Hi Bill,
There are at least 2 -
the DARTS (www.daytonsoaring.org) and
the Wingmasters (www.wingmasters.org). If you're
military or ex, you can also fly at WPAFB, but they have a pretty low
ceiling. Go figure.
The Darts field is better
for sailplanes, very wide open, no gas planes to
Actually several things have caused the lack of woody kit availability, one
of them is time spent in the internet, better known as I don't have time
to build.
The ARF thing, like most everything else in life, has it's good side and bad
sides. One of the good sides is the knowledge/talent/desire
Guys,
I put some wrinkles on my airplane wing and need to check the airfoil
before starting the sanding block work.
The airfoil is an HQ/W - 3,5/8 and the coordinates can be found here
http://www.hq-modellflug.de/koordinatenframe.htm
I want to plot the airfoil on Compufoil or TraCFoil but

Well put D.O.! I'll certainly miss getting together with you guys for
contests, but we can and still do enjoy just having fun. This portion of
the hobby, unlike pattern or free style/3D, doesn't require an opinion of
another modeler or judge. The stopwatch and where the nose of your plane

Well put, Denny.
I'm a short-timer in the club (~ 20 years) compared to founders like
Denny but have enjoyed many of the events and sessions we've had over
the years. As with all clubs, we go through high and low points. When
you look at the other commitments of the club members, it's

You will need to divide all of the numbers by 100 and arrange them from
TE (1., 0.), over the top (positive numbers) to the LE (0.,
0.), then under the bottom (negative numbers) back to the TE.
Obviously, the regional settings will be very important. The site
The coordinates appear to be in normal fashion, starting with the Trailing
edge moving toward the LE. The 'Y' values are upper and lower.
Compufoil should be able to handle it, but you might be able to put in a
file (.dat) to make it easier. The 'X' values run from 100 to 0 %, just

The Clarence Sailplane Society has evolved into the Western NY Sailplane
and Electric Flyers. Most of the club flies electric of some sort.
I am still very likely to make some remark about propellers at out club
meetings during show and tell, but if we were ( _I_ was ) to keep guys from
Reminds me of one of the clubs I fly with that opened it up to electric
flyers. Several new guys joined and most all, if not all of them had just
the little buzzy things to fly, no electric sailplanes. The overweight
short wing span arf's are flown all over the field without regard to the few
Hi all,
I got it now. Didn't know that each column on Helmut's web site was
for upper and lower surfaces.
By the way this is not the HQ 3,5/8 but the HQ/W 3,5/8. They look
similar but are not the same.
Thanks everyone.
Here are the W coordinates.

Our track record with the electric park flyers has been different. Even
with Li-po batteries, the newbies see us flying sailplanes for 30
mintutes or more and they get real interested. Many of them are now
moving toward larger, better performing e-sailplanes, and a few of us
are having a ball

Thanks TK, I was going to post along the same lines, we all seem to get
along around here.
The real serious electric geeks are out very early in the morning so they
can fly their light wind stuff. Then the Northsider crew rolls, watch
their show for awhile while we talk and setup. After we
Wow Glauco, I've plotted this foil just to take a look at it.
Gosh, it has quite a bit of camber!
Are others flying foils with this much camber?
It ought to be a floater for sure.
By the way, if you can open an AutoCAD file, I could just send you the file.

Well Bill, I don't know if I should tell what kind of floater is this
but you would be amazed that I use even more camber on thermals.
Maybe I should tell that Tom at F3X has some of these floaters and
that Rudy Siegel won Cincinnati's contest this year with one.

Where can I get a fuselage for a Bubble Dancer? I have a
tailboom and V-mount for the stab, but I would rather not
have to build the Fuselage.
