Re: [RCSE] Question about shipping to Europe
US air parcel is the cheapest, if the package is under a certain size and weight, it can be shipped as a "small packet" for less. If it is small enough to be stuffed into a flat rate global priority envelope and under 4lbs. it can go anywhere for under $10.00 Mark Mech www.aerofoam.com - Original Message - From: "Dan Ashenfelter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 4:56 PM Subject: [RCSE] Question about shipping to Europe Is there any method other than US Parcel Post to send a package to Europe without spending a small fortune?

RE: [RCSE] Looking for built HL Encore
Tom, Not sure if your friend will be interested in this, but I do have a NIB (javelin launch) PsykoLogic for sale: $150. A new Logic DLG costs $329. This is the plane: http://www.nesail.com/detail.php?productID=13 Ignore the bit about it being a DLG, etc. I'm not sure what would have to be done to convert this plane to a DLG, or if it's even possible. But if your friend is specifically looking for a javelin style HLG, this would be great. --Jim Laurel -Original Message- From: Tom Gressman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 8:01 AM To: soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] Looking for built HL Encore My friend is looking for a built javelin type Maple Leaf Encore.

[RCSE] Ford Long Shaft Motor
Hi Rick, I did the same thing a few years back. You need to pull the armature and clip the leads going to the smaller winding in the field. You will need a piece of coat hanger wire to form a brush holding do-hickey when replacing the armature back into the case. Overall I did NOT see much improvement. You can get someone (or yourself) to REPLACE the 12 volt field coils with six volt coils, leaving out the shunt as well. I am running this set up now. Not quite a NATS power winch, but close. Launch practicing with this setup is much more like true contest launch. Brent Hoover RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

RE: [RCSE] sailplane info wanted
I own a Vulcan2M. It is a very nice sailplane. One thing though -- when you balance the sailplane according to the specs in the instructions it will have a very aft CG and be quite twitchy to fly. I would recommend moving the CG between 1/4 to 1/2 inch forward. I usually launch the sailplane by which or hi-start and then head out to search for thermals. It handles fine with a quick roll rate but it is sensitive to pitch. I like the sailplane a lot and fly it frequently. Cameron Ninham RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Klaus Wess To Muncie,,, Flights of fancy!
Hi Klaus, It would be a great bit of interest to see you flying that RNR Genesis all fixed up with lots of epoxy, but I doubt the airlines would allow it in the weight limit for baggage! I was only 7 places behind you at the Heathcote Cup comp in Feb, and I was flying a 2m . hm You flew really well at Heathcoate and while I had hoped to win there again this season..it wasn't to be. Carl Strautin (Aussie F3J Team Member) had his soaring hat on, his Sharon tuned up and eyes that could see in that dark sky haze! My zero flight because of my canopy falling off on that launch and the following two short launch line breaks might have had some effect on my standing that day :-) However kudos to you! 7th out of 6 pilots flying is still quite an achievement! :-) (just kidding!) What's new in Sydney soaring this seasonseen any Shadows yet? :-) Gordy
Re: [RCSE] JOJO To Muncie,,, Flights are expensive!
Gordy. how about me? I can't fly for nuts, but I can talk with an Aussie accent, and can wear my Steve Irwin clothes. Maybe you could loan me one of your models, so I can try F3J :) Start digging deep for my sponsorship. Really though, I hope you can sponsor JoJo - half his luck. Although... come to think of it, I was only 7 places behind you at the Heathcote Cup comp in Feb, and I was flying a 2m . hm! Klaus WeissSydney, Australia.http://www.hsl.org.au

[RCSE] RE: sailplane info wanted
The Vulcan had a 7012 airfoil which was a bit of getting use to. It is a fast airfoil and for my friend, who owned one, had difficulty trying to get it to thermal. I never thought it was a good choice for a 2m ship. None the less, the plane looks great! Ed Sleger always had an eye for nice looking designs. Good luck.

RE: [RCSE] sailplane info wanted
One of the DARTS guys, John Schmoll, used to show up at the field with a Vulcan. I remember it was very clean looking, very quick - reminded me a lot of a Super V. Of all the times I recall him flying it, I never saw it thermal - not that it can't. He used to set it up, winch it as hard as he could, then do aerobatics with it until he ran out of steam. Reminded me more of a Swift than anything else. It's a beautiful ship; the image of him doing slow rolls in a dive over the field will always remind me of why I love sailplanes.

[RCSE] RC heli at slope
Hi, all In this winter I flew small RC electric helicopters, XRB SR Lama (Hirobo) and Hummingbird Elite CP (Centruy RC Helicopter), at my living room. Now I plan to fly RC helicopter as a rotor wing glider or powerless autogyro at slope. I think some modifications are needed: adding a fin and a rudder for yaw control instead of tail rotor. I also think that collective pitch control is a must and bigger helis are better. Any tips or advice are all welcome. Thanks in advance, Osamu RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] JOJO To Muncie,,, Flights are expensive!
The airline ticket looks expensive. Just tested travelcity.com Air France $1243 American $1284 Delta $1317 United $1382 Continental $1449 Hi Guys, Okay for you guys who have no interest, feel free...to participate! :-) "Why JoJo?"... This year LSF is featuring F3J at our Nationals, as part of the fun and to make it even more representative of the World scene of F3J, some of us are doing what we can to bring Jo Grini over from Norway, Jo's a great guy and rc soaring contributor (http://www.grini.no/diary) or (http://www.grini.no/), but also one of the top contest Soaring guys in his part of the world. This effort as spurred World F3J Champion David Hobby of Melborne Australia to finagle his work schedule to conicide and there is a possibility of Colin Lucas (English Nationals Champ and British F3J World Pilot) attending too...not to leave out Doug Pike of Canada and ???. The "Lets bring JoJo to Muncie" started as a fun idea but has now blossomed into inspiration for international top pilots to take some notice.. However, David is traveling with work, Colin picks a free fight because of his other flying buddy being an international airline pilot, but Jo...he's on his own coin... JR has provided Radios Barry Kennedy is providing airplanes so that Jo can compete in all events (some electtric too!) Modelers who have become email pals with Jo are providing a room and transportation,,,but the ticket is tough and we are about half way there with help. Jim Bacus leads the way with $250 with Larry Jolly and Michael Volz just behind, donations have come from the East, Midsouth and the slopes of California it won't take many of those to get this chiseled down..or just a little from each of you Nationals pilots and F3J World Team guys. Jo will bring some fun and interest to F3J in general...and to all the events. Send the donations to my address: Gordy Stahl9303 LeBeau CtLouisville Ky 40299 (anyone have some frequent flyer miles they need to dump?) The airline ticket looks expensive. Just tested travelcity.com Air France $1243 American $1284 Delta $1317 United $1382 Continental $1449
