Re: [RCSE] Buiilt up RES ship...
Doug, How about a Mirage! Isthmus Model Company http://www.isthmusmodels.com/product_info.php?cPath=21_27&products_id=111 There is information for improved strength in the spar and adding a spoiler / wing bolt. One of the finest built up nostalgia glider ever designed...IMHO My last one came in at 31.5 ounces 113" span I flew it last weekend in gusty wind up to 19mph with 20 oz of ballast and it flew superbly. Check it out! Augie McKibben - Original Message - From: "Douglas, Brent" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 9:16 AM Subject: [RCSE] Buiilt up RES ship... I'm fishing for a Fall / Winter building project, and I've got a short list put together. Any thoughts on the following. If you or a friend have seen, flown, or built any of these, I'd like to hear your thoughts. Skybench's Bird - 100" or more or the 970 (as a nostalgia ship, too) Polecat's Easy Bubble Dancer M&M GliderTech's Marauder (115") * any others?

Re: [RCSE] Buiilt up RES ship...
Aw shucks, Tony, you make a man blush ;) I managed to place 2nd in the MidSouth RES contest with the prototype plane, too! Having built an Allegro-Lite from "scratch", and then building the EZBD, I gotta say the compromises Denny took to make it "EZ" are well worth the time saved. It's a snap to build and so far I haven't even come close to breaking the wing. I'd build another one in a heartbeat. tony estep wrote: The coolest builtup kit by far is the EZBD from Polecat Aero. Download the manual - it's impressive! Many on this list can vouch for the plane; it's the new world of RES. -- ben wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://thelocust.org/ RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
