I'll second that. One should run about 15 to 16 dollars (with connector
and shipping) via mail order. Make sure you get JR connector (or plug
compatible - Futaba is not 'plug' compatible) whether you buy from local
Hobby shop or mail order.Regis

I asked Paul about this once and he said it was too expensive. Maybe VCD? I
would be much cheaper to produce (maybe even than VHS) with nearly as good
quality and CD quality sound.

Hi there I will be going to Maui on Nov29 to Dec 9th for some surf and
soaring and was wondering if there is some cool spots to Fly. This is a
leisure trip so i intend to bring a few models and spent some time if
possible in the wind :) Two questions for the Resident experts from Maui 1.
A comment on DS. It seems to me that years and years ago I found a
discussion of dynamic soaring in one of Reichmann's writings. Only in this
case the discussion was about full scale soaring pilots who had used a wind
gradient at altitude to fly for prolonged periods of time. What is needed
is a
HI All,
We do offer the Stomp Launcher as a built and ready to use product also.
(Haven't updated the site with it yet though (DOH!)
Happy flying,

The plane you remember is the legendary Kestrel by Tom Feldvebel. He moved
to New Mexico, not AZ.
It's all composite, and very fast. Largely made from a rare composite
material known as obtainamite, it is even more elusive than unobtainium,
in that you just _might_ be able to obtain one.
I have
Your mention of the machined aluminum mechanism reminded me of a plane
called the Ultra, or Ultra GP by George's Models. When I saw it at the IMS
show a long time ago, it had these really cool machined control arms, along
with a somewhat odd, squarish shaped molded glass fuselage with lots of
The phenomenon has been known about for a quite a while. I think people
first speculated that albatross did it (later confirmed), as far back as
the early 1900's or late 1800's.

Last I heard there still was speculation whether the albatross used wind
speed gradient or lift from the slope lift provided by the waves or
perhaps
they are sneaky and use both. Has anyone asked an albatross lately?

Yep, SE Modeler plan #137 and a adjustable PVC one was
depicted and explained in the Sept 2001 SE.

Greetings to the group. I was tuning up a Supreme RX on 53.4 Mhz and
discovered a problem that may effect receivers on the 72/75 Mhz bands as
well.
While tuning the antenna coil the Heathkit vacuum tube voltmeter (it's a
long story) needle started jumping around. If I picked up the receiver
and
As I like to minimize the equipment weight I have to lug to the field, I
would like to hear from those pilots who have directly compared the LBW
to typical winch systems we all use. Specifically, I am interested in
the grunt characteristics, performance degradation under continuous use,
and
By the wording of the blurb at NSP, it looks like these ailerons are NOT
full span. Flaperons might be a bad idea, as they would act like washin
if they are not full span. Pretty high wing loading for it's size on
this thing.

I think my original response got lost.
Light weight and expendability are good features, particularly if you
launch on wet grass without golf shoes. Easy one hand grip is good so
you don't drop it. Expo is nice on the elevator if you have a lot of
throw for tight turns. Basically, the Hi Tec 2
Aloha!
I live on Maui, and would be happy to hook up with you and show you where to
fly.
There has been little or no wind in the last 10 days, hopefully that will
end before you get here!! There is good lift here probably 300 days out of a
year.
I live in the Lahaina area, and there are a few
