6 SAM CHAMPS 2016 RADIO CONTROL RULES And related information General Rules: All models and flights shall be in accordance with the latest AMA and 2015 SAM rules unless otherwise stated. All pertinent AMA Safety Rules covering the model, modeler and support equipment shall be in effect. All models except scale models must bear the entrants identification tag and AMA number. The Texaco Championship trophy will be awarded for the one highest Texaco time recorded in Texaco and Texaco Ignition. Notes: 1. RC Concours: Any model entered in the Concours events must make one qualifying official flight, certified by a witness during the Champs. 2. Frequency: Include the channel planned to be flown if flying on 72 mhz. If flying on 2.4 ghz, so note in the column for channel. For those flying on the ham bands, include frequency information and a copy of your ham license attached to the entry form. 3. Brown Jr. LER and Texaco; Any un-scaled Antique model is allowed. This includes Antique pylon models. We will waive the minimum wing span rule and allow the same model to be flown in both Texaco and LER. 4. Speed 400: The Speed 400 event will be flown in accordance with the SAM 2015 Rules With the addition that motor runs will also be 120 seconds and 10 min max. 5. Speed 400 Scale: The rules are: A. Model shall be a replica of a reciprocating engine powered, man carrying airplane of pre-1950 vintage. Powered sailplanes are not acceptable. B. Although models are not judged for scale, a reasonable effort should be made to simulate realistic coloring and markings. Model to be balsa/plywood construction. Foam may be used for detail only. A plan or 3 view may be needed for confirmation. C. There is a 16 oz. minimum weight requirement. There is no wing loading specification. D. Thrust will be provided by a non-folding, non-metal propeller of any size driven directly (i.e., no reduction drives) by a Graupner Speed volt or a Maxx Products Promax Speed v part # ACC341 permanent magnet ferrite motor without ball bearings. After purchase, motor timing adjustments are allowed. To prevent damage to the motor, folding propellers may be used provided they are locked in the fixed position for normal flight. E. The battery may be six NiCad cells or six NiMh cells, or two Lithium chemistry cells of any capacity with manufacturer s label clearly visible. F. The power to the motor must be radio controlled but may be on/off or ESC. G. Flights may be hand launched with the landing area determined by field rules. H. The motor may be run only during the first 120 seconds of the flight. Any running of the motor afterwards results in a zero score for that flight. This time may be changed at the discretion of the CD. I. The model s score is the sum of the best two of three flights (10 minute max). In the event of more than one competitor achieving two maximum flights, at the CD s discretion, the winner may be determined by a flyoff. 6. FAA Requirements. RC flyers are reminded that as of the date of this form the FAA require the flyer of any RC model over; 0.55 lb or 8.8 oz must be registered. Neither the AMA, SAM nor the Champs management will check if you have registered and we hope this issue will not impede our conduct of an enjoyable Champs. 6
