I found it interesting, only as an illustration, to load two pounds of lead into an F3B eagle, and set the plane on the ground, resting on its nose, tail vertical, and take hold of the stabs and move the plane around it various axis. It definitely gives you an appreciation of the work those little elevator and rudder servos have to do to move the plane around. Its not too hard to imagine the tail boom flexing on launch or in a hard speed turn (bank, yank, unbank.) Also, it wasn't the tail boom flexing that impressed me much on a two man F3J tow, but the V-tail getting blown off certainly got my attention. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

I just bought one from my local shop for $67.95 + $4.59 tax ($72.53).

[RCSE] flex
I do not want to sound like Gordy, but enough is enough. I am going to wake up Bernouli, Mollier, Stokes and couple math experts from their graves and put them to work. I want to know where is this 150 to 200 lbs pull comes from and how that pull is transfered to the boom. Have anyone loaded up his plane at home with sand bags adding up to a 150 to 200 lbs wings loading? How is this flexing shifting the tails to a negative decalage ? . Now, how a lousy flap servo with a max of 60 oz torque won't allow the flaps to go in reflex at such proportional to their surface forces acting upon them ?. How about the ailerons ?. I bet you Daryl is a human too, and according to health practices a human can only push or hold a force no higher than 60 lbs for no more than few seconds. And that is after dinner. That load is at the tow hook and is distributed to the entire fuse. If the tow hook will be behind Daryl's hand I can see the flex occuring. And that will determine a positive decalage. But I do not think that Daryl had master that yet. But by letting go , launching the plane that is , the fuse now rests on the wings at one end and on the stabs at the other. Daryl's got the pedal to the metal and the tow hook is pulling on that fuse like crazy. The wings and tails are opposing to Daryl's and the winch work. The fuse bows and as it does the tails goes negative and the wings goes positive. The tails pushes the plane to the ground and the wings are stalling. Oh so nice. Lousy shallow launch follow by a stall. So where the reinforcing be on the fuse to make it stiff ? Ya, ya from the nose to the toes- that is from the joining rod or wing attachement point to the boom end. Hey champ do I have to add anything ? Mike PS. Fredy Sage: keep doing what you doing so far.

[RCSE] Canopy Source?
Hi Gang, I just got off the phone with one of my really good old flying buddies and he has offered to give me a slightly damaged 1/3.75 Scale ASW27 if I will promise to make it fly again. This is one of the kits from Krause. The only broken piece I cannot fix myself is the canopy. Does anybody out there know where I might be able to acquire one of these? Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. See Ya, Pat McCleave Wichita, KS RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [RCSE] D.P.'s Spot Dorker Launch
>>About the Same of What a Hera F3J >>Ship launches like Mike... it isn't the plane that rotates... it's the setup. ANY airplane will rotate like what you see Daryl do. (Given, some will pull harder than others, but they can ALL rotate hard) You could give Daryl any full house bird at an Sc2 or similar contest, and he would be able to set it up to rotate and launch hard, similar to his SchpotDorker. (Again, not all airplanes will launch high, even if setup well... some just don't do it.
