The first Circuit commences when the model is exacly in front of you and should trace a constant radius over the ground.
Bank gently into the circuit maintaining a constant height. The first and fourth quarters of the circuit (downwind) will require more aileron and elevator than the second and third. Ensure that you don't go too far downwind and, equally important, ensure that you force the model back upwind.
The circuit should end with the model going wings level directly in front of you.
The following Procedure Turn is the same as that in Step 2 except that it's downwind so once again don't go too far. The height should again be constant.
You should now be back on the same track that you flew on the Fly Past.
