Re: [RCSE] (No subject header)
In a FLS each field coil is in series with a brush set. The power goes through the field coil and into the positive brush, through the armature and then is grounded on the negative brush which is 90 degrees to the positive brush. If you disconnect the brushes from the field coil and have a switch to reverse polarity of each brush set it will reverse the motor. It is a lot of work but it is doable. It would also require the switch to carry the full current of the motor. Maybe you could use a switch to control a DPDT relay that can handle the current it takes to run the motor.

Re: [RCSE] (No subject header)
It would look like you would need to use the switch to reverse the polarity of the brushes in the two switch positions. A little surgery will be needed but it is doable. Timing may be an issue but you should only see reduced torque in the nonstock polarity.

I want to run one forward and reverse from two pushbutton switches. 1) How do I reverse it? 2) How do I wire it so I can go forward and reverse?In case you think reversing the polarity at the battery will reverse a FLS motor, it won't. It will blow the diode in the newer type solenoid though. Done that. Thanks for any info.

Re: [RCSE] An argument for handlaunch.
Mike, The Sidewinder is close but I think $300 for the kit may still be a bit much for the young folks when you consider the all up cost will be about $425 if you build it yourself. Louisville's little Lee has progressed very nicely flying a bunch of woodies early on and getting the most out of them. If there was a similar kind of plane for handlaunch it may bring the really young crowd in earlier. I doubt Lee could have gone for a Sidewinder a year or so ago. The issue to me is that the first step in handlaunch has a tall cost of entry. My son Brendan who is 21 now bought a used XP-4 from Jeff Carr last year. It just about tapped out his life savings even though it was a fair price for a used XP-4. He had a tip strike a few months ago and delaminated the skin. It is fixable but time is short right now. The Gambler is more like what I was thinking. It has decent performance and is cheap to get flying. Now if only there were contests based on this kind of plane. Just think of the new talent it could attract and when they get to the point of going for a big bagged plane they will have all the skills they learned in the more beginner class.

From: Mark Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, July 30, 2008 11:51 am To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], TG Bean <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: soaring@airage.com I also agree with Ben in that Handlaunch is breathing new life into soaring. We have seen it here in St. Louis. While there may not be many new members produced from it yet it sure has rekindled excitement from many of the current members. I, like Chris, go back to the beginnings of HLG. I built a Sunbird when Dave's article came out and have been with it ever since. I designed some old style HLG javelin type models and loved them. I have not participated much since DLG came about mostly because I had other things I wanted to do but I'm restarting again. I like the amount you get to fly, the simplicity of it all and the contest format makes you think more than I have to in TD. "Do I launch again and risk that 2 minute flight or do I walk away and see where the chips fall?" for example. What I would like to see, and I do not know how realistic it is, would be a beginners class of handlaunch. Something where you do not need a $600 DLG machine or a $400 used beater where you spend more time chasing wing de laminations than flying. Something where you can learn flying and thermaling skills and move your way into the big leagues. I do not know if it is wood built ups on a mini high start or not. While that format is fun it is really just all up, last down over and over. Maybe a 1 meter DLG class? I'm not bright enough to figure it all out but I feel there needs to be something.

Re: [RCSE] An argument for handlaunch.
"Ben, I have never been so insulted as what you have posted here. Perhaps Jeff and Bret are just as insulted." I went to the NATS last year. Came in 33rd. in Unlimited. No one mentioned my name as attending. Should I be insulted? I'm not, as I do not need the pat on the back from my fellow man to be happy. I am plenty happy in my own mind with 33rd. Usually I am down about 100 more places. Bravo to everyone who took the time, effort and expense to attend in the German F3K event. Mark RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Phil, The Astro Jeff was sold to Jim Ealy who is working on getting the kit out the door. The Grand Esprit and Sagitta XL were sold to Aerosphere as were all of the Airtronics wood kits except gt the Oly II. They have not released these kits yet. Keep and eye out here, RCGroups and eBay.

[RCSE] Re: line tension governor
I'd like to wait and see what the real fall out is going to be. So far what I see is a lot of folks discussing doomsday without any real proof. It makes no sense to me to change all of the launch systems we have in the USA when none of these big planes (Icon 2, DP's new TD) are in existence yet. I can see being prepared and all but this is a major undertaking. Plus why invest in these fixes before any of these Uber planes are in existence to use as examples or proof of concept? So far we have a few proposed solutions looking for a problem. What's the deal? 2 American designed Uber planes are on the horizon and folks are all quaking in their boots. Will the extra pull of these planes on the winch when added to the pull of gravity of the moon cause sea levels to rise and all of our ocean front homes will fall into the sea? It seems folks do not want to invest in winch technology to launch these Uber planes to their potential for fear they will put the dinky planes they already have at a disadvantage. They will rather invest in limiting the winches so that the big planes will not get the advantage on launch and folks can keep flying the dinky planes they have. That is until they see the efficiencies in flight of the big planes then everyone will join the bandwagon. Then they will all complain about weak winches. Round and round it goes. In the end no matter which way you go the good fliers will make it work. In 30 years one of us will be in the same discussion and we will be able to keep Chuck's memory alive by saying "I did that 30 years ago and it didn't work".

Re: [RCSE] Benchmark models
I paid $150.00 for my first Hobie back in 1980. I thought I was crazy seeing that kits were under $50.00 at the most. Looking back it was the best $150.00 I ever spent in this hobby. I still have it. It taught me a lot and was so easily repairable that I could be back in the air quickly. I caught my first thermal with it. It has it's faults but I see it as a personality. Kind of like that girl you didn't really want to being home to mom but did anyway. Just like with that girl, life has moved on but you still think about her. 50% of the thoughts are how lucky you are that you never got entangled. The other 50% wants to see her again. I guess it is good that I have my 5 Hobies stashed away in the basement in their foam boxes and bring them out every so often to lust after.

Re: [RCSE] Re: Supra or Onyx JW, these are "Me-Too Designs"
History states that Mark Drela built a Mirage a few years back and liked it so much that he decided to build a modern version. Thus was born the Bubble Dancer. Of course you would fly a Bubble Dancer against a Mirage and feel confident you would win. It has 30 years head start in technology advancement. I would say both were benchmarks and they are both related. They both took the status quo and changed it to status not so quo.

While I'll grant that the Mirage may have been a benchmark, I'd be willing to fly a good Bubble Dancer vs. you with a Mirage any day. (Not that I'd necessarily win, we all know it's the pilot, and I don't know you so you may fly a lot better than I do.) If it was a bit breezy and we had the same airframe weight I'd even spot you a few points. Actually, I think the Allegro Lite did some of it first, but the Bubble Dancer is a combination of full pedal strength with very light weight, balsa construction, low moment of inertia, and refined aerodynamics. I don't recall seeing that before the Allegro Lite. The Bubble Dancer turns very quickly for a 3 meter. My impression was that it did this quicker than the aileron jobs. I hadn't seen anything quite like it before. Certainly not a 3 meter that you could full pedal launch and also be comfortable doing a couple of circles from a hand launch. Watching Mark launch the Allegro Lite was surreal. Like playing a 33 at 45, or even 78, for those of you who remember vinyl. I don't know what the imitations fly like yet, though I hope to soon.

In my opinion, Benchmark planes, means some plane to which other planes are compared to so that a noticeable advancement in performance, building, transport, and flying can be measured. They should be unique and contribute unique characteristics. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] BAD VENDOR REPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't confirm it here Todd. I have gotten most of my batteries from them. They are about 2 miles from my house so I stop by. Always pleasant and friendly and go out of their way to help. I had a bad cell in a Hobby store pack in my Evolution XL the day before I left for the NATS. I called about 5 minutes before they closed and they stayed and built 2 packs for me. They both charged over the rating. Every battery I have gotten from them charged to their rating or over. I have used them for my camera, cell phone and iPod batteries too. Their old shop burned down about a year and a half ago now and it is good to see them still around. BTW..They don't know me or Isthmus Models from Adam. I buy retail from them because I like them.

Past experiences were nominal like "wrong items shipped" only to have me ship back to wait and wait to finally get what I originally ordered.dealing with RUDE people on their phone..receiving a couple RX packs that didn't even SNIFF the capacity level AFTER a 24 hour charge with my Sirius Pack former..get the runaround over the phone about NOT PROPERLY CHARGING, etc. Like a Dumb-dumb I keep loyal and try to give them the benefit of the doubt. Recently (the past 2 and 1/2 years) I have had THREE painful surgeries on my FEET that has hampered me to do much flying...or anything at all at that. Prior to my second operation I purchased servo's and batteries for upcoming projects once I am back on my feet. Well a THIRD operation was necessary, unfortunately.and am now getting projects completed. I cycled a 2100 mah pack , recently, which I purchased roughly a year ago and have not touched IT or the other products like Volz servo's and another RX pack from a local hobby store, and it cranked out a wopping 510mah after a 24 hour trickle charge. I then re-cycled it for another 24 hours and it really jumped BIG TIME to 710mah!!! Its a 2100 mah pack The other pack I purchased from a hobby store cycled up "close" to where it should be and has been working quite well. I asked a friend regarding this matter and He felt one of the cells went bad. I phoned BATTERIES AMERICA to have someone tell me "I am a big boy and I NEED to accept "REALITY", in that, its been over a year and thats that." I told them I understand , BUT, the pack has NEVER EVER been cycled...EVER. They claimed that I am not being realistic, as I agreed it has been a year BUT I am honest and have NEVER touched the battery or cycled it EVER. I re-coiled and stated back at them "then your telling me that NONE of your packs haven't sat on the shelves for a year...TWO...or more?? How am I to know they didn't ship me a 2100 mah RX pack that hasn't been collecting dust on their shelves for a year or two or three He said "THAT is immaterial"...I asked how? I asked can you tell me right now that ALL your packs are LESS than a year old and all cells used to put the packs together? He bobbled about only to say how its NOT THE SAME POINT , its immaterial to my point and matter and He can't state they ONLY have batteries put together in less than 12 months. What a joke of a company...I have had other problemss and have read some of your guys' NIGHTMARE dealings with these people. I am the one to blame as i should not have done any business with these people after the humiliating conversations and lack of prodcing a product accurate with its description and expected performance. For a measely 20-30 bux they lost a LOYAL and HONEST customer. BTW...the VOLZ servos and the DS368's from Johnny Berlin fired up GREAT and the other battery I purchased that sat around until I recovered from my painful nightmare cycled up and is working very well. I just don't get it. How petty are these people and what TERRIBLE business practices they have. I recently sent in a $30+ servo I bought from JR that stripped out and they replaced it with a NEW ONE...no questions asked. How can a 2100 mah battery that was NEVER cycled by the buyer be so bad after sitting in my drawer awaiting my recovery?

[RCSE] Thinking of 2 Meters
Just a general question that has nothing to do with 2 meter planes but sailplanes in general. I had a first flight of a sailplane awhile back. I did the dive test and flew inverted. Felt nose heavy. Took out lead. Did it again...took out lead...did it a few more times. All the while putting in down trim to keep it flying level. I get to the point where I notice that the decilage (sp) is massively wrong. LOTS of down stab to keep the plane flying level. Like 1/4" from zero. Take note that in a dive test it is still pulling up to much. So, the question is should I keep moving the CG back and keep making the decilage further off or do I put the CG so that I have zero or very little decilage angle. BTW...It has a full flying stab. I would think having so much decilage would cause a lot of dragOpinions? Mark Miller RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Maybe we can have NOS on alternate years to replace XC and scale? Although I'd love to see XC every year too.

I stayed and flew a day of electric soaring just to be proved horsepower is everything in their world, even in "stock events", but still tried anyway. It has gotten very hot here since yesterday and that with the fact that the Soaring Nats is done, means this will be a slow Sunday. There was good and bad at the Nats for me, the Level V finish was obviously the high point, and is a high point for my entire soaring life. But from the context of being the Event Director, these points stand out; The Good: The greatest volunteers in the world, many will bring specific names, but just as Jim noted, these are folks that come in many cases selflessly and just help, do not fly, and make the event work. I worry that there are not enough of these folks out there in our future though. I had a note from a gentleman that really is not a hard core contest guy, but comes down for a day or two evey year, and had not ever been to the TD part, and was amazed at how smooth the contest runs. Great contestants! Gordy, well...;') The smooth flow of the contest, which I attribute primarily to Marna Jefferies. Marna has the impound down to an art and I cannot imagine that anywhere there is a better system than what she has developed for the Nats. Marna and Larry will be helping at the Masters, which is great. Scoring was rock solid, Robin Meeks and Barb Stieflel made that fly and I know that Robin is helping at the Master's as well and F3B trials. Having a reliable scorer and system is absolute in MOM. Flight line and landing zones, Larry, Jim and Marti, your guys were on the ball and that was a non worry in my mind. It looks simple, but the knowledge that these men have is through the roof, and it takes it. Sarah, handled the trolls and retrieval, no fuss no muss. Another worry off my table. The fact that the two possible cases that serious personnal injury could have occurred, no one was. One gentlemen was scared to death though and luckily only scathed, anyone that would have faced what he did would have been. One note, when it is windy at any contest, let someone throw for you when you are not confident in the situation, period. AMA's support of our event was stellar, Ron Morgan and Al Williamson, and the AMA Maintenence crews were their usual tremendous support of LSF. Also Dave Brown, he is who greased the AMA's part of the winch deal personnally and there was no hesitation on his part, if we had it figured out, he would support it on his end no questios asked. I have many feelings, some good and bad about Mr. Brown, but he came through for the LSF here big. Finally, our new friend Amy who works for AMA, she was a great help. Everyone should thank Tom Kallevang for all the work he has done, is doing, and will do for LSF. He busts his arse for the organization as no one I have ever seen. We are lucky we have him. Again, the volunteers! Fliers coming to the flight line prepared, from what I saw, folks did a good job here Minimum of line breaks in some very heavy winds, 15-20 mph, which can be done pretty easily today. Thanks go to the fliers. I did not hear a single gripe about Nostalgia not being flown. Having the wind stay southwest for five straight days (which almost never happens), made our life much simpler. The weather as a whole allowed almost non stop flying, and that is always a plus. Now, that is not to say it did not make it tough. Did I mention the volunteers? Ah, yes I did! The Bad: The AC power that we have grown to rely on for our flight line charger system power was lost for the week. And really for no reason other than someone did not check it in a timely fashion prior to the contest from AMA. We did have power for our scoring trailer and sound systems as usual, but we had to use a generator on the flight line(which did the job and was a very quiet unit). In many ways, it might actually be the better way to go, more analysis later. Small flight groups. There were times that we had flight groups of 4 or 5, and that is way too small. This all eminates from how many we allow on frequencies per event and the fact that up through the

Re: [RCSE] loaded question...2M
Douglas, I bought the CARA kitting from Ed Whyte and am working on putting the first few kits together. I think it is an excellent design that can launch hard but is RES for simpler set-up and control. I can let you know when I have it available. I am also working on bringing back Ed's RESolution back in built-up wing form.

Re: [RCSE] "Wait and Wail, one of those really great deals contest pilots!"
Guys, You can find current information on the Evolution and the new Evolution XL at www.isthmusmodels.com. I am now the exclusive distributor of Paul Schneider Modelbau in the USA. The XL had it's first contest outing in Germany a few weeks ago and got 2nd thru 5th. Designed by Marc Schneider with help of Philip Kolb the XL is an update to the Evolution with more span, different planform using a blend of MH-32 and PK321–325 airfoils by Mr. Kolb. I just got in a shipment of Evo XL's last week and they are all spoken for including two for Edwin and two for Rich Burnoski. I will be making another order soon so if you want a regular Evolution or the new XL you best get on the list now. Custom color designs are available if you order before I place my order. They are available in GFK, Carbon D-Box and full Carbon versions. The D-Box is 65 to 66 oz dry with Tow Hook, carbon pushrods installed, ballast tube and joiners.

[RCSE] Out of the Shop
My wife and I have left the shop for our trip to Florida to adopt our daughter. Feel free to place any orders but be aware we will probably not be able to ship until our return. My son is home and can ship some of the easier things. We are in Bradenton/Sarasota so if there are any soaring folks near by who want to fly I brought a Soprano and a little Zephyr II HLG to play with while we are waiting for things to develop. I have a sinking feeling I left a stab wire at home. I need to go check my bag. Cheers, Mark Miller Isthmus Models __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] Re-covering an Organic
I have tried different extra adhesives when recovering
the sailplanes I sell of this construction type. I
have found that that adding extra adhesive to not
really be worth the effort. The only place I may use
it is on the carbon of the end ribs. The covering gets
pulled when untaping the tip panels. A layer of clear
tape as a barrier will lessen the amount of pulling on
the covering.
The Polycover which is basically Oracover lite under a
different name to have plenty of sticking power alone.
The adhesive sticks very well to the carbon and
carbon/Kevlar hybrid cloth D-Tube. Use any of these
suggestions if you like but it is not necessary.

When you hear about the numbers of sailplane kits sold back in the days gone by you wonder what happened. The business was a big deal back then. Now it is all a cottage industry. And no the number of ARF's both cheap and expensive does not make up the difference in numbers. I wish I could sell 1/4 of the numbers of kits that were sold back in the 70's and 80's.

Re: Re: [RCSE] Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
Phil, If keeping a few grams out from around the servo holes improves yaw inertia by 5% then how can loading your tube spar with ounces ballast be a real benefit? Wouldn't it turn a good performing sailplane into a slug int he turns? Wouldn't you want it in the fuselage around the CG? We are talking grams here and when was the last time you saw a servo mounted at the tip? I can appreciate what Mark D. is saying but .....

Folks, I wanted to give you all an update on our adoption. We were supposed to leave today but were called on Friday and told to postpone until more news arrived today. After talking to our agency they said that our appointment for this Thursday has been changed to March due to rescheduling at the National Adoption Center in Ukraine. Because of the birth of our domestic adoption child in early April the March date will not work for us. The earliest we can possibly travel is November if at all. As you can imagine this is devastating news for my wife and me. We will continue to look forward to the birth of our daughter in Florida. So...Isthmus Models is back open.

Re: [RCSE] An analogy (regarding Model Aviation magazine)
Jim, I think you are right on here. Another analogy would be how many of us drive cars but do not take part in competition? But many many people want to know what has happened in competitions around the world be it F1, Indy, LeMans, NASCAR etc. I will go back to my previous post and say that the competition we are referring to is not just a competition. It is our National Championships. In my mind what the AMA has done is to dimish the importance of their own members who strive to become the National Champion of their respective form of the hobby. Maybe our new Champion is the fellow who wins Top Gun in the AMA's mind. Maybe Top GUn is commercially more viable but that shows that the AMA is not capable of promoting our NATS properly. It should be promoted and refered to as an important part of our hobby. Mark Miller __ Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] Nats Issue and AMA ED
It would seem to me that if they can give many pages to large contests like Top Gun or Joe Nall or the other big commercial meets that they can give coverage for our National Champoinships. After all it is the AMA that is putting it on and they have a duty to it's members to report on the chamopins of all forms of our hobby. Not everyone has a computer to get the daily NATS news and so in my opinion it should be in one special edition of Model Aviation. How else are they going to let the members know? I just cannot see how members would not want to know who their National champs are but would rather know who won Top Gun. Mark Miller __ Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] Lamenting the lack of available sailplane builder's kits
Just so you all know, I just bought the CARA and Resolution designs from Ed Whyte. The CARA is a composite fuselage with built up wing. MH32 airfoil and carbon tube spar. The RESolution has been redesigned from it's original foam core wing to a composite fuselage with built up wing and again, carbon tube spar. I am further changing it to have a MH 32 airfoil like the CARA. I also currently have the Mirage short kit, soon to be a full kit, the original Mark's Models Mini Bird of Time 2 meter and the 1.5 meter Zephyr II old school HLG. I also have many other kit designs in the wings as time permits. I will say though that there is only a small demand for kits these days. I can keep doing it because I do not rely on them solely to keep the business afloat or to pay to develop new kits. At heart I'm a wood kit guy and I will keep what I can alive and available.

Re: [RCSE] RES not for the "elite"
I agree that RES is currently not in the same league as unlimited as far as prestige goes. I still maintain that it is solely because it is treated that way by contest organizers and possibly by some of the pilots them selves. Treat it like it was a National class event and it will be. Treat it like a fun fly and it will be. The class won't change the perception. Only the participants and organizers can do that. Mark Miller __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] One full day of RES
I'm all for a full day of RES. The way it was explained to me regarding the reason for keeping 2 days of 2 meter was that it was a "premier" event like Unlimited and RES was not. I would say that over the past 4 or 5 years RES had advanced and grown in popularity around the country. The technology has advanced to the point where RES designs are winning unlimited contests these days. 2 meter is declining around the country and technology and market share is stagnant or declining. The number of people flying RES at the NATS is not what it could be because, in my opinion it is essentially a half day of flying for a full price entry. It is also placed badly where folks are trying to get home after a long week of flying. I feel it is the class that has actually been growing over the years nation wide. The way it can become a "premier" event is by treating it that way. I would not mind even seeing the Dan Pruss award be based on the point total for 2 meter, Unlimited and RES. It is 3 different ways of flying and would reward the versitility of the team. This will, in my mind, be as the award was intended which was based on 3 classes, 2 meter, standard and unlimited. Seeing a full day for DLG with 20 entries is kind of weird. Also, who would like to see a Hobie Hawk sub class in Nostalgia? I would love to see a bunch of Hobies mixing it up. The Isthmus Models Hobie Hawk Challenge. I'll provide a trophy.

Re: [RCSE] FVK Graphite or something similar....
I have Trio's in stock and 4 more just got out of Customs and are on their way to me. Bob Johnson has his flying and likes it a lot. I'll let him comment if he sees this. I should have mine flying this weekend so I'll be down in Chicago soon to give you a test ride Jim. http://www.isthmusmodels.com/pages/trio.html Also, just out of Customs are 2 Pipers which is a full house Soprano. I have not had one long enough to build and fly it but I did build one for Larry Fogel at Torrey pines and he loves it. Mike McGowan has one also. Part of the fun of the model business is that customers come first and you end up selling things and you don't have any to fly. I will also be receiving 4 Fireblade 2 DLG sailplanes. This is a redesigned version of the Fireblade/Hyper that has been sold out of Europe for awhile. I had them add more dihedral and went to a full flying stab with other weight saving and detail changes. http://www.isthmusmodels.com/pages/fireblade.html More Sopranos should be here around the end of May or early June along with a test shot of the Duet. This is a 2 meter RES in the Ukranian build style with Pod and boom similar to the Trio. It will be available in both sailplane and electric versions. I think this is going to be one nice model.

With the V70 R you can do both with a flick of a switch. ItÂ’s all possible thanks to a semi-active chassis with Four-C technology. The Volvo V70 R provides plenty of room for your sailplanes too.

[RCSE] New Kit
After a long time in hibernation Isthmus Models is proud to bring the Mini Bird of Time back to the hobby market. This design was designed by Mark Smith to compliment the Dave Thornburg Bird of Time but in a smaller 2 meter size. Isthmus Models made a few updates changing to laser cut parts for easy assembly. We have retained the very unique ribs where you can build ie either with 10% or 8% thickness. It can be built with either a one or two piece of wing. $105.98 plus shipping. Available Now! I will have it on my web page in a day or so. Mark Miller Isthmus Models www.isthmusmodels.com __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] Laser cut kit / Drela plans
Douglas, The ribs were intentionally made long so feel free to cut them off. This goes for the Bubble Dancer parts also.

[RCSE] Sopranos Come and Gone
Hi All, I got a shipment of Sopranos in on Friday and they are all spoken for. I have another order due to be shipped early May. If you want to get on the wait list let me know preferably at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have Trios in stock as well as a few electric front fuselages for the Soprano. Due in with the Sopranos in May is a prototype RES 2 meter called Duet. I am having one sent to test and see if there are needed changes. It will be pod and boom with the typical Ukranian built up wing and tail. Shoud be a cute little bugger. It will also be available in electric version. Also note that "by May" means it will be shipped to me in May. Last time it took almost two weeks for Customs processing and then the shipping label fell off and it was at my local DHL depot for almost a week until we found it. Sometimes it can take two weeks to get here, sometimes not. Cheers, Mark Miller Isthmus Models __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
