Re: [RCSE] Foam Cutting Bow

Hello Joe I think that the bow that you found is fine. It seams to have a metal bar on top that could be a problem with insulation of the cutting wire but it looks fine. I will state this as simple as possible. Why I do not like Feather cut! A few years ago there was a seminar on

If you are REALLY CHEAP, see if you can find the RCM book called Building Foam Wings (?). It is slightly thicker than a magazine and bright orange on white. I built the bow they describe for less than $5 in parts. It consists of a 43x1x3 piece of wood, 3/16 music wire, a household

Roy, I was told once that Hawks will not loop. A few years ago I had one following my Spirit while slope soaring. It was great fun to fly the Spirit just a few feet past my head with the Hawk in tow. Some great (up close) views of the Hawk. At one point, with the Hawk directly behind the
