Re: [RCSE] Looking for an Airtronics 94401 Servo

Does anyone out there have a 401 that they would part with? It does not have to have good gears (used to be the weak link) as long as it runs. Larrys

Re: [RCSE] stuck on mandrel
I use 1 layer of waxed paper followed by 1 layer of Glad Wrap (or equivalent both out of the kitchen cupboard), wrapped around a piece the o.d. of the ballast but longer, then roll the wetted fiberglass on. The waxed paper will not stick to the mandrel and the Glad Wrap will not stick to the epoxy and will pull out easily.

You should be able to pull out the mandrel then pull out the release film. You can use steel rods if you want something more consistent than a dowel. Jimmy Prouty wrote: Hi Tony, Did you spiral wrap the mylar over the mandrel? I've found that I can grab the mylar with a pair of duck bill pliers and gently wrap the mylar around them to pull it out of the tube. It sticks once in a while but I can usually reach in and pull the stuck piece out with hemostats. Happy flying, Jimmy www.jtmodels.com RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] What if LSF had been born on the East coast..
Then why the H*ll does it seem that Ohio Valley think its their play thing. Larrys - Original Message - From: "Chuck Anderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 1:04 AM Subject: [RCSE] What if LSF had been born on the East coast.. What would the tasks have been if LSF had been born on the East Coast? LSF was formed as a local California group to promote sailplane flying back in 1969 and the achievement tasks were developed to suit local conditions that allowed long thermal flights, long slope flights, and lots of wide open spaces for cross country. At that time, the other major group promoting soaring was the East Coast Soaring Society. Imagine what tasks ECSS would have developed for the weak lift, wooded hills and tree lined roads of Pennsylvania, New York, and New England.

Re: [RCSE] Congrats to Johnny Berlin's Level V Goal and Return today

[RCSE] Congrats to Johnny Berlin's Level V Goal and Return today
Congrats to Johnny for completing his LSF Level V Goal and return Today Johnny was up to the Traverse City LIFT Field this weekend and attempted the Level V Goal and Return Sat, Sun, and was successful today. It's a tuff course up here but can be done when things work right and he got out on course today about the only time the air on the whole course was working and he flew it expertly. The condition changed just as finished and no other attempt could be made by the other level 4's. Crew included Harry DeBoer, Larry Jefferys, Butch's spirit, and myself, and Peter Baumeler & LeeAnn support at the field and Joe Riley a (new soaring) pilot riding shotgun for the experience. I'll leave the flight details to Johnny. Larrys
Re: [RCSE] RIP Butch
I too will miss Butch, however there was one day, for a while, about 10+ years ago he almost didn't make it another day, when he lifted his leg on my obechie (white) painted wing. That plane had its badge of Butch to its death. Butch I / we will miss you.
