[RCSE] Digital Scale Accuracy

Builders, I'm looking into getting a digital scale and I've noticed that the price varies by accuracy (in general). What kind of accuracy is needed for hand-launch building? Is 1 gram enough? .1 gram? .01 gram? How about capacity? 100 grams? 1000 grams? 1 grams? Thanks, Brad

[RCSE] Receiver recommendations

RCSE'rs, Now that I'm back in the States, I'm going to need to stock up on 72mhz receivers. I sold all my 35mhz stuff when I left Scotland and currently only have 1 Multiplex IPD receiver on 72mhz. Basically, I need RX's to use with my MultiPlex Profi mc3030 transmitter in the following planes:

[RCSE] Goodbye Scotland...

... Hello California. Well, my one year assignment here in Edinburgh, Scotland is up and I'll be returning to California next week. I've had a great year of traveling, sightseeing, fellowship, and flying (oh yeah, and some work), but I'm looking forward to getting back to my home state. I'd lik

[RCSE] Re: Quiet Flight magazine

Bill, I've got to say QFI (Quiet Flight International) is the best soaring magazine out there - hands down. The only problem is that it only comes out every 2 months. ;) Cheers, Brad in Edinburgh, Scotland > Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2001 08:07:13 -0500 > From: Bill Kuhl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "'[

[RCSE] Travel Case/Box for Sailplanes

RCSE'rs, I'm beginning to think about my trip back from Scotland to California coming up in September. I seem to have accumulated more sailplanes since I arrived here last October - not sure how that happened - but I'll need a way to get them back. ;) Any suggestions for a ready-made case or bo

[RCSE] Mentholated Spirit?

I'm working on fiberglassing a wing and was told to use "Mentholated Spirit" to thin out the epoxy by 40-50% on the final, finishing coat. I've been looking at my local hardware stores, but the closest I can find is "White Spirit" which looks and smells like your standard, everyday paint thinner.

[RCSE] AMD Cyclone experience?

Anybody know about AMD's Cyclone wingeron slope ship? They ran an add in the latest S&E Modeler and it looks good on paper and on the site. Just seeing if anybody has any experience with AMD or with the Cyclone. The site is at: http://www.amd.org.hk/ and the Cyclone page is at: http://www.amd.
