Fellas,
I Know a bunch of guys who are not running duals and really should
be.
You Know who you are !!
The Kits that Cal offers is cheap, convenient, and easy to install.
While performing your preseason winch tune up, I Know that You all do
that,
why not install a sol kit as well.
I would have done this years ago, I just did not want to go track down
the parts !!
I just installed one of Cals kits on my BAT Winch, it looks great and it
works great !!

Thanks for the response. I think the Mylar type is what I am looking for.
The way this seal works is more like a wiper and I'd like the stiffness of
the Mylar. Let me know if you remember where you got it.

Just a note on the "hockey tape". I bought some at the local ice rink that 
didn't work out very well. The backing separated from the adhesive after 
awhile. The tape was kind of opaque on the roll and clear in one layer. 
Sorry I can't give you a brand name as there isn't one on the cardboard 
center ring.

  FWIW

[RCSE] New Year's Day Woody Postal Contest and Other Activities

2005-01-02 Thread Dan Borer



Hi All--
 
I told all of you that it wouldn't rain on our 
parade! We were worried though and so were the promoters of the Rose Parade and 
the Rose Bowl. If you saw either of these events on TV you saw our flying 
conditions since we are only a few miles east of Pasadena. We saw sun, clouds, a 
slight breeze and no rain. Beginning temps were in the low 40's, climbing to the 
low 60's and then dropping by mid-afternoon. Yes, some of the guys wore 
shorts.
 
Our day began at about 8:00 with Major and crew 
setting up the winch equipment. Meanwhile some of the electric guys tore up the 
skies with their Slow Stiks, PT-17s, Edge 540s, Tempests and hotliners. 
Once the winch was ready Mike Reagan hooked up his AVA for the first thermal 
flight of the year. When Tom Finch showed up with his new Vandal Mike handled 
the maiden toss and then maiden winch launch. I'm sure you will hear more about 
this molded plane real soon.
 
Larry Jolly assembled his old Comet, held a class 
on how to read the air using visible moisture (clouds) accumulation in the 
sky and then headed to the winch to begin his nearly 3 hour adventure. Most of 
the time the 16' span was difficult to see due to his altitude, especially when 
he flew into a cloud. Spoiler deployment and up elevator eventually resulted in 
the plane tumbling back into view. Others, like Merrill Brady, Henry 
Arance and Major Anderson, followed Larry's lead and while they had great 
flights couldn't keep up with the Comet. Sadly, Henry had to bail out of his 
thermal due to visibility issues and his Aquilitos shed a wing panel. The plane 
was destroyed but we all marveled as the shed wing went back up and eventually 
disappeared in the clouds.
 
The BBQ was fired up and lunch was served. Larry 
was still up there so he and his dog Baron shared a hotdog that was delivered to 
the flight line. Eventually Baron got bored and took a nap but woke up in time 
to see Larry land just short of 3 hours. That time, however, wasn't enough to 
have the longest flight in Ray's contest. It seems Arizona had some pretty good 
air too..
 
Overall, a great way to start a new year. Good 
friends, good weather, good contest, good memories. You can see how some of us 
did at http://www.swsapopoff.8k.com/PostalContest010105.htm . 
Pictures will be up soon.
 
Dan

There's a great hinge tape:  Frost King from Lowes or Home Depot.  It is a 
UV stable poly tape used for greenhouses.  It's 3" wide, so you do have to 
cut it.
I also found that clear Hockey stick tape from Dicks or any other sporting 
goods shop is fantastic for both hinge tape and wing tape.  Cheap also.

Try this:
Take packing tape and fold over the amount of non-sticky area you want and 
stick it to itself.  Press out on a nice flat surface. Cut to 1/4" to 1/2" 
sticky part (depending on what you are sticking it to)  makes a nice gap 
seal.
