There are no more 2 Meters available. Maybe a 2M ARF will work? :-) Maybe I'll just fly my first glider, a 2 Meter Wanderer. Nostalgia and 2 Meter deserve to be together.

[RCSE] ADVICE NEEDED: Lightest electric 2m with landing control?
Ok, I am looking for the litest weight glider with landing control in the two meter class. I want to build it, from plans, I want it to be simple and quick. Power will be 3s1p 2100, at around 400 watts (probably a mega direct drive), I want vertical performance to 300 feet. The wing must be multiple pieces. I would like AUW to be 30oz or less, and should be able to penetrate wind. Any thoughts... Jay
[RCSE] Supra wiring harness/ballast tube ?
hi, what are you guys doing with the Molex connector on the Hoopes harnness when you plug the wing in, when using a ballast tube ? are you folding the wires over and laying the plug in the fuse, or opening up the hole in the wing and tuck the plug up in there ??

Re: [RCSE] ADVICE NEEDED: Lightest electric 2m with landing control?
I was thinking the winddancer, but its a bit high for me... and its 3 meters... The reason I want it relatively small and light is because there is a field in my residential neighborhood that I could fly a floater in, but should something go awry I would want any crash damage to anyone else to be minimal.On 5/16/06, George Voss [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Polecat Aero's Wind Dancer.

Sorry, I stand corrected the Winddancer is the 2 meter version. Curious about how this would compare with a Chrysalis?

Re: [RCSE] Supra wiring harness/ballast tube ?
Mr. Corven, I certainly hope that comment was made in jest, because if not it is very much out of line. Dave Hauch is always willing to share the neat little tricks he has come up with through the multiple builds he has been doing lately. Also, he never really said he could fly competitive F3B without a Team, he just said it did not require a team to practice it. Not everybody is blessed with having multiple flying buddies interested in F3B to be able to form a team to practice with, so for Dave to have figured out a way to get out and practice the tasks on his own should be commended not ridiculed. With attitudes like yours, I wonder why more people aren't rushing to join the fun. See Ya, Pat McCleave Wichita, KS Ps, Dave H., check with either Jim Porter or my brother, they can probably help you with your harness question. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; RCSE soaring@airage.com Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 9:01 PM Subject: Re: [RCSE] Supra wiring harness/ballast tube ?

[RCSE] Re: ADVICE NEEDED: Lightest electric 2m with landing control?
Gordy, Thanks for the reply, I took your comments as you meant them. A bit of background on me: I mainly fly fast electric sailplane (warm and hotliners). The only competitions I have been in have been the F5B contests in VA and in Canada. I went to the Polecat DLG competition last year. I performed miserably but I enjoyed the contests. A friend of mine told me that if I wanted to compete I should turn to the thermal competitions. Hence my interest in a light cheap easy to build 2 meter. I definitely want to build my plane. Its one of those if I build it I know it better vibes. That said, I have the following planes: Stratos SLE Thermik XL 4 meter RW2 F5b FVK bandit Victor F5B Parkzone Typhoon (that will be sold as soon as I find someone to give me $99) Stack of SGII cores (cut by me on my feathercut), CF, Tailbooms, DLG pods, FG and lots of building materials (but I don't think I am ready to use this stuff). The problem with all of these planes is that I need a lot of room to fly them so that means a trip to the field. I want something simple and easy that I can fly hands off so I can take care of that 'itch' So maybe I will just go with the Winddancer as I am used to performance. Is there anything else that's comparable to the Winddancer that I can build in a kit? JayOn 5/16/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Jay, Fact is this..no one on this list actually dabbles with electric gliders of any sort, the exception are the guys who have an F5J Sp400 competition ship, the model alone without gear starts at $350, and they need a minimum 8 channel computer TX. Planes like the Chryslis are considered toys for soaring. Don't get me wrong, the fly great and are great, but they don't fit into any real category of competition, so aren't often bought or built by the guys on the RCSE. The Wind Dancer is a serious sailplane and a serious competition electric. I own a Pulsar 2005, full house electric, maybe the top competition ship in the market today...and I have flown it twice in 2 yearsyawn :-) So if you notice that you aren't getting much response, its because we don't have anything to offer. The best plane to get is the one that gets you in the air fastest, as in flying. Weight has little to do with performance. Houses are heavy, have no servos, or flaps or airfoils but often fly for miles at a time...in Kansas. You see if you find lift with a sailplane, it will stay up. The key words are these YOU find lift. You won't learn to find lift with out flying. Chose a plane and fly it.. a lot. Good luck. Gordy I fly sailplanes more often, more places in the world,with more guys, than anyone else on Earth.
