RC ETTIQUETTE
- Always inform the other pilots of your intentions, your intention to takeoff, your intention to land, and your intention to make a big crater in the middle of the runway (it's always hard taxiing around those fuselage tails sticking out of the ground.
- When walking up to the runway for landing, it is impolite to walk between two people using a buddy box.
- It is the ultimate in bad manners to run over someone else's plane when backing out of the parking area, unless that plane is the only one with half a chance at beating you in the next contest.
