A friend of mine worked for a company that returned Illegals to
various countries. He flew into this airport everyday for over a
month. He was able to ride in the jump seat a few times. And, although

Gordy must have gone to a different Toledo show than I did. I always go at
the opening on Friday. Last year attendance was down but this year it was
much worse than last year. Several years ago I could not get thru the
walkways for the crowd and it would take all day to see the whole show
floor.
I know we don't get a lot of handlaunch chatter here on the RCSE, but I
know deep in your heart of hearts you really want to fly DLG :)
Currently, the Polecat Challenge (June 14-16, 2008) has 73 registered,

That is correct. The tips are set at speed when aligned with the wing tip so
normal cruise is slightly below that (1-2 degrees).

Just talked to Barry and Ed, both on their way home, loved the show,
really filled up, lots of amazing planes on display, Barry said that he's
going to have a double booth because he often had a few layers of customers out

Everyone is tired but happy having been there.
To piggy back on this, I have a photon DLG that's for sale. Details here:

Anyone using the new sanyo eneloop batteries?
The sanyo site says they have reduced internal resistence, but they
don't give numbers.
Just sales info.

I have been extensively testing these batteries for over 6 months. They are
installed in my TX and RX on my primary and secondary Pike Perfects.
The reduced self discharge rate is totally true. My RX packs held 5.75 v for
6 months which is what they were 10 mins afetr the charge was complete.

Hi Jeff and All,
I have three 4-cell Eneloop AA size receiver packs in service in F3B/F3J

I have no information on their internal resistance but they live up to all
their manufacturer's performance claims.

Yes. The claims about the self discharge rate being extremely slow
are completely true. It's extremely nice -- you charge them up, and
