Preparing for Battle: The ULTIMATE Guide to Scale Documentation

Hi Everyone! With the B-58 Hustler competition build in the works, I'm starting a new live stream teaching series related to RC scale competition. As a two time US Scale Masters National Champion, my goal is to bring more awareness to this awesome segment of the hobby encourage all of you to give it a try because it is a very fun and challenging segment (in a good way) amongst a great group of people. Also, I want to demystify the process of what it takes to do well in competition and provide full disclosure on the process and provide resources for anyone wanting to give it a try.

In this first video, we are going to talk about the upcoming 100th Anniversary of the first AMA Nats competition with Special Guest and Seasoned Nats competitor Joe Vermillion from Balsa USA and take a deep dive into the world of Scale Documentation. Just Some of the questions we'll address, does the airplane have to be a true to scale masterpiece to do well?? Do you have to have built the airplane to compete?? What documentation is required?? We'll address these and much, much more! #scalemodel #competition
