Science Fiction and Future Scale Competition

1 Science Fiction and Future Scale Competition (F/F Scale) is a variation of Sport Scale. The purpose of this competition is to produce a flying replica of either a fictional or a seriously proposed, but unbuilt, rocket vehicle that exhibits maximum craftsmanship in construction, finish, and flight performance.  F/F Scale competition differs from Sport Scale Competition (Rule 53) only in the nature of the prototype and accommodations for the consequent limitations in 
substantiation data.

2 Subjects excluded from this event: 

	a) Vehicles from unpublished fiction and amateur films. 
	b) Science fiction or futuristic designs published by model rocketry manufacturers, publications, or organizations specifically for flying model construction.
	c)  Science fiction themed rocket kits that do not appear in actual works of science fiction or rockets in generic science fiction illustrations.
	d) Generic illustrations of a class of proposed vehicle rather than a specific program.
	e) Real prototypes that appeared in science fiction, unless so modified that they could not be flown in Sport Scale.
	f) Amateur rockets and missiles, except when the prototype is of obvious historical significance

3 Entries that qualify for Plastic Model Conversion Competition under Rule 55 are specifically excluded from this event.  

4 As with Sport Scale, the contestant must supply data to substantiate the model's adherence to scale in shape, color, and paint pattern.  Data must derive from the work of science fiction or from a published serious proposal (a serious proposal is one by an established aerospace professional, institution or company). 

For fictional prototypes, photos and art extracted from the work of science fiction,  or from advertising or publicity for the work are acceptable.  Photos and drawings  of props used in filming of works of science fiction are acceptable.  If the original  work did not depict the vehicle in color, colors of contemporary vehicles may be used to suggest a scheme consistent with the original work. 

For proposal prototypes, photos and drawings of models produced by the proposing companies or institutions are acceptable.  If color or markings data is not available, The modeler may document markings for a similar design proposed or flown in the same era. Drawings or photographs depicting flying model kits are not adequate. 

5 Scoring is in the same as in the Sport Scale event

6 Weighting factor is the same as in the Sport Scale event  (WF=20)
