Re: [RCSE] This must be a very basic question about recievers
With The Multiplex evo and 4000 radios, all channels are assignable no matter what receiver. With most radios, you just move the plugs to the appropriate channels on the receiver.

Michael: You are certainly right about the fact that we do have some of the not great weather, which is why I put (relatively speaking) behind the great weather statement. So here is a clue direct from the weatherman...San Diego does have some hot and humid days, with an (very) occasional thunderstorm in the months of late July and August. And it has a rainy season during the first three months of the year. Hey, Michael...365 days of the same weather would be like being in Seattle:) P.S. We love those guys from the SASS group. They are our most dedicated group from outside California. So here is a clue of when to come to San Diego...the first full weekend in June. Oh! And while you are here, bring a HLG and have a great time competing in the IHLGF -- the most fun and flying time you can have in R/C Soaring.

You do a good job of promoting the event. And the Nats suffers from just the opposite on the weather. There were many years when soaring was stuck in the last week of July. By the last week in July, Muncie is usually hot and humid. Of course, every time I have been to San Diego, I have managed to get some of the not great weather. It's just not right to get hot and humid and thunderstorms in San Diego. Ron Scharck wrote: Steve: It really isn't fair to compare the NATS HLG event to the IHLGF. They are two entirely different cats. I use to attend the NATS on a regular basis, competing in most of the events, and I loved every single one of them. The LSF guys do a great job (in cooperation with AMA) of putting on a host of soaring events, most of which are very demanding from a personnel standpoint; and they only have a week to in which to cram all those events. I know that I am not telling you, or anyone else who reads this and has actually been to the Soaring NATS, anything new. In real estate, something I have a passing knowledge of, the three key words are: LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! The IHLGF has that in spades. When someone plans to come to the IHLGF, they can be assured of four things which few other locations can boast...and they all have to do with being located in Southern California: 1. Great weather, relatively speaking; 2. Great flying conditions (if you don't mind a dirt field); 3. A large contingent of very talented pilots; and, 4. One of the top tourist destinations in the world. In all of the years (12) the IHLGF has been held, there has only been two delays of starting the contest on time. Both had to do with an early morning misting. There has always been 6 rounds flown on Saturday and seven (including the fly-offs) rounds flown on Sunday. Those are the basic reasons why the IHLGF has been able to be as successful as it has been. Just the dumb luck of being in the right place at the right time!

Re: [RCSE] Contest Cosmo WAS: JR Aero tow Reply
Steve, In my opinion the low attendance for the NATS HL is not because of location. It is mostly because it is a one day event. HL is quite a bit different than the other soaring classes in that it does not have as much cross over. Most people in this country are resource limited. They have a limited amount of time or money to devote to RC soaring. So, they have to pick one event and for many it is HL. For example, in the ESL's HL division this year I expect there to be upwards of 50 participants. Of those 50, I estimate that 30 or more are primarily focused on HL. Some will come from as far away as Canada, Florida, and Kentucky to participate. All of the HL contests in the ESL are 2 days which makes it worth the trip. I believe the same trend is true in other parts of the country. I know that there is a group in the North West that only flies HL (where DLG started). So, for these HL dedicated pilots, it is not worth it for them to travel to the NATS for a one day event. I know that if HL was all I flew, I certainly would not drive 7 hours for a one day contest. I would gladly drive the 7 hours for a well run two day contest (after all, I recently got back from flying across the country for a two day HL contest). From what I have observed at HL contests I believe that other HL competitors would make the same judgment. It is unfortunate that the LSF has elected to only have a one day HL event at the NATS. I estimate that if it was two day event, there would be on the order of at least 50 entrants. The LSF would benefit from the increased revenue. There would possibly be the added benefit of generating interest in HL fliers with the other soaring disciplines. I can easily picture some of the HL pilots sticking around to watch F3J and getting hooked. After all in this country there are not many opportunities to see an F3J event. That was one aspect I really enjoyed about the old NATS format (not that I think we should go back - the LSF format is s much better with regards to soaring) - seeing all the other modeling disciplines. CL combat was my favorite. . . For what its worth Tom RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] RE: RCSE] Soprano Feedback
Jim, you really need feedback from someone whom has logged time on both. I have not. I did buy Mark Millers prototype Soprano. I only have a few launches on it but understand why the rudder was increased on current offerings. Since I have seen no better responses I offer the following thoughts - mainly for those with out a lot of experience. Without any good support for my thoughts FWIW J - I think if you have full house experience, you will find the Soprano both a good floater and penetrator. I suspect the AVA my be a better floater (lighter) but may not penetrate as will as the Soprano (just my guess).For a flyer not experienced with modern high performance soarers, the Ava (or Topaz) may be the choice. That should not be seen as criticism of the Soprano but a suggestion that it flys like a modern high performance ship. If you are new to this sport (especially if you have limited funds) skip expensive planes like the Soprano and Ava (untill you have wiped out a few cheaper planes they are available). Not because they would be more difficult to learn on; because things do happen (and will) ask Gordy. The only criticism I have is not with the planes (and certainly not with Kennedy or Miller) but with the designer/makers that do not make parts that are interchangeable. Let me explain: After receiving the Soprano and admiring it, I heard about the Trio and Piper http://www.isthmusmodels.com/ and thought I could buy one of them and be able to swap wings with the Soprano. Sorry too logical! Now before any one takes this too seriously (and takes me to task), understand these thoughts are just that not fighting words. The wonderful thing about this sport is all the choices - and they are mostly all good. Regis Ok, so who's flying a Soprano out there? Let's hear some feedback! I would like a big RES plane and am trying to decide between Soprano and AVA. Cheers - Jim Laurel RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

I highly recommend ordering the wiring kit, motor, switches and other stuff from Tom Bianchi at Injoy Line Coursing. With Tom's wiring kit, my son and I were able to assemble the winch in just an evening! http://www.injoy-1.com/catal_sail.htm Here's the full wiring package with switch, solenoids, etc. http://www.injoy-1.com/images/sailimage/conplete%20cable%20set.jpg I also installed a voltmeter on mine, which is great for a quick indication of battery condition. I also installed Cal Posthuma's LED with sound solenoid failure warning system. Works great. --Jim -Original Message- From: Thomas Martin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 1:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; RSCE Subject: [RCSE] Re: Winches Thanks to all who responded on the winches. Looks like the superskeg winch that I have already been in contact with is the best value for purchasing 2 or more. Any ideas on good material for scale decals from the color inkjet printer?

How about some feedback on different types or makes too? Hi Tom, I use two of Tim McCann's winches here now for about 4 years, with no problems what so ever. I built them from his kits easy.

Re: [RCSE] Contest Cosmo WAS: JR Aero tow Reply
Actually what I wanted to do was go to the JR Aero tow. I had the joy of being on Jury Duty the past two weeks. Fortunately I had vacation plans for the Nats and F3j TS so when they asked if there would be any hardship on serving on a case that was expected to run well into August, 4 days a week, soaring saved the day! Hopefully I'll make the Aerotow next year. I have the 1:2.9 Foka that I just don't get enough flying on and a 1:3 Salto and 1:4 B4 that also need some flying time.
