Hmmm, I get to the LASS site, and when I click on anything to look at the 
scores, my computer blows up (OK, that's an exaggeration, I get dumped off 
line, even more effectively than using the close button). I NEED to see these 
scores, 'cause I fly against these Bacus, Meyers and Miller guys every 
weekend and I'm scared. :) (I mean I fly WITH these guys.)

Re: [RCSE] Strange behavior

2000-07-07 Thread Bill Swingle

Actually, it's not the light which is making the servo twitch. It's the arc
from the switch. When you switch off the light, the switch is interrupting
the electrical current. When it does this there is a minimal arc.

An electric arc is quite electro/magnetically noisy. The first intentionally
sent and received radio waves were generated by an arc.

My question is, if the leader board is based on the high scores, how
did Germany beat the US? Are flight scores counted for the team
championship that does not effect the standings?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[RCSE] Fly off rounds 1 & 2

2000-07-07 Thread Tom Copp

* Report from Team Norway.
*
* 7. July 17:40
First fly off:
Joe Wurts had two line breaks, and blew it! Larry Jolly landed early FAR out
(Ben CLerx had a LONG run to retrieve the model), Stefan Eder landed
early... Christer Lennartson flew a full round! Jan Kohout landed early.
Second round:
Joe Wurts made a "hero or zero" flight, far away alone, landed early...
Larry Jolly had a second landing, not coming back to the field! Jan Kohout
got applaus, maybe a 1000. Juniors starting now for two rounds, we'll be
back with more news! PS! The starting line with 15 models are LONG, so it's
very hard to give more details.

Re: [RCSE] Finding dead cell in a 7 cell pack

2000-07-07 Thread Art Mcnamee

Hi Al,
The dead cell will be easy to find with the use of pins as suggested, but
how do you change the cell without taking the pack apart?
Take the heat shrink off, change the cell and replace the heat shrink
tubing. It shrinks real easy with a hot air gun. Don't use too much
heat or you will have to do it again.
Regards, Art

Re: [RCSE] Building Surface Question

2000-07-07 Thread ScrollSander

Hi Matt,

I lived in Stillwater OK so I know what can happen.  You might try a door,
perhaps a composite door for the base then add a pinning surface to it.  I
have a door in my shop in NV and while we do not have th humidity, we have
dry air which takes away the water and warps the wood.

Good Luck.

Chris

Re: [RCSE] Building Surface Question

2000-07-07 Thread Bill Harris

I'll agree with Dick-- a hollow-core (interior) door is a great building surface.  
Support it in a frame, check for flatness and shim, and it'll last a long time.  Get 
36" wide.  Cost can be $25-35, less if you can get a "second".

--Bill

3/8" or 1/2" plate glass is the ultimate building board, though.

I obviously need the surface to withstand the high humidity we have here in
Texas. Please give me your suggestions?

[RCSE] Need airfoil design for a Pat Teakle / West Mendip Sailplanes ASW 20

2000-07-07 Thread Joe Hitzel

I am building a Pat Teakle / West Mendip Sailplanes ASW 20, 1:3.5 Scale
kit. I purchased the kit 2nd/3rd hand and have only one page/sheet of
drawings. There is no information included in the kit as to what airfoil
the wings (obechi over foam) have been cut to. Prior to glassing, I want
to detail the hardwood leading edge. Respond to RCSE or via direct
e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would appreciate anyone's help. Thanks!
