I think F3C is 3d type flying, and FAI is precision type flying i.e. rolls, loops, hovering

Official competition figures. Mostly straight up, flying squares, circles, pirouettes, and combinations in all orientations. Have to be exactly according to the defined figure, and you loose points even when 25cm offf the 'ideal'. Everything is ruled, the flying time, the order of figures, the max weight of the machine, max engine displacement, etc.

Check the AMA website
http://www.modelaircraft.org/Comp/Competition.htm
and I have seen other threads on this before.

FAI is the organization (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale, www.fai.org) and they organize several competition classes. F3C is their helicopter competition class as I described above.
