[RCSE] WTB ARF OPEN TD Ship (For my Nephew)

2005-08-27 Thread John Fruge
As some of you may know my nephew Perry Fruge Age 11 Did a really good job on 
the West Cost TD circuit this year. He has been flying a Soprano RES. Next year 
he would like to fly in Open Class as that is what his friend AJ McGowan is 
flying.
That being said we are now in the market for a used open class TD ship. Please 
le me know what you have that your not using. Of corse were looking fot the 
best value but are also willing to pay the price for something nice if the deal 
is good. My first thoughts are along the lines of a good bagged Psyko or 
something in that leage / class. (He did manage to keep his Soprano in almost 
new shape needing no repair all year. That being said we would also look at a 
good value Molded ship. My hope is to find one with servos install and that we 
can just add RX program our radio and fly.

Also were in no real hurry so if your willing to give a great deal on something 
say after Visalia we would be willing to make a deal now and wait to recieve 
the bird until then.

Please let us know what you have.

Thanks,

John Fruge

 The Fresno Soaring Society lost it's web site.  I changed ISP and MSN was 
 short sighted and took the web page away and I haven't been able to set up a 
 new one.  I've made a few tries to send them over RCSE and they are either 
 bounced as exceeding the size limit or, as the last 2 attempts, scrambled 
 up.

Re: [RCSE] Thanks CASL!

2005-02-07 Thread John Fruge
I wanted to also thank CASL for a great event! This was my nephew Perry (age 
11) and my first TD contest. (Other than our small local MRCC monthly 
contests.)  It was a rollercoaster event for me. It started off bad when eating 
on the way out of town on Thursday I got food poisoning. (10 hours later about 
an hour out of Phoenix. )  I found myself stopped on the side of the 10 freeway 
lying on the rocks wanting to throw up and crap my pants at the same time. 
Lucky for me it was 11pm and the cool air did me some good and 10 minutes later 
we trekked on to the hotel. I want to thank my girlfriend Jennifer for driving 
the last 8 hours of the trip in. The high light of the event for me was after a 
great first day I was 2nd place on the score sheet. Knowing it would not last I 
did not loose much sleep over it. 
I did not make any good landings the 2nd day and missed my time on the last 
round by 4 minutes and ended up in 61st place.
Perry did quite well. My choice of plane for him was not the best and he did 
great with what he had. 
On the way back up on this rollercoaster weekend we ended up doing great on the 
raffle.

I just want to say thanks again for a great event. Everyone we talked with was 
very helpful and nice. We hope to be back next year.

 I too would like to express my gratitude to the CASL club for hosting 
 another fine event.
 
 I had a great time, and am looking forward to next year's contest.
 
 By the way, the new retrievers seemed to work very well.  Nice work guys.
 
 It was very nice to see some of the midwest glider guiders come out of the 
 cold to have some fun.  Steve Siebenauler (sp?), Mark Gellart, and ah rats 
 I can't remember his name, flying the pretty manits...  :)  Just a few of 
 the guys that I met at last year's Nats.  There were others too, but 
 unfortunately, my memory is full of too much non-essential info to recall 
 their names.
 
 See you all soon I hope.
 
 Mike

 The air was challenging at times, making for a
 slightly thermal oriented event. Many of the top ten
 fell out in the last 8 minute round, shaking the
 scores up a bit. I think Edgar had me prior to the
 last round.
 
 Don't ask me who finished where I have no idea. I
 flew pretty well though. ;-)
 
 I flew an Insanity 3.7. 2nd place Mike Smith flew a
 Sharon 3.7. Hm... starting to see a theme here...
 ;-)
 
 Thanks to all the hard workers at CASL. I had a great
 time. And it was great to see so many old friends.
 They make me remember what this soaring thing is
 really all about.

[RCSE] Glider Bag choices?

2004-12-16 Thread John Fruge
I just picked up a new sailplane (3 piece wing) and wanted to know what venders 
are still selling bags these days. The Bag Lady link I have is not working and 
I got a message back from Jim bags saying he has sold the business.

If you know if any links for bag venders please let me know.

Thanks,

[RCSE] Looking for 2 RES planes

2004-12-04 Thread John Fruge
I plan on flying 2 classes Open class (Zenith / Sapphire) some RES TD contests 
in 2005 with my local club. I also think it is time to upgrade my 10 year old 
nephew to something better than his spirit ARF that he flys quite well. Another 
club member (MRCC) Modesto RC Club is planning on getting an ArtHobby HIGH 
ASPECT-RES 3.1m After checking the website it looks like it might be a good way 
to go. I dont want to spend too much cash and it looks like I can get 2 of them 
for the price of one ava.

I guess what I am looking for is some feedback on the Arthobby High Aspect-RES 
if anyone has seen or owned one.

So far the only feedback I have is that I need to add a  layer of carbon top 
and bottom in the center section of the wing to handle the winch better. 

I plan on ordering them next friday. Please help me change my mind if needed :)

Thanks,

John Fruge
