Jack, Yes, that was my entry. Anti-grav propulsion, and it had a qualified flight (Chad) and I believe came in eight place due to other DQ's. I am also...
Marc, We actually have a place in the NARAM schedule just for an item like this; it's at 10:00 pm on Monday; the competition forum. Many months ago I had...

Hi Larry - I seemed to remember that was yours, but I didn't want to say so if I wasn't sure. Battlescar Impactica on the other hand. - Jack Jack Hagerty, ARA...
... If anyone wants to talk about scale-related stuff at the competition forum, that's fine with me. I think it would help in identifying some of the issues...
... Yes R2D2 does fly with rocket jets in its legs and will be fine as long as you don't use a model of it. I'm very sure that mission points for correct...
Hi there. For the last 11 years I've been updating Scaleroc with my long running plans for a large Aries Moon Liner. I posted files/photos of the counter...
Using a model kit in Scale is perfectly legal. It's a good starting point from which you can correct or enhance the limitations of the kit to get more points. ...
Jack from my understanding that would be concidered a plastic model conversion Sent from my iPhone ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Interesting conflict. Yes, models that qualify for PMC are specifically excluded from CS (gotta get used to calling it that now). But if it's a model of a...
I'm pretty sure the distinction lies in rules 55.1 (PMC) and 56.3 (CS). Excerpts: 55.1: The model must be one that the manufacturer did not produce as a model...
So my interpritation would say that NO plastic model can be used in a SC launch what so ever.... Am I correct in thinking this then? Thanks, Blake Goddard "It...
Hi I have two reminders for all those procrastinators who may be thinking about starting to build your NARAM models; first you'll want to register and if you...
It would seem so, but I'm just a junior level judge, not a pink book lawyer. Maybe Marc or Bob K. have a ruling on this one. - Jack Jack Hagerty, ARA Press ...
This is another one of those vauge areas in the rules, the first rule in the SFFS (CS) catogory refer to the sport scale rules and state the "only" difference...
Steve, I think your answer stands as the best representative of what the rules are to be interpreted as. Thanks, Blake Goddard To: scaleroc@yahoogroups.com ...
No Plastic Model Kit can be used for any Sport Scale (or Scale type) Event. The rules are very clear on that. This is not one of those "gray area", or ...
... In the case of the PMC event, my thought is to apply a standard that substantially all of the airframe has to be from the original kit. So it's fine if...
... I'm not seeing how specifically allowing plastic kit parts for Sport Scale under 53.5, but then not saying anything about it in 56.3 means that they are...
... My advice is to play it safe, use part or two from a plastic model if you really need to in order to build the SFFS of your choosing, but don't go ...
Good points as usual, George, but let me point out: 1) The recent name change is not something that happens “every few years.” This is the first time...
This is why I said the rules are vauge, I can clearly seen how George is reading it as there must be some reason that that paticular line was left out of the...
Tagging onto Steve's note; for those that have procrastinated getting a room, I have one I can release. I'm going to be sharing with George Rachor this year,...
Hi again, Since I've had a couple inquires about this just within the past week or so, we added in a "guest" option for those who may want to attend NARAM but...

Just so you know where I was coming from when I wrote up my first proposed rules for SFFS: I wanted to mirror the rules of Sport Scale exactly with the...
How would an LM qualify in Sport Scale competition? Decent stage? Accent stage? The main question I want answered is does the decent stage qualify as a...
... The LM is an example of a "space vehicle". It is delivered to orbit as an intact payload. Its impulse is not used until that point, so it is not a stage....
