[RCSE] Bad Guy Alert

2008-01-15 Thread JAMES EALY
Hello Guys:
I just got scammed for $116 by Kevin Noone, Albany - that is the name given to
me! 
 
I suspect that I was the third person he scammed from conversations with him.
Won an old time vintage converted free flight to RC plane with large wing and
ignition engine.  Sounds familar to anyone?
 
Too late for Paypal claim - however, what the turkey doesn't know is that I
used AMEX and they will not take the scam litely.
Any one interested in more detail - actual emails from Ebay? Contact me off
list.
 
Jim

[RCSE] Help finding a needed part

2008-01-15 Thread Rick Eckel
I received the following request for help but I don't know of any 
available Stork tails.  Thought maybe one of you guys might be able to assist.


Thanks
Rick



Hi.  My name is Matt Galli from Oregon. I like to fly a
Stork - E.  The weak link for me is the V-Tail.  I am looking for 
another.  The model has been discontinued by Esprit so they have no 
tails.  Could you ask around to see if anyone has a tail for this 
plane they would sell or donate to my cause.  Any help would be much 
appreciated.


I can be reached at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or (541)218-1947.


Thanks,

Matt


Re: [RCSE] Real flight 3.5

2008-01-15 Thread John Erickson
At the AMA convention last Friday I demoed the FS-One.  They have a DS ridge
that I wanted to try, as well as the winch launch function.  I clicked on
the wind for the the DS ridge (25 mph) then tried winching the slope plane.
Straight downwind launch!  Couldn't get it to work.  Even when I kept
hitting the "winch tension" key no luck.

The two FS-One guys who were working the booth tried to get it to work but
they couldn't.  Couldn't figure out how to turn the plane around.

I found out later that you have to change the wind direction for launch,
then change the wind direction once again when you are in the air, or
something like that.

Cal,  

In RF 4.0 it is located under CAMERA POSITION X  ( handlaunch, or Bungee)
Handlaunch is the default.

I looked in instructions and saw nothing referring to launch of a sailplane.

[RCSE] Re: Real flight 3.5 ... you should have bought FS One

2008-01-15 Thread Doug Barry

Actually Mike understates (as usual),  FS One is much better.

He left out being the sailplane on aero-tow.
Actually it is a better helicopter simulation then the competition.

The fixed wing stuff ... you'll have to explore on your own ... I haven't.

Use the flying field called "Thermal Park." There are arrows showing 
various air currents, including some pointing more or less straight up. 
Mouse around until the plane is pointing right at one of the up arrows, 
but don't point the nose of the plane up. Just give it a level launch 
onto the up arrow, and then start circling. You'll climb out.


This is pretty cheesy, admittedly. The DS is really fun, however; even a 
novice like me can get in the groove and really scream.


I think that Horizon sells a simulator that has some kind of winch launch 
capability.
