[RCSE] Los Banos Bash

2006-03-24 Thread Bob Pederson
My thanks go out to Bill Swingle and the gang at Los Banos Sunday.  What 
a great bunch of guys.  I wonder if Mike would have handed me the 
transmitter to his Mongo Jr. if he knew I hadn't flown in over a year?  
All he asked was " Do you fly RC?" and of course, I said "yes".  He 
launched the Mongo and I was flying.  Not too much time to get used to 
the idea.  We flew combat for what seemed like an hour (my first time, 
please be gentle!).  You guys sure made my day.

Bob Pederson, RMSA

[RCSE] "Figured out why I've only been getting 2nd lately with my Giant!"

2006-03-24 Thread GordySoar



Its DP's fault, apparently when I had the lens replaced in my right eye, 
they gave me DP's!
 
Its been 2 years since I went completely blind in 2months, fixed in 2 days 
back to 20/20 and now noticing some loss of vision in that right eye.
Turns out there is some membrane just behind the lens that can also fog 
up, but its a walking, get lasered an walk out type thingso look out you 
kooky guys!  I'm gonna have two good eyes...this season :-) In a way I am a 
little disappointed cuz I wanted to get some of those cool distance optimized 
glasses, but this should put me back to 20/20might still get some glasses to 
make the 20/20 + :-)
 
Anyone else had Cat surgery and is flying since?
 
I think a lot of us don't realize its happened or happening, but the 
sun can cook the lens and make foggy, age, mostly genetics I guess.  Course 
the problem is insurance doesn't let you get the lens replacement till you are 
so blind you can't barely drive much less fly.  
I was lucky it happened start to finish in 80days instead of slowly over 
80years.
 
In any case with all this rage over Perfects and Supras, a lot of guys are 
missing out on readily available super ships like the Giant, Superior and 
definitely the X tail Sharon.
A huge benefit of the Giant is that it is in the current vain of not 
needing ballast to get places fast,in the wind or calm, it has huge surfaces, so 
its fun and gives you a lot of camber effectiveness too.  And its a nice 
slow lander too.
 
Bob at SoaringUSA.com says he has inventory of the light carbon 68 Giants 
coming in two weeks.  You just might want to get some money down...the 
season is here!
See you :-)
Gordy

2006-03-24 Thread Bill Heishman
You need to contact Marv Jensen of Jensen Jet Models.

He has all the good stuff for your micropro, including the newest eprom
update, written by one of the members of the Yahoo group.  There is also a 6
meter synthesized tx board designed for the MicroStar 2000 upgrade that can
be built and adapted to your transmitter.  Check out Gordon Andersons
website: http://www.mstar2k.com/ for more information.

Glider Guiders:

I lost some email addresses. Does anyone know who (Ham Tech Lic) can add a
Hitec
spectra Module to either the ACE MP8K or the new MicroStar2000. Or does
anyone
sell RF boards on Channel 16 for MicroPro 8000?
TIA

Jim, join this yahoo group  <>, ask the 
same questions and  receive all the answers that you can stand (and then 
some!).  The short  answer to both is yes.  Good Lift!

Re: [RCSE] CF on spruce spars

2006-03-24 Thread Dick Williamson
The Kevlar tow that I used is roughly an eighth inch wide.  The tow 
is basically a bunch of parallel fibers that are not bonded to each 
other.  While wrapping the spar, I have to take a little care to 
spread out the tow and not get twists in it.  Near the center of the 
wing, the wraps should basically be continuous, i. e., touching each 
other.   Less wrapping is needed in the outer sections.  On my 
Majestic I wrapped the entire spar with nearly touching wraps.


Regards,

Dick
