[RCSE] Skip miLLer Models
Byron Blakeslee(2005 F3J team selections CD) and I just got back from visiting Skip Millers shop today. We were very impressed with this guy's inventory! Here is whatwe saw: Victors (Lubos Pazderka models/designer of the Extreme and Fazer. The Victor is his latest design), Fazers, German Eagle, large selection of Starlight 3000's including two piece V-tail and X-tail, Carbon 68 Pike Superiors, Topaz and Topaz L, Sharon 3.7, Space Pro. A large Mueller orderconsisting of Espada R's is being built as this is being written. Check out Skip's web site at www.skipmillermodels.com. Tom Gressman I do not receive any favors from Skip for posting this.
Re: [RCSE] Supras done
I am still 20/15 but the reflexes are starting to go at 59. I have owned and flown most of the F3J birds and just when I think they couldn't get any better the Supra emerges. In the hands of a world class flyer it should do very well at the 2006 Worlds! Tom
Re: [RCSE] Supras done
Agreed. I have about 4 hours on mine. One of the best launching models I have ever owned. Jim Monaco estimates that my launch is 80-90 degrees. On one ride I took it out from less than 50 ft( 5 degree joiners)to cloud base at 1+mi. out. With a 7-10 mile breeze I easily cruised back in the same air(2 degrees reflex)that a Tsunami had difficulty punching through. Build quality is high. On a lab analytical scale the outer panels with joiners were within 0.1 gm of each other! Larry, am I over psyched about this model or is it one of the best we have ever seen? By the way it lands in a linear manner with no negative traits and the effective rudder gives me excellent directional control on final. Tom Gressman

Incredibly poor luck Gordy. I want to go on record to say that you are a true sportsman and competitor. Gordy took time out during the carnage to assist me in getting my Artemis KC back in action. I use Volz servos in this 7 year old model and to date have never stripped a gear or had a Volz servo failure.

Re: [RCSE] The NOS dead horse beating.......again
Ray, Your comments were logical and to the point. I hope to compete in NOS at the Nats in 2005 or 2006. Btw the Challenger was test flown last weekend and it is simply awesome! If I had had one in the 70's and 80's I could been very competitive. Thanks again for kitting this excellent model! Tom Gressman

[RCSE] 9303 camber program question
My soaring buddy and I have had difficulty in setting up camber using the left side lever. In order to get the ailerons and flaps to move in unison we find that 150% of down aileron is required. We then use flap rate and flaperon mix. Are we missing a key step here that would simplify without having to establish this large aileron down travel?

Re: [RCSE] 9303 camber program question
The 150% down required is in travel adjust. The proper amount of up and down is then done with differential. I keep thinking there is an easier way on the 9303, therefore the question posted on the exchange. Tom
Re: [RCSE] 9303 camber program question
Thanks Mike for the response. We get the travel by going to 150% down on the travel adjust with the ailerons and then using differential to get the proper up and down. We just thought that theremay bean easier way with the 9303. Are you using the left slider to get camber? If so exactly what is your program? We use the above and then go to flap rate followed by flaperon mix. Tom
