[RCSE] JR Tranny Problem?

I think I have a tranny problem or maybe it's just me. I have a 388 as well as 347's ,and a 783. The 388 seems to have a problem with the mix FL-A function. I can get the ailerons to couple with flaps for the launch mode by using the FN-D position for the switch but when I go to set the reflex

[RCSE] Flat Land Sloping

I spent the morning doing some flat land sloping. The breeze was at 10 and slowly building. By the time I had the winch set up the breeze was at 12 to 15. I figured what the heck, so I went ahead and launched my Super Sapphire. With normal launch flaps on and a tiny bit of down elevator

[RCSE] He Man

Ok guys, Yes, I agree that the same guys usually win most of the time. However, while looking over the scores from varies contests it becomes apparent that even the best of flyers can be forced to fly in bad air. Sometimes, the good flyers even make a mistake in reading air or in their tactics.

[RCSE] Pelican

Ok, opened the box and read the plans. The plans show a pull pull system for the stab but they don't say what to use for the pully is the tail?? Is this a good idea?? I noticed that the flaps and ailerons don't have sheeting at where they were seperated from the wing. Do I need to sheet these

[RCSE] Spirit 100

Last year at the Visalia bent wing I saw a couple of guys flying what they said was a streached Spirit 100. They seemed to fly real nice and take as much pedal as they cared to give them. Any comments from the gallery on modifying this plane. It comes as a full house but the flaps and

[RCSE] Hydrimax Batteries

Nickle Metal Hydrides any good for unlimited work?? I had a flyaway Sunday with my Hera because one cell gave up the ghost in flight. I checked the pack and she was at 4.9 volts. One hand toss, all the way across the flying field, one short trim flight to check the elevator compensation with

[RCSE] Winch current draw.

Ok, we were at the field today trying out our new winch/retriever batteries. We were wondering just how much current/energy (watts, dynes, jouels, ft. lbs, metric mile tons,)is used in towing up a glass slipper to 700 ft using full peday and 250 lb test line with a ford long shaft without

[RCSE]

I seem to remember when we only had seven frequencies in the 72 band not too long ago. Of course when I started flying R/C you had one option and that was 27. Well guess what? A few inconsiderate CB'ers would have some fun by holding down their mic keys and buzzing into the microphone to see

[RCSE] XC Goal Day

Well another of Merrill Bradys (sp) XC fun fly's is in the history books. I saw some very interesting birds there. The aircraft ran the gamit from modified Paragones to custom built glassies and everything in between. I saw one scalie flying via aerotow and he seemed to be skied out most of

[RCSE] Need a Stopwatch

Ok guys, since the new landing judges can't seem to figure out the old fangled analog stopwatches of yesterday, I guess I need a new one If I'm going to be competing with the kids, (read that, under 40). What is the popular one now and where do I get one? I tried to order one from Sal but he

[RCSE] Font question.

Ok, I know a lot of you guys have been around for a long time. Here is the question. What is the font that was used for the letters and numbers that was on the back side of the monokote trim sheets in the old days before they decided it was too expensive to put them there? Regards, Perry

[RCSE] Sea Breeze

You guys ever heard of a Sea Breeze. She a 100 inch poly but is foam and obechi. Rudder/Elevator but no spoilers or flaps. I was wondering what the airfoil is?. It is highly under cambered and looks decidedly European is overall design. She has a full flying T stabilizer. Anyone hazard
