I fly mainly at the slope. For the mots part there is not a frequency board.
In that case it is proper etiquit to announce your frequency every time you
launch even if you have been using that frequency all day. I have two

Hi guys,

I have finally committed to a large order of EPP
and thus can now pass the cost savings on. My EPP ODR racer the "Foamone" is now
priced at $55. You can check it out at my newly revamped web site www.midwestslope.com

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.
I have used the new stuff with success. I just use several light coats. As
alwasy test it on the actual foam that you are using.

With some work you could probably make a wing plug and then lay up an
acceptable set of wing molds. The costs would only be comparatively low with
more labor on your part. You can also do a good job with bagged wings.

At 2 thick you can use straping tape to strengthen the fuselage. At 1.5
you will need to add additional support. I would run carbon tube or basswood
longerons from the tail to about 2 from the nose on both sides.

Be careful when bungee launching a foamie expecially if it is not built for
it. I have pounded two of them when the speed over powered the ailerons.
Just start with a couple of pounds of pull and work up from there unless the
plane is built for it. I would say that a standard high start can pull
The two things that I can think of that would cause that are: releasing too
late and hooking the release.. Releasing too early should only cost you
launch height. By hooking I mean that your body stops rotating but your arm
still is. This is also linked to releasing too late. There are alot of
