Hi Guys,
I have about 1,000 flights on my first Pike so I have a pretty good idea
about well everything about it. One thing that has been frustrating are
the flapswell not the flaps themselves, they are great!
But the top mount linkage system. Its geometry doesn't keep them
really
Gordy,
Did you not notice that My Sharon has botom actuated
flaps? You saw how good they worked at Visalia :-)

That model is a small pusher prop version of SS1 built by Dan Kreigh, of
UFO/IFO fame.
It's made from carbon fiber rods and lightweight nylon ripstop cloth. It
flies pretty well as long as it's not too windy; the feather even works.

The contest season was fickle, and fun.
All the OVSS Contests were LSF Level V Contests, ( part of the reason for
the program).

Whether top or bottom actuated, the 40 year old horn/clevis/pushrod
technology being used to move flaps and ailerons with stuff hanging out,
needs to go the way of the dinosaur.
The RDS technology, if generally used, would render it all obsolete except
for entry level airframes. Moldies and

A great free Flighter, Martyn Cowley, convinced me to do something with
the Photon II that has turned out pretty well. First, he convinced me to
offer an unflapped version of the P II specifically for the FF community
and for those of you who simply want to enjoy a great DLG without

conversion.
There are sources for the couplers that work well and adapt to most common
servos. The locking screw should be sufficient but to

I installed an RDS system on the ailerons of my Icon. They are rock
solid and smooth. I used Walt Dimmick's (sp?) parts that are machined
to high tolerance and give a slop free fit.
It's a bit scary carving a space for the RDS pocket in that expensive
aileron, but not too hard once you've

I used the typical euro, top actuated, bottom hinged system for the
flaps. It kept everything inside and a smooth wing bottom, but Gordy's
right it is a bit squishy as a system. I tried to stiffen it up with
4-40 threaded rod, soldered to heavy links. It's the nature of the
geometry I guess.
