Re: [RCSE] Braided nylon VS mono filament
Gordon. we only use mono, 'down under.' It is lighter for the model to lift, on launch, and also stretches a little to allow a 'ping' at the end. I also find that if the high start line falls into scrub, it is less likely to tangle, with the mono. We also use mono, pretty well exclusively, on our winches. No retrievers here, except for the two legged variety. Winches only wind in line on launch, as they are fitted with one way sprag bearings or free wheeling bicycle hubbs, which are locked, on launch. Go with the mono, in my opinion. Klaus K Weiss Sydney, Australia http://www.h.s.l.rcclubs.com RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Fw: [RCSE] Manners for newbies
Hey Randy. I believe you!!! I have read lots of 'knowlegable' replies from list members and on further questioning, find that they themselves are 'newbies' and in some instances have not even flown sailplanes. they get their answers from improvising on others replies. Klaus K Weiss Sydney, Australia http://www.h.s.l.rcclubs.com - Original Message - From: Randy Bullard [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes and he should only believe about 50% of what he gets as an answer. There are some members that will answer the question no matter if they know the correct answer or not. Of course anything I say is the complete truth. ;-) RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send subscribe and unsubscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It has the help of a pilot to achieve that status. Clean, efficient, purpose designed models sure go a long way to help in this regard. Lots of guys post contest winning models for sale on this forum. That contest winning status evaporates when they are flown by the average pilot. Klaus Weiss.

RE: [RCSE] More on throwing up
I remember back in my youth, getting drunk. It was the first and last time for me. I woke up in the yard, and I had thrown up as well. Don't remember if it went 100ft, but it must have been close. I think it was also in dead air - or at least it smelled that way. Klaus Weiss Australia RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Vaccum Systems
When I paid a visit to Calif. earlier this year, Del Brengman went out of his way to help me with the purchase of a vac pump and associated equipment. He took me to an 'Alladins Cave' of engineering equipment, where they sold quality, used Gast pumps, amongst a multitude of other gear. Del, has of course, designed an excellent hot wire cutting system and vac bag system, of which the details are available on a number of web pages, including the highly informative Charles River RC web page. Del will also sell (or used to) refurbished pumps. In any case, he can be contacted through rcse, for any interested persons. Klaus Weiss Australia (Chris wrote) Hi Gang, Several people have been asking me where they can get cheap VAC pumps as well as parts for the pressure switch and all the other stuff.
