[RCSE] Passing
It is sad to tell everyone that Bob Harman has passed on today. For those who remember Bob he was the one who came up with the BAT winch and other various items for R/C soaring, Bob Harman was one of the founders of the event that we all now know as Soar Utah, it was his dream to bring everyone to the slopes here in Utah and share some of the best inland slope soaring to be found. I know I will miss Bob for he was a great friend and mentor to Me and others, Bob taught me how to fly and build and most of all how to put all the sticks back together again so I could fly another day. Thanks for the time all I just felt some of you would want to know. Clarence Ashcraft Sandy, Utah RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

We have pilots from all over the US as well as Canada.We hope you can make it. Day 1, September 1, 2006 (Friday) Butterfield Canyon is situated on the mountain peak above the Kennecott Copper mine which provides an outstanding panoramic view of the mine as well as views of the surrounding countryside. This is a 360-degree flying site for both slope and thermal flying. The terraced pit is a half-mile deep, about two and one-half miles wide, and the working area covers 1,900 acres; the mine's open pit is one of only a few man-made objects that can be seen from space and the second largest man-made excavation in the world! Elevation of the peak is approx. 8,900 feet. NEW THIS YEAR: Aero Tow option. For anyone who may be interested in watching or participating in an aero tow event, we'll have a couple of tugs ready to haul up even the biggest models. With our tugs we can tow anything from a hand-launch to 1/3 scale. (maps will be provided to all registered pilots) Day 2 3, September 2 3, 2006 (Saturday Sunday) Point of the Mountain is where hang gliders as well as R/C pilots come from around the world to experience the smooth air, predictable weather, and consistent ridge soaring conditions. The morning wind normally blows from the South, so most of the contest activities will be on the South side. In the afternoon, the winds normally switch and blow from the North, and we fly on the North launch. Both sites offer drive up convenience (no hiking the hill for each flight). Day 4, September 4, 2006 (Monday) Fancis Peak is located directly East of the Kaysville I-15 exit and is a popular flying destination for every Soar Utah. The rewards are not only the birds-eye panoramic view of the Great Salt Lake and Morgan County but with an elevation of 9,600 feet it allows for many types of flying RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: Re: [RCSE] Re: Rudder Stalls and turns.
The thing I found using one stick is that you can feed in an input that would cut your performance, like a touch of down when you are wanting to give it rudder. The big thing you need to do is find out if two or one stick is better for you for control, I ended up going to two sticks and found that with practice I could fly smoother when the conditions are light. But I also fly with a Stylus and most computer radios will let you have it linked up on the Rud/Ale mix so if I hand the radio to some one I can make it a single stick for them and still keep my method of madness Clarence Jay Hunter wrote: Chris, That is VERY enlightening. I had just discovered I needed my elevator in my turns once I have the ship banked. I think I am going to return my rudder to my right stick. It will make flying it easier. And when I fly the aileron ships I will move it to the left side. Thanks again.. jay On 7/31/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]* [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Jay, I have been flying my Photon 1 in the IHLGF for 4 years. I have a Watson tailgroup on it (Spyderfoam/FG) which is close to the type the Photon II has. I use alot of rudder throw and use the rudder for tight thermals, as well as using it for drag breaking and stalling. You have to use the rudder in many ways, in order to get down fast, especially close to the ground. Rudders may not stall themselves but they DO STALL THE PLANE. You can go to the Drela sites and read about how tail surfaces stall. Here are my observation and use. 1) I use ALOT of rudder throw. My desire is to up end the wing ASAP if I want to core a tight thermal. 2) I use Exponential on my Rudder, mainly to create the ability to put in minor changes when first moving the stick, and major throws on the extremes. 3) If I need to use it, especially at high altitudes, I have my dual rates set up to be 40-50% fo my normal throws. I use this when I need to fly smoothly high, as well as letting some others fly the plane. 4) Rudders do stall. However, if you are experincing Rudder stalls from level flight, then your CG is back to far. Basically, you need to increase your glide speed slightly, as you are right at the point where any drag slows the entire wing down and it stalls. Be aware, that your slowest glidespeed may not be your best L/D speed. Often you need to add down elevator to speed the plane up then initiate the turn. 5) When flying rudder/Elevator, you do need to add up elevator in your turns. You will find that once you initiate a bank, only the elevator is required. The rudder is then only used to keep the plane in the bank when required, and level when it attempts to tuck in tighter in the turn. 6) I use rudder as a Spoiler/Brake all the time. There are 2 methods. 7) Method 1: If you oscillate your rudder fast, the plane does not respond, BUT the rudder acts as drag and brakes the airplane. It is like a swing/pendulum/harmonic thing. Try it when you are close to the ground apparoaching for a catch. Basically a rudder drag brake. 8) Method 2: If you move the rudders slowly, you can get a wings oscillation set up. Big Throws make is so you can respond to making the plane turn back fast. Doing this, you can essentially induced a s-turn and after 3 turns, like right, left, right, the wing tips will stall and you can getthe plane to drop 10 feet or so. 9) There are methods to do elevator stalls coming in. You pull upp elevator up to a stall, let the nose drop, then pull up for a stall, but just as it peaks give down to level the plane then pull full up, which essentially mushes the wing in a flying level stall and the plane drops vertically while still flying. All these methods do require practice. Bill Watson often said that for R/E ships 1 ft = 1 sec of flight time, so you can basically gauge how high you need to be to make a time. 10) While most now do not do it, I like to fly a gyro on a poly ship. I tune down the gyro so that the rudder does ge affected when thermaling. Try to tune it down as low as possible as required for the throw, but so it does not affect thermal turns. 11) My Rudders are fairly thick, and the LEs blunted. the Drella sites will talk about airfoil deadband, as well as stalling. 12) As for the Rudder stick, are you right handed or left handed. As a right handed person I have flown with R/E on the right stick. This is like most. I have been flying R/E HLGs for a very long time and basically those who fly aileron ships never realize the handicaps R/E ships have. Sometimes I ask a aileron flyer to try a R/E ship because it does require a blend of R/E that shows a aileron pilot

Re: [RCSE] trouble with balsa dust
I use a Rainbow vacuum in my shop. the advantage of the rainbow is all the air and dust must go through a water bath for filtration before the air comes back out for you to breath. A regular shop vac and house vac uses a paper filter or baggless system for filtration so it lets allot of dust back out for you to breath. If you would like me to tell you more contact me offline and I will tell you more about how it works...it works because wet dust can't fly Clarence Ashcraft ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) President of IMSF - 2005 InterMountain Silent Flyers Home of Soar Utah If you would like to learn to fly R/C gliders and electrics, contact our club at: http://www.silentflyer.org - Original Message - From: Ed Berris [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: soaring@airage.com Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2005 4:24 PM Subject: [RCSE] trouble with balsa dust I realize this is not a medical forum, however, I suspect that others of you have had some experience with reactions to balsa dust. I seem to have developed quite a sensitivity to balsa dust. With just a small exposure it triggers asthma like symptoms including a nagging cough, wheezing, a tightness in my chest and sometime dizziness or severe cold like symptoms. I wonder if others have had a similar experience and what they are doing so that they can continue working with balsa without becoming ill. I know that a good quality dust mask will be a must. I have seldom worn on in the past but I can see that I will need to now. Miserable in Minnesota, Ed RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Contests 2 M class
As I read the various post's about contests and two meter class. I sit and scratch My head and wonder why did some of you get into this hobby. With all the bitching being done here about two meter class it would make someone feel that you only care about what you fly. And You wonder why it is hard to bring new people into a hobby that We all love to be in. what We as a group need to be doing is look for ways to improve this hobby so all can feel welcome as they start there journey towards gettingmore skills and a better plane. Most people getting into this hobby have limited fundsand that means that the new people fly what they have. I have taught a few people to fly and I try to keep that person from focusing on the high dollar ships at first in hopes that they will get enough good flights in to get them through the bad times of repairs etc. I personally don't care what you fly andyes I have a Hera but I have a bunch of other ships that I love to fly, For me it's about the time I get to fly. As for two meter yes it has a performance difference but don't count it out of a contest or event because of it's size. A good example of this is My scratch built mini bird of time during Soar Utah 2004, Mark Howard got his eight hour LSF and I got My 4 hour LSF slope with my 2 meter bird of time. Yes it was hard at times for me to keep My eye on a small bird for four hours but I did it. Well that's enough typing on the computer for me I just hope some of you will think back to the time when a 2 meter bird was all you had and how much fun it was...Clarence CLARENCE ASHCRAFTPRESIDENT OFIMSF 2005[EMAIL PROTECTED] HOME OF INTERMOUNTAINSILENT FLYERS ANDSOAR UTAHWOULD YOU LIKE TO LEARN TO FLY R/C CONTACTTHE CLUB AThttp://www.silentflyer.org/
Re: [RCSE] Lawyers? Kits? Soaring?
Just got done with a Bubble Dancer and flew it at the Southwest Classic...I love to build and building from mostly scratch is the way that I like to build. and the best part is that I see something that I like I research it and duplicate it the best that I can. Yes I hate to see a kit supplier be forced out by the money grubbers. but I can feel confident that so far that the lawyers have not found a way to remove my building knowledge. So if a Lawyer can stop me from building a design of vintage,etc I would like to see it.

Initially the wings were set up with the tip aileron servos, but after some experimenting, all my Escapes have the outer aileron fixed. There was just no perceivable difference in performance. I firmly believe that competition thermal models must be simple, easy to maintain and robust. The last problem you need is a unserviceable model in a competition when there are plenty of other issues to concern ones self with. 2 extra servos (especially small servos with fragile gears) are just not worth the hassle. The best way to become better in competition is to become comfortable with the flying qualities of your chosen model and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. Chasing the ultimate model will only give small gains. Most of the current breed of competition models may have a performance difference of, lets say, 3% between the worst and best. This difference can easily be narrowed with one or two stalls during a flight.

Then to make things more interesting we have 15,000 police officers from all over the US. and the latest addition will be another 5,000 officers because George Bush wants to come to opening ceremonies. so if any one would like to come and fly in this airspace you are welcome to come. in fact I will loan you a high-start to get your plane in the air. then i can sit and watch your plane hit the ground as you are busy dropping your transmitter because they wont let you bring your plane in for a soft landing.

Hi All some of you might think the ban is on just R/C well it's not. it also includes all hang gliders and para gliders. it is not something that we like to obey but it is a small price to pay by staying grounded when asked to. if we refuse to do this our goverment could be a real pain by making new regulations that could take away our r/c enjoyment. we don't want that.our club flying field is behind the speed skating oval and our club has been allowed by salt lake county to use this facilty at no cost to our club. so the ban on flying might be hard to take right now. but to get another field with mowed grass for free is hard to find. sometimes you have to give and it's one of those times.

Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2002 16:43:58 -0500 The original statement about the ban was regarding Park flyers and people who may be flying them. Many of which may not be informed about AMA. Are they in the know about a 52 mile ban on R/C flying? Does anyone think that there will not be an R/C aircraft flying within that 52 mile radius during the games? - Original Message - From: "Bob Johnson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2002 11:07 AM Subject: Re: [RCSE] R/C Flying around Salt Lake For more information on the flying ban, go to the AMA site, http://www.modelaircraft.org . Read what it says about the ban of radio controlled models and rockets and then decide for yourself whether or not it is prudent to fly. Being a responsible American and respectful of others, I wouldn't even consider flying in or near the no-fly zone.
