Re: [RCSE] Davenport ISR 2002
Well now let me see. The Socal Paddler Bingham wants to get his paddle back on May 5 so he can spank the NorCal boys 2 weeks earlier. Bragging that u can fly so fast as to go back 2 weeks in time is quite a claim, not atypical from that neck of the woods (pun intended). - Original Message - From: Robert Bingham [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Craig Toutolmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Cliff Lindgren [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 10:02 AM Subject: RE: [RCSE] Davenport ISR 2002 Don't listen to 'em Daryl, they are just jealous northerners who worship antiquated 70's slopers and skateboard style half pipe maneuvers.

We have done zero slope racing as well, MoM or otherwise... Whip me, beat me, make me write bad cheques...it's still the truth. However...we are master beer assimilaters (somehow that sounds bad), and sorta(?) familiar with tokes, (not toques - wore these over my brainpan on the ski slopes when they were in vogue, sirca the 70's), and we do know how to go very fast.

[RCSE] Ellipse 2V and Ellipse 2ET for sale
This is a must have for pilots who love to fly all day, no matter the conditions. Perfect F3F racer or all around sloper. I am selling this with an additional Ellipse 2ET, the electric fuse. The electric fuse is a T-Tail, very few of these were made. The 2V is a yellow fuse, wing is yellow top/ purple bottom and it has Ellipse 2 on the upper wing. It has hitec 85 MG's throughout. Slimline Rx and 5 cell 1100mah pack. It has the usual minor scratches under the wing. Nose cone has scratches from landings. Otherwise in perfect shape. Also included is an electric fuse for those days when the gliders are grounded. This Ellipse 2ET, T-tail fuse, brushless Kontronic motor, speed controller, Rx and Rx battery are all included. 2 specially made 12cell Nicad zapped 2400mah packs included. Fuse has damage from some crashes, all solidly repaired. This plane goes up like a rocket and the pack gives u at least 3 climb outs to speck height! The wing from the glider is simply transferred to the electric or vice versa. It is very easy to access the battery and motor as the e-cone slips out of the e-fuse with a unique clip in bolt. This is a must have for the sloper who hates being grounded in no wind conditions. As new the whole package would cost over $3000. Asking $1500 or best offer for whole package.

RE: [RCSE] REALLY STRONG wing joiners
Once my Mega-Millenium started to reach speeds in the 130mph range, the specailly built double carbon joiners started to bend significantly. I needed to find a solution and thankfully Doug's chromoly joiners are bomber. As u saw from my report on the DS speed record, the wings were hardly flexing at 176mph, and there were times it was going faster just that the radar could not read at that angle. I have now ordered joiners from Doug for my other DS toys as I know that area of concern will no longer be such a high concern. -Original Message- From: Winchdoc [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2001 6:30 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] REALLY STRONG wing joiners This message is intended ONLY for those poor souls that are hopelessly addicted to that evil back side sort of flying known as DS I have built a limited number of CNC precision machined tool steel wing joiners that have been hardened to 50-52 Rc. The CF joiners for these sailplanes are pretty strong, plenty strong for most average flying conditions. They will also break in a really hard landing to save other parts of the sailplane. When CF fails, it breaks all the way with little perceived warning. You DS junkies know what I mean. Daryl Perkins and Barry Baskin have custom joiners in some of their planes. Ask them if these are any good. These steel joiners also add the extra mass you might want when DS'ing in extreme conditions. I guarantee that something else will break before these joiners fail. You may blow a spar, a stab, or whatever, and you'll pull the intact joiner from a smoking crater on the backside of Parker Mountain, but you won't break this joiner.

RE: [RCSE] Re: Opinions (response to last weeks post)
As a newcomer to this sport (15 months) it is with dismay that I noticed the posts of Larry Jolly, aired by his choice in a public forum. I understand that he is a very talented pilot. Our sport has many talented pilots like most sports have their athletes. What we need from my little observation are more quiet ambassadors for our sport, people who give time, energy and instruction back into the sport while also representing our country in a way that will make all of us proud. From this distance Joe appears to be all that and so much more. In fairness to Larry, whom I have never met, I don't know much except the postings speak volumes. I will keep an open mind tho and hope this venting of some grudge clears the air. Now why don't u both agree to settle the issue of competition and beating each other on the undisputed king of difficult and ability testing courses? A man on man DS race at Parker, 5 rounds, no throwouts? Loser eats true crow? Spectator fees to watch this matchup will be donated to agreed on team causes. Further words on the exchange are hardly the way to go.

My opinions are my own. For your information what started that post was Sal's maligning the Europeans. The fact of the matter is that he stated that you now had the ultimate F3J Toy, and Daryl had the ultimate TD Toy and also the next F3B winner. Just for the record you must know about that post from Sal after all you found mine. But with out that reference you can stick to attacking me ,right.So Joe how can Sal make those statements, they are not fact. Your model has never been in an F3J meet, and Daryl's Super Fletcher hasn't even got the molds polished out yet. That was blatant self promotion for SAl and his boys and is not factual. Don't you ever get self righteous and condemn me for being part of the old F3B wars. It was your club not mine that started the barrage of Techno advantage wars in that game. As far as a friendlier group involved now, is that what you call that little bit of Rules twisting you, and your Win at any costs team mates pulled at the last team trials. You guys cheated and your little philosophical comment about fighting it out in the air made me laugh out loud. Your buddy Daryl even got so blatant as to say that if Randy had been the CD he wouldn't have got away with it. Got away with what? I thought what you guys did was legal, right. No, Joe, it is you with the problem not me. The fact is that you and Daryl treat people poorly, it is true that Daryl is far more of a user than you are. I know that I am on your list and that when the chips go don't fall in my favor that you will secretly chuckle at my score. The simple fact is that after years of experience with you and Daryl I prefer not to be a friend. Personally I find you people contrary to the way I want, to live my life. I wish you the best, but do not support you in any of your endeavors. If there is a competition that I can use my limited abilities to compete against you, I will. Since all you live for is the challenge of the hunt it means so much more when I read Jolly in front of Wurts. I am not taking any abuse from you, if you want to go public, bring it on.

RE: [RCSE] Service in the Soaring World....NSP
Let me say that the service I get from Sal has always been good. When I was a beginner he helped me choose correctly and when he is busy he always suggests a call back, when I do get his attention. The are only a handful of people out there who are qualified to give the kind of advice Sal can and does give, when he is not pressured. If your ego needs strokes above the facts, perhaps his talents are wasted on u. At the height of his season, I once wanted a HLG shipped that day by overnight fedex (this was at 4pm his time), he made the effort, got the package off that day, and I got it the next day, so was able to take my HLG on vacation. Would anyone else out there do that for meI doubt it. Whatever one's preferences are, knowledgeable, qualified people in our sport are in short supply, I for one don't want Sal (or any of the other experts) to close their doors. It would be a loss for us all, even if u don't choose to deal with a particular supplier. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 12, 2000 9:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] Service in the Soaring World With all the bashing of Sal I had to step in. And no not to defend him :). I think sometimes we in soaring forget what great service we do get from some of the companies we deal with. I think Sal gives service that is "average" or slightly below for the (radio control) industry at large. I think that most of the time in soaring we get much better service than anyone in the other disciplines would expect. This is probably partially due to the small size of the soaring world, partially due to the great people this sport attracts. Try calling Tower Hobbies and asking a question. More often than not they cannot even begin to answer the question. I have received exceptionally great service from Karlton at multiplex and Darwin at Garrison Aerodrome. I would happily go back to them in a heart beat. Bob Dodgson would answer questions (many dumb no doubt) endlessly without even a whimper. I have ordered things from Sal; wasn't impressed with the service, and appalled by the packaging of my airplane. As a result I probably won't order from him again. However, I also know that Sal does have many airplanes others do not. He also supports the sport in many ways. If his service and personality bothers one that much don't order from him. Eventually if enough people decide to not order from him the business will close. Hopefully by the same token businesses like Multiplex and Garrison Aerodrome will prosper. No one need get all bent out of shape on the list. After all its a hobby, possibly a sport; if its stressful its pointless. mi dos pesos- Kristopher Harig ~ look I even signed my name!
