[RCSE] Re:Marking center line on fus plug
Prop the plug up on a flat board with the fin cl horizontal. Tape a piece of drafting pencil lead (even 0.7mm lead will work) to a triangle at the right height. Run it around the plug. Voila cl. Best to use soft lead and you may have to make a couple of passes. This has the added benefit (???) of showing how straight and symmetrical your plug is.

[RCSE] forget about antenna tubes!!
Sorry this is late, been busy. I want the low-tech of the year award for this one. I used to use all the various antenna tubes so far mentioned, one day in an emergency I came up with this. Get a piece of 1/8 or 3/16 x 48" sq. balsa (remember that stuff), tape the end of the antenna to one end of the strip, shove it down the fuselage, break the balsa strip at a convenient place, tape it down, done. Takes about 2 minutes, no glueing, easily removed, etc. Mike Clancy RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You don't get something for nothing. > Dave, It is undoubtedly true that the servos will draw a higher current from a five cell pack. For the same battery capacity a higher current will exhaust the battery in a shorter time. Probably this means that the safe flight time will also be shorter, but I am not sure. My observation is that the servo movement is faster when using a five cell pack. So perhaps the higher current is used for a shorter time. I have no idea what current a typical servo draws under various conditions, holding in neutral, moving, holding with controls deflected etc. But if the current required to move the servo is significantly higher than that used to hold a particular position, the loss of flying time capability might be less than expected. I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other, but there must be others out there who know about these things. *** Ian RoachKiama, NSW Australia [EMAIL PROTECTED]Phone: 61 2 4232 1775 *** RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Ds tape?/
Is there a new one? The ones I know about that feature lots of DS are "Lift Ticket" (http://www.reeseproductions.com/), and "Endless Lift 2" (http://www.radiocarbonart.com). The former feature about 40 minutes of solid DS footage, the later much less. If it wasn't either of these tapes, please let us know what you find.

[RCSE] For Sale
I need to reduce the number of open sailplanes that I have (too many planes, not enough time). 1) Addiction - 122" quad tape wings with 7037 airfoil. The plane only has a few flights on it and is in excellent condition. I am willing to sell it with or without servos, receiver and battery. Currently I have Multiplex MCv2 Micros for flaps and elevator, Hitec HS 85MG for ailerons and rudder. The receiver is a Hitec Superslim 8ch setup for Airtronics with a new 1100 ma battery. RTF with servos, receiver and battery I am asking $900. Without servos, receiver, and battery I am asking $590. In both cases, shipping is extra. 2) Molded Psyko - with the square joiner rod. The plane is in excellent condition and has a minimum number of flights. Wing span is 124" with a 7035 airfoil. White on top, blue on bottom with fluorescent orange trim on top of wing (which can be easily removed). I am asking $575 for just the plane, no electronics 3) Wing Bags -a set of light blue nylon foam padded wing bags that fit an 2 piece open ship wing (up to 124"). I am asking $50 plus shipping the wing bags. E-mail me offline for pictures and any other details at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks Chuck RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
