FOUR POINT ROLL
From a straight and level flight path, the model
is rolled 90 degrees and holds this attitude,
with the wings in a vertical position, long
enough for it to be clearly defined. The model
is then rolled another 90 degrees, in the same
direction of rotation and holds the inverted
attitude long enough for it to be clearly
defined. This is followed by another 90 degree
roll in the same direction, bringing the ship to
another knife edge position. Following a
similar pause in the roll, the ship finally
rolls another 90 degrees to upright and level
flight.
Downgrades:
-
Model
not level at start of roll
-
The path
traced by the model is not a straight line.
(The plane does barrel roll segments or
suffer changes in heading.)
-
Sudden
correction in heading between roll segments.
-
Plane
changes altitude during roll
-
Plane
does not pause long enough between each
segment of roll
-
Wings
are not exactly vertical at 1/4 and 3/4
positions
-
Plane
fails to do level flight at end of roll.
