Proposal title
02 – Changes in scoring - Precision Task Circle
Existing text
S10 Annex 4, A2. 2A7 CIRCLE
The maximum score is given if the circle is flown exact circular, within the given limits.
P= (Rmin/Rmax – 0,5) * 400
Pmax = 200
New text
The maximum score is given if the circle is flown exact circular, within the given limits.
P= (Rmin/Rmax – 0,5) * 400 500
Pmax = 200 250
Reason
The scoring regarding Pmax should be aligned to the task precision landing. In both tasks a competitor can reach 250 points. This is easier to understand and memorably for competitors and organizers.
250 points in the precision task circle are actually theoretically reachable, the results in the WMC 2022 were at maximum around 150 points. Increasing the maximum to 250 points has only minimal effect to the weighting.
