[RCSE] Wanted J J Industries American Eagle Plans...
Hello, Back when I started flying gliders the American Eagle glider was one of all time favorite gliders. Is there anyone out there that might have a set of plans that I could get a copy of? I got out of the hobby in the mid 1980's, and like a fool I let go of the 2 American Eagle's I had at that time. Now that I am getting back into the hobby again I would dearly love to scratch build another American eagle to bring back some of that enjoyment I had back then. I spent 100's of hours flying my American Eagle's and I would just love to build myself another. I will gladly pay what ever it costs to get a copy of these plans.

[RCSE] A bridesmaid again.....Newark's Challenge:-)
Conditions were similar, but today I had my allergy meds and could see, the thing I apparently couldn't do was engage brain! I decided to fly my favorite, the Pike Giant...I do love this plane ;-) Winds were really strong already, easily up to yesterday's best blow. It didn't worry me because I have had plenty of experience with the Giant in winds. No ballast was the call, and there were birds working low level tree top stuff, and the air was active. First flight had me worried but I hooked up kind of low and skied out. I thought I was relaxed but when I lined up on the tape during the approach I misjudged the wind, and over flapped for a direct in line shot at the tape...one foot short. :-( ARGH! Two more flight, same result but I was closing inthe last one was only an inch short! I walked around the group asking anyone to knock my mind back in synch but in the end I had to do it myself. I didn't ballast all day and had no trouble getting air, and keeping the rest of my landings above 95. Delaware's top TD pilot had a hot hand a brilliant caller...me :-) he was a landing machine, and flew some amazing flightsjust got crushed on one ice cold flight, which knocked him to fourth, Joe (newlywed/Mooneyman) Melchoir. Mike Lachowski didn't have as good of a day, often having to use his uncanny skills to work air smoothly to get times and missed a few landings. That left the door open for me, but his last flight was a max with a 100 landing, and my three zero landings, put him 200points up on me. Everyone there had some great flights, and the Sportsman group are really a talented bunch of thumbs. Lots of Mantis' flying out this way, and I was reminded of just how talented that plane really is. If you have not flown at this field, its is crazy good...and the hospitality second to none. Back to work,if you can call it that :-) Gordy

[RCSE] Got a 2:38 flight with the World's Heaviest Carbon Supra today!
Woke up, got out of bed, wash my hair and dried my head... ALERGIES...were killer today in Delaware25mph averages, my eyes felt like they had been torched with a propane torch! Wind blowing, eyes burning and wateringmy flights reflected it toougly. There was lift and Mike Lachowski was in it most of the day. He was totally intuitive today and I watched every flight he made. Every once in a while you see a flight that is pure music,,,that was Mike today. Landings were totally unpredictable today, even Mike ended up short on two. My eyes helped me put my WHCSupra's nose just over the landing line twice. Once I got some pills and eye drops going, things changed! Joe Melchoir, Delaware's top TD pilot, made the giant save of the day flying his old Mantis (Vtail no less :-). There are a LOT of Mantis out this way still flying well too. He was stuffed, I was timing. I advised him to forget, come in and make the landing at least. It was smeg the whole way back to the zone, but as he approached from the down wind side, about 30' high, I saw the plane react to sweet smooth lift and told him to take a wrap...he did and instead of a 3min flight he took it out for a max! One plane got into the trees, the flier likely had watering eyes too, but he managed to get it down easily with no damage. VERY few line breaks but to their credit, John K, CD allowed one pop off per day...which allowed everyone a fair chance. The wind was blowing, but I didn't hear one complaint about it. The attitude out here is SOOO positive, and so thankful that they have such and incredible facility (thanks Dick Dupont!), that their it makes it pretty easy to keep a great perspective. It was an 30min window to launch and the entire downwind side is a road and subdivison, that is off limits,which should have made us crazy, but we just worked out patterns out in front. I my last flight of the day was a 2:38 in a 7 min round :-( And I had ballast in, hit the 93 and chalked the day up to some dumb thumbs and bad decisions, thinking back on my flights and mistakes. In the end it was Mike L, first place by a bunch, John Jenks in second, flying a supra-esque home built, he was in the zone with it too, I managed third, my host Bill, took fourth flying a Pretty Mantis. Joe Melchoir brought up the rear with 5th place, and he hadn't flown for nearly a year (he's been building a home and got married too!) Yes I ballasted up the WHCSupra, it needed it. This makes it the third time I have flown the plane, and have to tell you, it really is that good of a plane. I don' t know the plane yet, so find my self battling it when I should be listening to it. And yes it is the prettiest plane on the field today :-) Tomorrow's another dayso for now, sipping Champaign and eating nachos... Gordy

Now please ONLY in the glass version...

Antenna is stretched and glued as a Y antenna. Probably enough with only one direction but I wanted most angles covered. Antenna wire is the thinnest I could find in my box.

Re: [RCSE] Multiplex ASH 26
Hi David, Been a few years... Stainless steal blade joiners are glued into the wing receptacles, and brass rectangular pockets are secured within the fuselage. Small offset clips (brass again) set the dihedral, and were secured within and up against the fuselage wall that held the brass pockets at either end. I modded the system by elliminating the clips and silver-soldering the brass pockets together, setting my own dihedral. After a blade failure on an LS-3 way back when, I removed the entire system and jigged/drilled the wing roots for brass tubing and used a nitride hardened rod. It lasted up (and including) it's demise. I have some of the blade material I picked up in Europe some time ago, I'll check it's dimensions if you like.

Re: [RCSE] Multiplex ASH 26
Title: Re: [RCSE] Multiplex ASH 26 David, I think the ASH26 has the same system as my Alpina 4001. It has the floating system. The joiner does not touches the fuselage. The 12 mm steel rod goes into the brass tubes in two wing halves, thru a hole in the fuselage. The hole is about 2 mm bigger than the rod. There are 4(2 on each side) pin that glued into the root ribs and you have to match drill the holes in the fuselage. I think you can find the instruction in the Tangent sailplanes. If not I may be able to find the Alpina instruction and mail it to you. If you have the 12 mm rod, then everything else can be home made.
