RE: [RCSE] Solenoids for winches

I like the Icom IC-R2. It will let you setup any of the RC freqs (27, 50, 72MHz) and much more. I also like to listen to full scale comms on it as well. Happy flying, Jimmy http://www.jtmodels.com I have another inquiry. What is a good scanner to use for our RC freqencies? RCSE-List facili

RE: [RCSE] wing bags

RE: [RCSE] Digital photography

I have the same camera setup and am constantly amazed by how well it works. One of the features that I really like is the burst mode where I can hold the button down and the camera just fires away. I haven't experienced any lag in storing images yet which is just amazing considering how large the

[RCSE] Need info on where to get Pretty Mantis Fuse

Hi All, I've had a Mantis kit in the box for 4 years now and want to fly it this season. Does anyone know where I can get the "Pretty Mantis" fuselage? Like to do that mod while making the plane. Also plan to order the X-tail from Phil. Happy flying, Jim www.jtmodels.com RCSE-List facilities

[RCSE] Mold Help?

Hi All, I know this is off topic but I need help with a mixture ratio for ACP's tooling resin and thought someone here might know. My digital scale died and I can't find one locally. The mixture ratio on the can is 10:1 by weight but no mention of mixing by volume. Anyone else use their

RE: [RCSE] Scanners

I've had an IC-R2 for years and wouldn't be without one now. I use it at work to monitor full size aircraft as well as monitor R/C bands. It's been through the wringer a couple of times and has bounced off of the tarmac more times than I like to admit but still keeps going strong. Highly recommend

[RCSE] GPS Plotting Software

Hi Guys & Gals, Some time ago there was a thread about using a Foretrex GPS in a sailplane and then later plotting the flight in "3D" on a computer. Unfortunately a Windoze crash lead to a complete wipe of my hard drive and I lost all of my links to the site that discussed the software development

RE: [RCSE] High Altitude Glider

Hi JD, It's the FAA's opinion that we should know about the rules, NOTAMs, etc and should find out by our self. There have been several postings on RCUniverse about the subject and the FAA individual say the info (i.e. the AC) is out there and it's our responsibility to find it. Typical beurocrat

Actuall, here's a link to the doc on the FAA site. Much easier to read. http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgAdvisoryCirc ular.nsf/0/1acfc3f689769a56862569e70077c9cc/$FILE/ATTBJMAC/ac91-57.pdf Jim RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send "subscribe" and

RE: [RCSE] High Altitude Glider

Hi Mark, Actually, there is an FAA AC 91-57 that 400' is the limit(http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgAdviso ryCircular.nsf/0/1acfc3f689769a56862569e70077c9cc?OpenDocument). As you'll see in the document, how close you are to an airport has no bearing on the altitude limi

RE: [RCSE] High Altitude Glider

Jim, I've seen this site before. Projects like this are the reason that the FAA wants to regulate UAVs (and RC aircraft) flying under autopilot or video downlink. This case is specifically mentioned when they talk about having to control any aircraft in "their" airspace. It doesn't apply to RC

Hi All, We're making the new Plane Packs 66" long to be able to make a "one bag fits all" product. It will be available for two piece or three piece wings (the three piece will cost a little extra). I'm currently working on our website and will have pictures and prices online within a week or tw
