Re: [RCSE] Re: [RCSE ] Is anyone actually building something?
Paul, Keep it moving. Unless yours is much lighter than mine (about 38-40 oz.) it is not a floater. It has a relatively high aspect ratio and wing load and without any wing twist it has a pronounced tip stall. It does really scoot when you need t it to and is really fun on a slope with the ballast tubes installed. Don't try to save a flight on a hand launch thermal at 20 feet until you know where that tip stall starts. You may want to put an extra wrap of fiberglass at the transition of the fin to fuse, cuz that is where it will crack the first time you catch a wing tip on landing. Make sure the flexible pushrod sheaths are well anchored inside the fuse to prevent contol slop. Flies nice, just keep it moving. It will take a decent winching - watch the wing tips when you zoom. Startl easy then work you way to your comfort point. The tips start flexing from the point where the internal tubes end. I broke my T-tail when I launched it way too timidly last summer (broke my confidence late summer). I think I was probably a little nose light, too. - Original Message - From: Paul Jacobson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: soaring@airage.com Sent: Friday, February 04, 2005 9:49 PM Subject: Re: [RCSE] Re: [RCSE ] Is anyone actually building something?

I'm planning on flying it as is for the moment, and once I've accumulated some flying time/experience I'll most likely either try doing a spoiler retrofit to the existing wing or get the multi-function wing which has flaps and ailerons. My first foray into building since my early teens has been a bit of a (re)learning experience and I'm sure the second set of wings will be a whole lot closer to perfect. cheers Paul RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

thanks for the tips. I was speaking during the week to someone who mentioned the tip stall issue and suggested that a small amount of washout helped. I'm having all sorts of fun covering the the wings - I've got the profilm/oracover on cleanly and with no wrinkles, but made a mess of trimming the excess cleanly - what is the secret to clean straight trimming with mounted covering?

Re: [RCSE] copyright infringment info
Difference between Patent and Copyright: A patent is a set of exclusive rights granted by a government to an inventor or applicant for a limited amount of time (normally 20 years from the filing date). The term patent originates from the term to patent which means to lay open (to public inspection) and the term letters patent, which originally denoted royal decrees granting exclusive rights to certain individuals or businesses. Copyright A copyright provides its holder the right to restrict unauthorized copying and reproduction of an original expression (i.e. literary work, movie, music, painting, software, mask work, etc.) It is a legal right (usually of the author or composer or publisher of a work) to exclusive publication production, sale, distribution of some work. What is protected by the copyright is the expression, not the idea. Notice that taking another's idea is plagiarism, so copyrights are not the equivalent of legal prohibition of plagiarism. By law, copyright exists from the time of creation of an original work of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression. Today there is no need to put a copyright notice to have a copyright. Registration is not required to bring an action for infringement, but if the copyright was registered prior to the infringement, certain statutory damages are available which are not available if the copyright is not registered. It is a matter of good practice to place a copyright notice which includes the copyright holder and year of creation (e.g Copyright, JHU, 2001). Changing items, which include some new work and some work created in prior years can include the multiple years (Copyright, JHU, 2000, 2002). Since the Alpina is not a scale model, but an original artistic creation, I would think it would fall under this category. However, if there were substantial modifications/improvements and the name itself was not used, then it would be a different plane altogether. Producing scale planes is a different matter. Anyone may make their own version of ASW27 for example. But to copy an Escape, Emerald, Taboo, etc. to sell in the market place would be considered an infringement on the original creator's rights.

RE: [RCSE] copyright infringment info
Well it turns out Ed was not considering ripping off Multiplex, but he, I think, naively thought Hitec would let him make it here while multiplex makes it Germany. Anyway you are partly right, but it all depends on where and how you make an ASW-27. For example if you own proprietary tooling and someone makes a new tool from a positive from your molds, that's infringement. I know of a case where in the Czech republic customs seized molds made this way by an unscrupulous Dealer. The slightly altering and renaming goes on all the time with non scale stuff and why it is useless to try to copyright a fun fly airplane, reference the Zagi, look at all the look alike forms of that one. Laws vary in different parts of the world.

[RCSE] JR Repairs
Who does repair service on JR radios? TIA John
[RCSE] 9303 question
Some questions about the new JR radio: Is the R700 and /or R770 receiver of a form factor conducive to the usual 3 meter sailplane fuse dimensions? Can the TX be easily converted by the user to Mode one operation? (mode one is elevator and rudder on the left stick) My present Futaba 8UAX makes the conversion very simple. I have owned transmitters which were very difficult to convert. Can the transmitter operate in a standard FM mode such as would be compatable with a normal FM receiver? Yes, I know the shift polarity does not match Futaba and Hitec but on 50 MHz band they are all the same so I plan on continuing to use my collection of FMA and Futaba receivers. I may have to reorder the servo connections however. Many thanks, Jim MacLean Melbourne, FL RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Kennedy Composites DLG,2m RES Hot at SWC
Well, since I did not place in the wood it really doesn't matter, but I flew a 2M Sagitta 600 (24 year old woody) in RES to a 6th place finish. Should have entered it in 2M for first place, but I thought it would be fun to fly in the larger class. It was nice to be battling in the top 2-3 in RES with this wonderful, if not classic, ship and still be competitive. In typical Justin (JustOn) form I blew the last RES round to take a drop of 4-5 places. No one to blame but myself. Just thought I'd give myself a pat on the back. Thanks to Darwin for CD'inga great contest and to Brian Carpenter for all of his VERY hard work as well.

Russ Young We would like to remind you of this upcoming event. SASS Club Meeting Date: Monday, February 7, 2005 Time: 7:00PM - 9:00PM PST (GMT-08:00) Club meeting, Rose Hill Jr High School, Redmond, WA, anyone is welcome! Guest Speaker: Jeff Johnson, program manager for aerospace projects at VulCan, Paul Allen's investment company, and former SASS member (before he got too busy doing really cool stuff) will share his experience with the SpaceShipOne project, making use of the extensive archive of video recordings, still photography, and personal recollections to give a behind the scenes view of this historic achievement. SpaceShipOne, a collaboration between Paul Allen and Burt Rutan's Scaled Composites, recently won the X PRIZE, flying twice into space within the span of 5 days. This innovative craft, using only private money, not only marks a great technical achievement but also the start of a new era in spaceflight. Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Group has licensed the technology with the intent of creating a fully operational space tourism business by the end of 2007. http://www.seattleareasoaringsociety.com/events/meetingschedule.htm RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Thanks to all for a great time! Darwin and crew run an efficient, yet relaxed contest. The air was challenging at times, making for a slightly thermal oriented event. Many of the top ten fell out in the last 8 minute round, shaking the scores up a bit. I think Edgar had me prior to the last round. Don't ask me who finished where I have no idea. I flew pretty well though. ;-) I flew an Insanity 3.7. 2nd place Mike Smith flew a Sharon 3.7. Hm... starting to see a theme here... ;-) Thanks to all the hard workers at CASL. I had a great time.
