The objective is to fly a precise 360 degree circle around a marker in a given minimum height of 700ft AGL in a range of radius of minimum 200 meters to a maximum of 750 meters. The scored 360 degree circle has to be flown in any desired height, but without exceeding 200ft (61m) between lowest and highest height.
Penalties: A 20% penalty will be imposed for flying the circle outside of a range of 200ft (61m) between lowest and highest height.
Reason
It is not useful to provide a minimum height in addition to the legal regulations. It may be more challenging to fly the task within a band of 200ft height.
