I like the idea. Let's do it. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Hayes. Web Site http://www.skybench.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 6:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [RCSE] For those that enjoy building and flying wood built up sailplanes
Greetings, Two subjects.... Wood Crafters May 23, 24, 25 freq. availability: Ch 41 available for all three days Ch 11 available Sat and Sunday Ch 22 available Fri and Sat Ch 43 and 52 available Fri Ch 30 and 32 available Sunday Remember, those that fly this year have first rights to their ch next year. Those that signed up first for less than all three days also have the first right. Second subject....I'm thinking about submitting a new AMA rc sailplane class proposal that goes something like this: A. Wood built up sailplane with or without glass fuse. B. Two size classes..100 inch or less and unlimited WS. C. Restricted to rudder, elevator and wing flap D. Wing flap can be coupled to elevator and/or operate as flaperon or spoileron E. Any number of Skegs can be located anywhere at the option of the builder F. Spoilers can be installed at the option of the builder What do you guys think ??? Please, no off line responses, lets keep this idea open to all. Lack of response will not cause me forget this proposal because there are far more wood builders in the USA than subscribers to this list. I think it is time to continue developing wood built up sailplanes and a flapped polyhedral or single dihedral design can be a very competitive sailplane. This would certainly open the doors to creativity which is a hall mark of wood construction.
