2001-06-13 Thread Klint Holland

Fellow soarers...

I'm new to the list and fairly new to soaring.  I've been flying now for
about six months and am already thinking about investing in another thermal
chaser.  My first investment, and probably not my wisest, was in the Great
Planes Spirit 2-Meter.  It's not been a bad learning plane overall and I've
had the opportunity to speck it a couple of times... but here's the delema.
We usually get together and fly at a nearby farm (about 20 minutes away)
when my local soaring club goes out.  But, what about all the times that I
want to go flying and don't want to travel to the farm?

Well, my fiance and I are getting ready to move into a new apartment that
has a SMALL field behind it (more like a large grassy knoll - me being the
second gunman smile) and I'm thinking that I could probably put a
sailplane down in this area.  It's getting it up that will be the challenge.
So, I've been looking around at some electric powered thermal chasers and a
friend of mine through our club, Jack Gross, recommended that I ask the
opinion of this list before making my purchase.  ANY advice would be greatly
appreciated!!  Here's a couple that I've found that fit my taste:

   and
http://www.amd.org.hk/cata/scorpio.htm

Anyone with any advice on these aircraft, or with opinions on some that are
better --- please respond... Thanks in advance!!!

Klint,
Hand launch!  L little zip start (or a DLG).  That is the way to go.
You will learn more from a hand launch than any other type of thermalling.
Yes, it requires some work, but with DLG, it is really not that bad.  Plus
you can always us a small zip start.

The other good things.  HLGs won't cause property damage unless you go
really ballistic with it!  It has NO noise.  It requires a lot less
investment in most cases.  And they are cool :)

Mario,

Really nice web site and the slope site (DOLOMITI MOUNTAINS
- ITALY) is no small deal either.  Sure beats the central
Texas hill country.

I can't believe that a cell phone would have an effect on a
decent RC receiver.  The frequency (both analog and digital)
is Very far removed from the RC band and the output
power is not so much as to swamp anything that is more than
a few inches away.

Chuck (I'll settle for a Zagi just to get up in those
mountains) Sparks

 I am a new italian member of Your list ( sorry for mistakes ). My interest
 is slope aerobatic
 soaring.
 If You want to see some beautiful saring photo: big gliders and the
 fantastic  Dolomiti
 mountains, take a look at my web site and let
 me know what you think about it.
 
 Vision problem.
 I have carried my cell phone for moore than one year and  I never had
 problem with it. On saturday I was  flying near Florence  with my
 3.5 m Fox  while  a friend of mine called me to ask  about the way to the
 slope. I spoke to him about 3 minutes without any problem.
 I heard about
 some problems with cell phone. It looks like that sometimes cell phones
 change the
  transmitter settings, may be  this happens  rarely.
