Heck, the Nat's wasn't "official" until Butchie had lifted his leg and "christened" one of the main tent poles to declare that the Nats were now ready for serious competition, good friends, and good times...   I think it was 2004, when we dressed Butch in a volunteer's t-shirt and lettered i

Well, since my post from 2 years ago popped up, I might as well chime in. We as pilots can't thank the support crew enough. Without the dedicated folks who trek to Muncie, we wouldn't have an event. Without their effort, it just doesn't happen. If you have ever had the slightest inclination to see

As I fly this Wednesday morning I'll be thinking of the times Butch laid down beside me after I messed up on a flight at the NATS.  Perhaps I blew an easy landing.  Butch didn't care how badly I flew.  He was always there just being nice.  Johnny, I'll see you next summer in Muncie

2006-08-22 Thread Daryl Perkins
I learned a long time ago that by coupling flaps to ailerons the model would track better. (And yes, every model) My first experience with this was with a slope racer (Swift 800) with a short tail moment, and undersized V-tail. I had trouble getting it to track properly at different ballasted weigh

2006-08-22 Thread Jeff Reid
My understanding is that drag is reduced a bit if some flaps are coupled to ailerons, since it reduces the amount of aileron throw, a bit, and reduces vortexes at the inner edge of the ailerons. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and "unsubscribe" requests
