Re: [RCSE] brake/permanent magnet winch motor
How do they do it with subway cars? It's my understanding that when they put on the brakes on a subway car, they're actually charging UP batteries by using the motor as a generator.wouldn't the motors just keep running when connected to the batteries?

This will enable one of two mode operation. When solenoid is energized, it will select the battery +ve, or when de-energized will select a loading resistor. The other end of the resistor will be terminated to the motor -ve terminal (not the battery -ve terminal). In winch braking application we want to drain the energy out of the spool as soon as possible and that calls for highest possible of generator load (current) and therefore minimum resistance value should meet that demand. The minimum resistance, however, should not be any lower than the internal resistance in the winch battery under load at zoom-launch. Eventually, we are talking resistance a copper wire may provide, while a current rating of an solenoid that can handle about 500 amp. ROOT CAUSE: The other less apparent cause is in the winch line. When the line is loaded up with enough stretch, it will "shoot" back at the spool more than a spool can take, thus enabling chance for entanglement. A non-stretch line and/or a "giant" parachute should be considered. (However, that work against the stretching line principle) A mechanically correct view is to omit the braking assembly, instead, letting it free wheel after zoom and at the same time effect drag in the winch line (starting from) in front of the spool through the turn-around and up the O-ring end. That should address the problem at the source. The number of ways to implement that is limited by our imagination. Hope some of us will take it as an interesting new project. So keep us update on your progress.

Some how or other you are supposed to turn it into a generator and run it into a heavy load. Thankyou. Rick RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Have you visited recently - what does it look like now? Skip That pretty accurately describes it, but I remember looking down the south side and being able to see it a road and a picnic area about 200' below.

Fw: [RCSE] Queastion for the other kit MFG's.
How are these orders "strange". If they wanted to copy a model all it would take is one. - Original Message - From: "Aerofoam" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "RCSE" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, November 25, 2000 8:03 AM Subject: [RCSE] Queastion for the other kit MFG's. I have occasionally had strange order requests from Asian countries that are known for having a lot of sweat shops. I just recieved one today from a Korea model importer/distributor (he claims). I am usually very suspect about these orders because most of these countries don't have a local RC population to support the sales and I beleive they are just trolling for designs to copy. I have not replied to many of these in the past and was wondering what some of the other kit MFG's have done when approached by "Asian importers" Mark Mech [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.aerofoam.com RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Goop Differenceswas A chemical English Question
Thanks for that info which proves what many suspected. A nice squeeze move on your part to get it. Do they use perchlorethylene and/or trichlorethylene as solvents, i.e. nasty stuff that we can't buy and can't substitute? I have used mineral spirits and it kinda works but it is not completely satisfactory. Jeb Bushell Newtown Square, PA For the benefit of all (again).

[RCSE] Bliss!
Why didn't I know of this before?! I just quit RCSE subscription via AirAge.com and reenlisted via eGroups - what a difference! No more HTML (I can get it all back by ticking a box on the subscription page, but I don't need it - so good riddance!). Seems to take a day longer, but I can live with that, too!

[RCSE] fun,fun,fun
Hey guys Well yesterday I decided to go fly power.. I few guys from our glider guys showed up also with the same idea... Well we couldn't just fly power,, we had to start towing up the zagi.. with some kite string. no releases!! Sounds kinda iffy hey?? Well it worked great.. we even towed up a ninga... I fixed the string to the top wingbolt on my 5th scale cub. and to the nose of the gliders,, when we got high enough. I went to idle, and the glider just overflew me. we just put the hook on the nose of the glider and used a ring... Its fun to experiment charlie RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
