Hi All,
I have been asked by many people if there will be
another version of Spieltek's IHLGF 2002 Technical report.
The answer is Yes!
This year I beleive I got a picture of every pilot
with his plane. Many of these pics were before the carnage occured.
I took more than 200 pictures, alot of pictures of technical stuff, took alot of
notes on construction, new watches, tails, servos, etc. I even managed to
get more than 2 hours of DL video of Joe, Oleg, Bruce, and many more. I
got sequences of planes coming in and then being relaunched. I got
insights on how to practice events as well as more.
I had a very abitious form for gathering data, but
could not get every plane. For many planes this was their second trip to
the contest, however for the new planes I tried to get all the data. I
will be merging the data for the old planes of last year with the new data for
this year.
I hope to take a new apporach to the designing of
the CD, but it will not be big in artwork, however it will have alot of pics, as
I mentioned before.
If you are interested in being notified when the CD
is ready, send me a email offline and I will add you to my growing list.
Please know I have to increase the price a bit because the Mrs ( and the company
president says I need to to break even.
It was really a great contest. Thanks to Tom
Clarkson and Ron Scharak for taking the time to talk to me about the IHLGF
goals. A great group of people.
For those of you who missed it, put it on your
calendar for next year. You will not be disappointed!
Thermals,
Chris
