First off, everyone add all the soaring sites (slope and TD) that they
know of on the Extreme-Products.com International Soaring Site
Directory.
Secondly, everyone check out the cool new "Mach Dart", a fully molded
60" slope racer. It's in the "60" Slope Planes Section"
Both of these things can

Last year at Visalia on Sat evening Joe Wurts, Tim Cone, and myself all were
"playing" with throwing and trying to out float each other until well past
sunset. While I was definately lower almost every throw (Tim and Joe were
tied about 5-10 ft higher than my tosses), we were all getting times in
The Three R's tape arrived in central Florida today.
Man, I wish I had a tape like this years ago when I was
first learning to thermal!
Great Job!

Yep. Don't think the still and the movie is
from the same event! The still seems to be taken at
some altitude in rather clear weather, while the
F-14 is flying in less spectacular weather close to
the surface!
I had that F-14 mpeg before (with particulars about
when it was taken), but I had hope

John,
Are you sure of these times?
Was your timing device calibrated?
Perhaps you had the flights timed by someone else to guarantee
accuracy and impartiality?
I'll bet you were standing on a backstop or even a roof to get times
like those, huh, really?
Thank you for the information on hand lau
John,
Don't let the nay sayers get to you, it is obvious that if they have time to
do all these mathmatical calculations to contradict your actual tested data
that they do not take much time to fly. I my self believe the Laser and now
know I have a long ways to go on working on my launch tech
Flat is lighter than glossy. Flat also seems to cover better. On a solid
wing (i.e. no ribs and open bays) take your pick of the colors you mention.
At a distance all will turn "black". gv

I recently purchased a used slope plane that was equipped with Hitec HS-81
mg servos. One of the aileron servos would not center, it was off by 1/16
of an inch. I replaced the servo with a hs-81mg that I had in my spare
parts box. I sent off the servo to be repaired, a few days latter a note

Nice photo, but they are definitely overstating the odds in getting a shot of that.
I've seen quite a few photos like this, and
even got one myself of the black Playboy Bunny F-4 Phantom doing it (admitedly not
nearly as nice a picture as this one).If you

First off, Thanks to all those who responded about
the Carbon D-Lite.
I found another plane that interests me. It is called
the Colibri 1M Glider.
