Re: [RCSE] 3030 servo centering
Bill You have some small input to the servo from one of the mixers feeding that servo. It may or may not show in the servo travel or check if there is an input that is in there for the different flight modes. If not just center the servo as normal and then in the servo travel for one of the mixer inputs. On Mon, 13 May 2002 20:54:25 -0700 Bill Johns [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Why, when centering servos with the Profi 3030, you can put the servo dead on in centering mode, then when you switch out of centering mode, the surface jumps a bit. In order to get the surface at the desired position you have to center it off a bit so when it jumps it goes where you want it to. Most frustrating. Anyone??

[RCSE] CSS Memorial; 2 Contest Ships
Gz, well as CD of this event, I need to weigh in here. First, I did list this as a variation in the sanction application. There were earlier posts about two models in use at this contest. We beat this to death and back via the Rule 5 modification thread. The question was raised about two CD's and any variation. I pulled Sunday's CD Steve Siebenaler in on this after I had stated the two ship rule. My understanding is that he favors just one ship, but will put up with my shenanigans. He is a fine fellow and fine pilot. Jim Bacus makes some good points. One that was left out, was the simple ability of a pilot to go to a back-up ship which may be a beater when the wind comes up, weather gets bad etc. This is not something to benefit affluent pilots, but to help guys keep their good planes in one piece. Perhaps to help someone who has a nice ship, keep it that way in bad conditions. I CD'd a contest at Cincinnati where a bunch of guys lost nice planes due to very high winds aloft. 4 of 5 pilots in the top seeded bunch in the last round didn't make it back to the field. From my point of view, a good time to pull out a heavy beater and cross your fingers. Of course, this rule variation does allow a pilot to pull out a floater for the morning and something else in the afternoon. Unless you run a one design contest, there will always be considerable variations and advantages in ships. Traditional rule book events still pit the $1400 Icon against a Paragon. Most everyone shows up with a couple of ships, let them choose which one to play with. The guys that can fly, judge air, and land, will always do the best, no matter what set of rules you impose on them and often without regard to what they're flying. News flash! This is for fun, there is no big purse! Stumper's right you guys take this way too seriously. Enough; hope to see you guys in Cincy to fly and have fun with a bunch of good pilots.

Re: [RCSE] Kulbutin by TopModels Answer
I saw one in Switzerland recently, very nice kit, kind of ugly. The trick of it is that the full flying stab can be made to move 90 degrees for some crazy tricks, like square loops and tumble flips. Very pre fab, not a lot of work to do and lots of instructions including details on doing some of the 3D manuevers. I would say that it is a light air sloper that can do more tricks than you can :-) Gordy Abilene TX tonite
Re: [RCSE] Kulbutin by TopModels
I have one sitting here, nice looking and well built. Wil at SE did a write-up a month or so ago. It will make for an agile sloper, and should be fairly forgiving. It's pretty lightweight as well. If I build it, I won't hesitate to redo it color-wise (paint, etc.), and add a solid metal rod to increase it's flying weight.

Re: [RCSE] DS foamies
Andy, I really like the Gulp from Steve Drake in SoCal. It is a 60 inch wing that is really strong, has a cool pre shaped fuselage and vertical stab, and has taken all the DS abuse I can dish out. It is also seems to be faster and turn better than other, more popular EPP DS wings.
