[RCSE] Paging Taylor Collins - again
Hi Taylor Them thar pesky injuns are at it again - comcast still bouncing all mail from any of my (3) completely separate accounts. Obviously the RCSE list emails are getting through as I received your reply to it. Is there another email address I can send the files to - hotmail would even be an option (even though I run a Mac :-)) ? My sincere apologies to the list for taking up this bandwidth - all in the good cause of committing aviation. Best regards Neil RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Re: Soaring V1 #8476
Ryan, This is a most interesting comment. If you can make a radio do this I would love to know how. I have seen the ability to address both flaps independently as a key divider between radio classes. Radios like the Hitec Optic 6, Futaba 7C, the JR 6102 and now the JR 7202 and the DX7 are highly capable radios that do now support a 4 servo wing. If that can be overcome via some mix process I would really like to know how to do it. Then you could trim them independently AND have the flaps follow the ailerons for lower drag roll input. I help a lot of new flyers and this would be very useful in setting up their planes.

So I would not expect the Spectrum DX7 to be able to handle a 4 servo wing or have any sailplane specific programming. Ed, I would not go that far. I read through the DX7 manual, and it has 6 free mixes. With free mixes you can do things like manually setup dual flaps or manually setup aileron to flap mixing. Granted, it might not be as functional from a contest glider perspective as something like the 9303, but I suspect you could run a 6 servo glider using this transmitter.

[RCSE] Hitec Eclipse???
Hi all, a friend of mine has 2 of these radios and has posed a question about the sets to me, I can't help solve it though. Basically the Tx's have 2 rotary pots that adjust the flap throws, together( both up or down) and separately ( one up and one down). Both are situated on the top of the Tx, one on each side of the aerial mounting plastic thingummy. Now forgive for thinking this is a kinda stupid option to put on a Tx unless you can adjust the throws or simply switch them off. I am not that familiar with the sets so if any you knowledgeable bunch can tell me how to sort out these functions I will be delighted to pass the info on. It would be nice to adjust the (flaps together) rotary to give a small percentage of their throw so that the pilot could set the Tx to have launch flap option on the rotary. The other one we can switch off completely. If this does not make sense to an Eclipse expert please get back to me for more in depth details from this end, thanks.

[RCSE] Winch Solenoids
Our club had a fly fly/annual picnic yesterday. We had installed dual solenoids on our winches and one of the winches failed with almost disastrous results. Both solenoids shorted out at the same time. The only thing that saved us was our cutoff switch. I always thought the odds of both solenoids failing at the time was very high, it's not, this was the first time we used the winch. We used Cole Hersee 24059 solenoids. I communicated with Tim McCann and will replace the solenoids with the Cole Hersee 24037 solenoids he recommends. Tim says that the 24059s are rated at 84 amps while the 24037 is rated at 750 amps.

[RCSE] Espada R Question
Hi Guys, The Espada R comes with a coated stainless steel antenna wire (cable) that is routed out the top of the fin. Does anyone know where you can get something like this? It appears to be about .014 diameter and has a plastic coating. I would like to get some of this stuff to use in carbon/kevlar fuselages.
