[RCSE] Sinha Deturbulators
Been reading about them for years, with initial skepticism, but growing excitement the past year or so. This months SOARING has them featured in Bill Collum's column, soaring tech, June 2008 page 19-22 Heady stuff! I'm sure many here are aware already, and hopefully some are already testing somewhere... or maybe some already know why this isn't gonna work...

Re: [RCSE] (Gay?) Caballeros, 2.4, Attention Everyone, Including Gordy and Martin Usher
Martin, does that mean that the FASST system will operate on both 2.4Ghz and 72Mhz??? No. You could actually do frequency hopping and similar techniques at 72MHz but you'd annoy all the current users (and the FCC). Techniques like FASST are similar to those that keep your (digital) cordless phone from interfering with your neighbors' phones and any WiFi that you and they are using. All radio systems do is transmit information coded on some radio frequency energy. One of the big tasks the receiver has to do is select the wanted stream of information from every other one that's out there. The original way -- and the one we've grown up with -- is by selecting the base frequency that the information is encoded around, so you 'tuned' your radio. This is now very old school; we still do it for older, legacy, equipment but its now not the way things are done, its to inefficient. One way of thinking about this is to raise the frequency of the radios up a bit until they're so high they're using visible light. (Light is the same sort of energy as radio, just a lot higher frequency.) Each frequency -- channel -- corresponds to a different color. So the radio we've grown up with is a bit like having a world where information -- say road signs -- are in different colors, with each person (or group of people) having to use a color filter to pick what they want to see out of what would otherwise be a lot of white light. Of course, we don't do that in the real world. We use a mixture of color, shape and animation to make a message stand out; this is our world so we don't think its anything special. All that's happening with the radios is that they're getting smart enough to use similar techniques. The orange shirts thing is just a joke -- a playful dig; the idea is that if you're wearing a shirt advertising a wonder product then you really should be using same, not the product its supposed to be superseding.

RE: [RCSE] (Gay?) Caballeros, 2.4, Attention Everyone, Including Gordy and Martin Usher
Sheldon, There are many transmitters that can work on both 2.4 and 72 MHz and many can operate on 50, 40 and 35 MHz too. Most module based radio systems can be switched to alternate frequency bands. I have a Futaba 9C, originally on 72 MHz that can now operate on Spektrum 2.4 or be switched back to 72 MHz by swapping the module. This is similar to swapping 72 MHz channel modules or changing your 72 MHz system to 40 or 35 MHz so you can fly in Europe. Both Futaba and JR make module based versions of their hi-end 2.4 GHz systems that can be switched to 72 MHz, by design. So there is nothing unique about this capability in terms of Futaba or FASST systems. XPS, ASSAN and Spektrum make module versions of their 2.4 GHz transmission section that can go in other brands of transmitters.

[RCSE] WC Supras for sale (after the contest)
As most of you know, I tend to sell my toys right after a contest - the Worlds is no different. I'm taking 3 virtually pristine Supras to represent US honor in about 2 1/2 weeks. I'll be selling 2 of them either at the contest, or upon my return. This trip is getting quite expensive, and we're still about 12 grand shy of our budget goals. The pilots make up that difference. The 2 I'll be selling will be the carbon lite versions. One is 62.5 ounces, the other is 63.5 ounces. Airtronics 761's all the way around. Ailerons go all the way to the tips. Color scheme is yellow over black. I've found this color scheme to offer the best visibility at the locations I fly. (And, it's kinda cool lookin'). I've got the Supra pretty well figured out, and if the buyer is a Stylus user, I will load my set up for you on your memory card, or send you mine. Ping me offline for pics, prices and details. On another note, Vladimir sent Barry an all carbon version made specially for me - same yellow and black color scheme, my name on the flap. I had originally ordered it, but cancelled it in lieu of a lightweight f/g version. I guess Vladimir never got the memo. If I could afford it, I'd snatch it up. It's a neat model... ping Barry for details. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes I got my watch back - it actually never left. Thanks for all your support... After some Haitian research, turns out I have to cut the head off a live chicken and bathe the watch in the sweat of virgins to get the juju back -the chicken part's easy... but virgins? In Havasu? I don't know man... For further support - please go tohttp://usf3jteam.comand buy something, would ya? ;-) Thanks for the bandwidth dp Darylperkins.com LLC.1600 McCulloch Blvd. 5BLake Havasu City, AZ 86403www.darylperkins.com RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

RE: [RCSE] WC Supras for sale (after the contest)
I have just updated the budget and my current calculations are that we are about 5K short of our goal. This is a TREMENDOUS accomplishment and I continue to be impressed by the generosity of the soaring community. There has been a flurry of activity in the raffle and merchandise recently which has helped tremendously. We are now within reach of the goal and I am very confident that the next few weeks with your continuing support we will bring the team to WC fully funded. We have 13 official team members and a number of self funded supporters that are attending the WC totaling an entourage of 23 people. I am now getting the butterflys in the stomach that accompany the approach of the event. My job is not done until we arrive in Adapazzari with all our people and equipment and bring home the world championship. Thanks to all of YOU we will be well prepared. Thanks again.

I want to point out that the discussion was 2.4 and sailplanes, and I still feel IMHO that JR offers more flexibility and better RX's for our competition sailplanes and large scale models with multiple servos and high power requirements. I also don't often venture in to the large aerobatic arena so it would be unfair for me to comment on that phase of the hobby. I do know something about Helicopters, and have always found that JR has had the best flexibility and options for programming. Even with all the limitations of the 12X over the 14, that guy Quique somehow manages to get the 12X to do enough that he is not embarrassed to show up at a contest. Enough said I hope the Futaba is always good to you. Larry RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] F3X Garage Sale pt 1
Part 1: I am putting my last Europhia 2V up for sale. This model was made for me by my friend Martin Weberschock in Germany. It is an original Europhia 2V, made by the guy who designed the airplane. Wing construction is full F3B layup with carbon skins and UHM spars. Fuselage is fiberglass with kevlar and carbon reinforcement. You can run the rx antenna inside the fuse. I flew this plane in the 2006 F3B team trials to make the US team. This model met up with Dennis Phelan's model in distance and damaged the left wing panel. I replaced the panel with another and sprayed the fuselage blue. I flew my personal best of 14.51 with this model in the contest. It is in excellent shape and I am selling it because I already have my own F3B squadron in the garage. The wings are outfitted with JR DS-368's on the ailerons and DS-3421's on the flaps. The fuselage has Futaba S-9650's on the v-tails. I am also including the 5 cell battery pack, 1200 mah if I recall. Price is $1600 ready to fly. Just drop in your rx and go. I will also give the buyer my setup details. This is the fastest way to get into a competitive F3B model.

[RCSE] Re: IHLGF 2008 Pilots Roster and Frequency Assignments
On another subject: I'm in ATL right now waiting for my connecting flight to SAN. One guy from the group from Brazil, Mario de Lucca, didn't make it into the flight cause his passport has expired. Luckily it seems like he managed to get an extension and he'll be in the same flight arriving tomorrow, so: 1) feel free to make jokes about having the planes ready but forgetting to check the passport ;) 2) will somebody be driving from SAN to Poway tomorrow, friday, around noon and could give Mario a ride? He'll probably arrive on Delta flight 1041 at 12:18hs. 3) if a ride is not available does somebody know what's the best way to get from SAN to Poway (with a glider box) ? Taxi? Bus? Shuttle? Any info would be appreciated! If we have to go to the airport to get him we'd most probably loose the beginning of the WAG so it would be great if he could come some other way! Mario's cell phone: +55-11-96145476 Thanks a lot, Gustavo -- gustabmo gustabmo's Profile: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=17645 View this thread: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=873720 RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Just a thought. How about putting the F3J web site address in your messages to make it real easy for people to find it. Might help with the donations if it is easy to find the web site. www.usf3jteam.com Cheers John Moody Darwin Barrie wrote: COME ON SOARING COMMUNITY, LETS GET THIS DONE.

[RCSE] joining wing halves
My new 2 meter hollow molded wing halves are in the vacume bag. Tomorrow I'll be working on spars, and T.E. spars. This weekend I'll be joining top and bottom halves. I want to join the left and right half wing halves together into a one piece wing. A 2 m wing fits in my Honda just fine. What is the best (lightest without breaking) way of joining left and right wing halves. ??Epoxy in a joiner and fiberglass the halves together??
