Re: [RCSE] Radio Shack 1000mah NiCads
Also, another question about these batteries.I have them in a square Radio Shack batt holder, the one with the spring connections, and with a clip on 9v wire out. Is there any reason why this arrangement, with tape would be no good for our uses? Kind of neat to use off the shelf stuff like this at about $12 / 1000mah pack if it is possible.

[RCSE] Fwd: [RCSE]Radio Shack 1000mah NiCads
I just got some 1000 mah NiCads from Radio Shack, and started charging at home using my 110D, at 1A. noticed that by about 270mah, they were getting warm and the voltage was up to about 7.3v. So now I'm charging at .2A. Wondering is there something about these that makes it imperative that you slow charge them? Rodger

Re: [RCSE] feather receiver in zagi question?
Why worry about range with the Feather? Seems everybody agrees that the range is sort of 500-700 ft. I have an FMA Fortress micro FM, 8 channels, mine is on ch45. Weighs only 0.6 oz ( so maybe 9 gm more than the feather...will that matter in practical terms?), and has been glitch and worry free for me so far (knock on Obechi!) Cost is nice too, about $59-$69, can't remember which. Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [RCSE] Feather vs. 555
I have an FMA Fortress 8ch FM, so far I love it, weighs only 0.6 oz, and don't believe it has any range problems. Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [RCSE] Condor
Does anybody have pictures of their Sleger's Condor that they can email me and tips on building?

Re: [RCSE] Aileron/Rudder mixing
When using A/R mixing, can you still use rudder independently? also I have a futaba 6 xa, not with specific sailplane programsbut programmable...for example if I wanted "Crow" for landing, would it still be possible? during crow, how are ailerons functioning? Are they full up and flaps full down, and are you controlling yaw and roll with rudder alone? Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] FCC and Changing Crystals
Can anybody tell me a practical reason that it is not legal to change crystals? I can't think of one. And while you're at it can anybody tell me what it is like to be gruntled? And while you're at it, can anybody tell me, if I want to go up in size from an HLG to a larger one, should I work my way up in size or just go whole hog and go standard or larger?

Re: [RCSE] Re: Next Soaring project
I'm thinking about my next plane, have an HLG, and considering larger. Chumming for suggestions. Two meter or larger? Pay the price for composite, or built up (can't say that's my favorite activity, or that I have tons of time.) Can I have general and specific suggestions?

[RCSE] NiCad Battery Problem
Can someone give me a quick answer? It's a warm day and I want to fly, not crash! For some reason after leaving my 225 mah battery in my fiberglass fuse, disconnected from rx and servos, this am it was totally discharged after being charged last night. Can't imagine how this happened...does fiberglass conduct? I had lead weights in the nose, but they were not touching as far as I can tell. The problem is, it doesn't seem to charge on my Astro 110D, and keeps false peaking after 10 or 15 mah. Seems to charge better at .2mah than .4 ie false peaks faster on .4, where before 0.4 used to do fine. What happened? Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Cutting Dihedrals
I am a newbie, never worked with composite wings, and have to cut, sand and join panels for the Corn Dogger. right now staring, but not doing, don't want to screw them up. This may sound stupid, but what tool do I use? Can I use a #11 blade? Razor saw? Well placed Karate chop? Will regular 5 min epoxy be ok for gluing? Will I need micro spheres on hand? The wing is so thin (7.4%), will it be strong enough? Can it take a hi start without folding? ( I know...its an HLG). Thanks, Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
