Re: [RCSE] switch failure
I just do the KISS(Keep It Simple, S7up1d) thing, wiggle the sticks( and see the response) before you go!! Haven't failed yet. I did have battery failure, but not the switch. I did forget to turn them off, is that count? Brian How about a bright LED or strobe light inline with the switch.

Re: [RCSE] Bright color welded ring
errr...what's wrong with putting a name on the parachute or launch harness? You can get some chain links and power paint them. Brian Does anyone know of a source of 1 inch welded steel rings which have been anodized in some bright eye catching color? The guys are always picking up the wrong ring or end of the launch harness and standing there confused. It would be really convenient to say "the red one is the right one!"

There are a lot of reasons to chose something other than the ships that are most proven and popluar, cost being one but in fact the cost is a few lawn mowings or driveway shovelings extra cash away from each other. The number one reason to get something other than the 'bench mark' ship? Because you want to try something else...it makes the hobby that much more fun for you. Second best reason...because IF you enter a contest flying the same ship as the majorityyou are left with one less excuse for not having done as well as they all did. Flying the same design as the group can make Man On Man more about the pilot. Maybe takes a little more guts :-) Third Reason...because you still believe that a certain model's foil or weight or span offers some advantage that will tip the time or landing points your way over the other poor saps stuck with that that 'bench mark' sailplane.

But just like PCM, even if it holds the last frame of good signal, you need to be sure plane is straight and level.

I'm probably missing some obvious work-around, but on first glance it doesn't look as if they gave the sailplane boys much of a thought when they designed the programming. It is only a lowly 7 ch tx, it would not do a whole heck of a lot over the DX-6. I like my DX-6 for the park flyers and aerial photographing. I can fly (safer) in any location, without worry getting hit. I was surprised to see they come out with only 7 channels. A beginner would buy one but any hard core modeler will think that is a waste of money to get only 7 ch. I would buy it if it has 9 or 10 ch. I am running out of channels even with the Fut 9C. Anyway, if 50 % of the people jump on that, the 72MHz will be much more open, thus less interferences.

[RCSE] need futaba 9Z 4 servo wing programming help
I'm hoping someone might be able to send me their program setup for a four servo wing sailplane using the 9Z. My radio is the older, pre-WC version, and the plane I'm trying to set up is an Opus. I'm pretty close but I have a couple of problems that are stumping me. Aileron differential (ADF) only affects the ailerons and not the flaps that work along with the ailerons. If I use ATV (adjustable travel volume) to limit the range of the flap motion, I end up with limited down flap available in butterfly mode. I need full 140% down flap range with crow (butterfly) deployed for maximum down flap on landing approach. However I don't need anywhere near 140% down flap travel when the flaps are working as ailerons. Unfortunately, limiting the flap range outside of crow programming seems to have the effect of reducing the available flap range within crow.

RE: [RCSE] How to mount a v tail
Try making a block that will sit on top of the v-tail at the root. (Angle the bottom of the block to match the v-tail angle.) Now you can set a small bubble level on the block to measure the v-tail incidence. Raise the tail until the bubble is perfectly centered, and then use a meter to set the wing incidence. I’ve never flown a Snipe, but I doubt you’ll need that much positive incidence. I’d start around 1 degree I think. (Enough to be sure it isn’t negative.)

RE: [RCSE] Death to RCR
Thirty two years ago, when I was twelve, my older brother brought an issue of RCM into my parent's home. I have no idea who gave it to him or why he brought it home, because he never even read it. I, however, read and re-read that issue until I wore it out. It was another six years before I could afford to get started in R/C, but in the meantime, I haunted the newsstands every month, eagerly waiting for the next issue of RCM to arrive. After all these years, model airplanes are still the joy of my life. These days, I get most of my model airplane related news and information from the internet, and I only buy model aviation magazines on occasion. Still, for me, it is a sad thing to realize that RCM will be no more. My RCM magazines were the treasures of my youth, and the source of many of my hopes and dreams. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

I’ve noticed quite a few organized competitions, meets, and fun flys over the past several months posted here on RCSE. I’ve “never been” to the mainland but if I did go, I would want to setup my itinerary to include one of these R/C competitions, meets, or fun flys. From people’s experience and unbiased opinions☺, what would be the best organized competitions, meets, or fun flys have they encountered? I’m also concerned about local accommodations (hotels, camping sites if I decide to camp out, etc.). I would like to hang out with the local flyers and see their flying sites also before and after the organized meet if possible. I would rather go to something that is soaring related, but I would consider other R/C meets like TOC and R/C shows and exhibitions just as long it is worthwhile to check out.

[RCSE] The Gordy rule
Gordy's post about a model hydoplane meets the Gordy rule, which is the only allowable exception to the "all posts must be soaring related" rule. According to the Gordy rule, if a post interests Gordy, it should interest everyone else too, and therefore does not need to be soaring related. Conversely, if a post does not interest Gordy, the post is spam and should never have been posted. This part of the Gordy rule may be freely applied to posts that are indeed soaring related. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

[RCSE] "2 meter r hurts.Dayton!" - The winners?
So. Who was 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, and of course, What models were they flying? You Know Gordy. The regular questions that inquiring minds want to ask/know. (smile) Brian Smith Subject: [RCSE] "2 meter r hurts...at least in Dayton!" Had my trusty (more like rusty since it never gets out to fly) Organic charged and ready for some ass kickin today in Dayton. Woke up at the local Holiday Inn to sun and calm winds. Got to the field to find sun and wind building. All the big dogs showed up to put the hurtin on me, Don Harris, Paul the Siegel, Marc Gellart, Jerry SuperV Shape, and a cast of other rough looking types who were obviously ringers brought in to insure that I wouldn't be hauling any more Dayton wood away. I tried my own intimidation by showing up pulling a trailer (you know to carry all the wood), but in the end it didn't work. It was sooo obvious what was afootFirst they rig the winches to lull me into complacency by making sure that I out launced everyone in my rounds. That part worked, I zoomed well beyond all, and headed out distracted, so never noticed that I flew through hundreds of thermals. After 6 rounds of 10minutes each, I had amassed a total time of about 6 minutes (the total air time out of all 6 rounds) while everyone else seemed to get their times. First round they had rigged a tree line to extend upward so that I would get stuck behind, off field in some beans! These guys are devious. That put a bunch of poke holes in my Organic's Ultracoat and put a wrinkle in the new fuse's tailboom. Then they had trimmed bushes up wind so that I had tremendous turbulence in the landing zone, which caused a flip over landing. All in all a pretty fun day, and seriously one of the most challenging flying sites I have ever flown and easily some of the best thumb wiggling soaring I have been privileged to witness. Wish you all could have been hosed like me :-) GordyColumbus, Cincinatti, Louisville, Harrisburg, Rochester, Jamestown NDthen Muncie!
