Level overview

F3N is the FAI competition class for RC freestyle aerobatic helicopters. This schedule contains the 25 mandatory set manoeuvres (Annex 5F.1) plus 10 optional manoeuvres (Annex 5F.3). Every manoeuvre is difficulty-weighted by its K-factor, and each one is judged on symmetry, positioning, and rhythm rather than survivability.

Prerequisites

You should have completed Levels 1–7 of the pilot proficiency program before starting the F3N schedule. These manoeuvres assume advanced 3D control is already second nature.

Practice expectation

Expect hundreds of flights. Competition-standard consistency requires repetition to schedule rhythm, not just one clean pass.

What you'll learn

  • Fly the official F3N set schedule with correct entries, exits, and centering.
  • Weight your practice by K-factor and prioritise the highest-value manoeuvres.
  • Turn freestyle skills into judged, repeatable, competition-ready routines.
