From: Mario Marzocchi ( Florence- Italy ) ___ ! [EMAIL PROTECTED] --( )- http://users.iol.it/maudib thanks a lot to Ollie, George, Clarence,Richard and Tord for explanations. In italy we do something similar: we start from a mountain ( S. Marino State ) and we go to land in a field near an italian village in the less time we can. Many years agò there was a competition from Cortona ( mountain ) to camucia ( in Tuscany ). I was there and i had a lotta fun. Time agò, I read that SD 6060 is for "cross country" (in prof.Selig volumes) and i did not understand what it was. I thought something about that but not to a competition like this. Fantastic! I guess that planes must be very light but good runners too. I "know" Joe Wurtz; I have gotten his DS video. CYAOOO000oo Mario Marzocchi RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] ISR Slope Planes wanted
With the Davenport May 6, 7 International Slope race comming up, several people are looking for slope quality gliders to fly. A slope quality glider is typically an older, somewhat beat-up/repaired F3B ship that is no longer up to F3B precision. Old Synergies seem to be a very popular choice. Price should range from $200.00 to $500 depending on servo's etc... If you have any beaters you want to get rid of, now might be a good time to make some RCSE posts.

[RCSE] Charles River Radio Controllers Address Change
I just discovered that our old ISP didn't actually delete our account in February when we moved to our new home, and just started threatening me with reporting to credit agencies - even though I have a documented trail of them acknowleging the cancellation in February! (this is just the last in a long string of things that didn't go right with them) After a bunch of wrangling today I finally got the old site torn down and removed, and all the billing nonsense reversed/stopped. You wanna talk about some vendor bashing - boy could this experience get me going... In any case - here's why I wrote about this to RCSE: If your browser link pointed to the old site, you will now get a "404 - URL not found" message. Another tip is that the old site wasn't updated after January 5th! (old site address was http://www.addr.com/~crrc/. If this has happened to you, please go to http://www.charlesriverrc.org/ and bookmark our new permanent address. Sorry for using this space for indirectly soaring-related tech stuff, but it's pretty clear from our logs that a lot of folks from the RCSE community drop by - I didn't want people to wonder "what happened" if they were still pointing to the old site, not to mention wanting them to be able to get to newer content.

[RCSE] Tyvek adhesive?
What is the best way to use Tyvek (lightweight mailing envelope stuff) for hinges? It feels so smooth, I wonder if epoxy will stick to it well. Can you put a strip of it in a lay-up of glass over balsa to get a "living hinge"? I'll be experimenting with this a bit, but would rather stand on the shoulders of giants than re-invent the wheel.

Re: [RCSE] Recipe for DISASTER or just rantings of a Crumudgeon???
In a message dated 4/17/00, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: In my opinion, unless you're doing it for EXERCISE, throwing a ship upwards during an electric winch launch is NOT A GOOD IDEA. Well, it may not be a great idea, but it can be effective. We had a good demonstration yesterday at the monthly TPG contest. Ron Scharck (IHLGF fame) and I were flying the same plane (mine) and timing for each other. My launch style is the rear grip, lots of tension and a good LEVEL heave. The plane flies immediately, but requires 15-20 feet of air travel to rotate to the climb attitude. The climb attitude is very steep as the plane is set up to climb at maximum angle, but sometimes requires a touch of down at about the 30 degree line angle. The adjustable tow hook enables the hook position to be exactly positioned requiring no elevator compensation prior to launch. Ron's style is the forward grip, moderate tension, overhand throw with a slight 5-10 degree upward throw. The plane was immediately climbing, there was no transition air travel. The result was a launch 50 feet or so higher than mine. The air was good yesterday, so the launch height did not matter, but on some days, that extra 50 ft could make a difference. So will I use the forward grip? Probably not routinely as there is a difference in the physical capabilities of Ron and I. I am about 5' 11", 175 lbs and 65 years on the planet. Ron is 10 years younger, 6' 2" and mega mass. He can hold the line tension with his arm in back of him, where I cannot and I run the risk of having the elevator hit my head during the launch. So Ron will you launch my plane for me?? Don Richmond San Diego, CA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [RCSE] Need Futaba 7UGFS Frequency Module
When I ordered an extra module I inquired on what was in stock, purchased the closest to my desired frequency and then bought a crystal set for the frequency needed. Seems they do not stock odd channel modules, but the crystals they do. At 03:00 PM 4/14/00 -0600, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am looking for a channel 57 frequency module for a Futaba 7UGFS.
