[RCSE] filiment tape

I can't find 3M filament tape used for building foam planes. I've looked in Office Max, Office Depot and Home Depot. Who carries it? Thanks, Randy RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send subscribe and unsubscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[RCSE] Re: winch problem

Hey John, I sounds like trouble in the brush area for sure. We are pretty rough on our motors, we push 12V thru a 6V motor, then we power retrieve for the next launch. This puts a lot of electrical as well as mechanical wear on the brushes and commutator. I change out brushes every season, same

[RCSE] Futaba 9CHF SWITCH LOCATION

Hi All, does the Heli version of the 9 channel have the launch/normal/speed switch on the left side of the radio? Can you change the trim setting for the elevator from the right side to the left side? TIA, Rich RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News. Send subscribe and

Re: [RCSE] re: Problems with RD6000

In a nutshell - when his aerial is fully/partially extended his RX doesn't respond at all. As soon as you touch the extended aerial with the bare hand or fully collapse it, the RX responds. My RD6000 once had similar behavior -- very flaky RF output. The problem was a poor connection with the

[RCSE] Flaperons v. Spoilerons

Hi All, I would appreciate any comments on pros and cons of Spoilerons and Flaperons. I have a couple of hotliners and have set them up with Spoilerons ( they have ailerons outboard ). I have an SR X-250 and the like ( full span ailerons ) and have set them up with Flaperons. Is this the best

Re: [RCSE] Flaperons v. Spoilerons

It's been my experience that using flaperons for landing is a bad thing. They do slow you down very well, but they also kill you aileron response at low speeds. Basically, if you think about the geometry of it, you can end up with a situation of cranking the stick over and having the aileron on

Re: [RCSE] Futaba 9CHF SWITCH LOCATION

Yes! The 3 position (launch/normal/speed) is on the left were we need it for gliders on the Heli version. Only the 9Z allows you to change trim assignments. You can get most of the questions answered at http://www.futaba-rc.com/faq/faq-9c.html Maurice --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL

[RCSE] Hang gliding - Off topic

I remember awhile back that I heard about a show on racing hang gliding. Does anyone know if it will be on again soon? I recently got the wings channel and would like to see it even though I would not be crazy enough to try it. If some one has it on tape I would be interested in a copy.

[RCSE] Great day

I finally have finished my Level III with a cross country today, went about half again as far as I had to, was good lift and no problems, flew at the field after return for 5-6 minutes before landing. Thanks Terry Mickle and Mike Reed for the assistance. Jerry Miller SOSS-Medford, OR RCSE-List

[RCSE] Thanks for all the help on my Ninja / New Website

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has helped me with my Ninja questions since I got it. Its fully built and has flown a few tosses at the park. I had to adjust the CG, but that's it. The FG reinforcement helped alot. See my website (which is a brand new design just published today)

[RCSE] 60 Electric

I'm in the market for a +-60 electric sailplane (speed 400, 480 or?), with a middle-of-the-road cost. Glass fuse and ailerons are a must. Does anyone have something like this for sale or maybe point me in the right direction (web site, mfg., etc.) ThanksDan

Re: [RCSE] A fun day

Kevin's new sailplane was a scratch built RES-MAXX. Congrats to him for a job well done. Can't wait to see him when he gets used to it. the progress on the kit version is coming along nicely. I should have the kit ready in a month or two. A test run of parts is going out this week and if all of
