consistent understanding of 3D I think.

However it seems the spaces in the F3C program name are causing some errors:
The requested URL /videos/videoarchive/Documents/FAI was not found on this server.

It seems that the filename is truncated at the first space, maybe you should remove the spaces from the document filename otherwise I can't get them....
