Ya, how to's can be a bit dry, and glider how to's can be bone dry! It's a hard subject to teach, technical, fussy, and some methods are slow to show.
I'll be the first to admit I'm not the most congenial mesmerizing talk show host, buy hey, I know my stuff and can demonstrate this subject in a way most can understand. I've filmed some of the most knowledgeable guys in the sport and not one would be a great public speaker or bubbly host, but man, they will blow you away with their experience and know-how. Getting in front of the camera and being coherent is SO difficult. I respect those pro TV guys way more now than I used to! Ed's right, skip the banter and flash, and show me the goods. A smooth flowing narrative and covering the small details is vital. Some of the how-to productions I've studied were 80% fluff and 20% useful info. If you have some ideas on how to improve glider how-to's, George and I would like to hear them.... Got any idea's for future instructionals? Would like to hear of those too. I'm working on some cool new DVDs which will be out by May. My new Performance Tuning instructional should keep you all happy until then. http://radiocarbonart.com/Pages/perftunemain.html Paul Naton RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
