Re: [RCSE] Re: smelting lead
Silver solder is I believe more expensive. How much I don't know. It is usually used in refrigeration work. Heat pumps, coolers and freezers. It has a higher melting point and is usually done with a torch. RB [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: At Home Depot they have lead free"silver" solder in rolls of large guage..how would that be? Is it really silver? is it meant for solder gun or propane torch? Rodger RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Re: [RCSE]... MH32 airfoil (vs. 7037)
That's interesting, because my Dominator has an MH32 airfoil, and it *moves* quick, even unballasted. It was one of the first things I noticed about that glider. It just cruises and penetrates even when its not carrying. I don't know how much the planform contributes to its speed and locomotion alone, but I thought that 7037 is notoriously slow, and good primarily for hang-time. So if the MH32 and 7037 look so similar, why the apparent discrepancy in behavior? -Paul Jill and Rick Brown wrote: If you overlay the two foils in Compufoil the MH32 is very nearly a copy of the 7037.

[RCSE] Re: [RCSE]... MH32 airfoil (vs. 7037)
Paul, Excuss me for being too simple in my response. The MH32 is the same shape. I belive if you modify the 7037 thin it a little and decamber it just a bit you end up with the MH32. Thus the speed and penetration. By the way how much of a dog is the 7037? Anyone who flys it may respond.

Re: [RCSE] Re: [RCSE]... MH32 airfoil (vs. 7037)
I just realized maybe your were not asking about just TD, which is what was on my mind at the time. In that case. On the slope I like the NSP Sparrow, RG15. Or the Patton Aircraft Mini-P51 is a ball, I don't know what foil. Also have a DAW Me109 combat. Of course it feel like a dog after flying the Mini-P51. HL, I fly 7080 or 6063 bagged stuff. Back to the 7037. If you set it up with the right amount of reflex and ballast your plane a bit it flys kinda nice. Don't you think. I know I'm jumping ahead in the schedule but we do have to decide which airfoil is best for TD. Don't we? RB Thanks for asking.

[RCSE] Re: [RCSE]...airfoil (7037)
Jill and Rick Brown wrote: By the way how much of a dog is the 7037? Anyone who flys it may respond. I have had 3 open class TD gliders with the 7037 airfoil. 1 Genesis, 1 Victory (obechi) and 1 Victory C (C/F). The Genesis was definitely the fastest of the 3. It has less area and weighs more than the Victories. It would perform well with ALOT of camber dialed in once it was in a thermal. The Victory was quite a bit slower. It has larger flaps than the Genesis, and would slow waaay down (comparitively). It too, would do well with camber, but just not as much. If too much was dialed in, the handling became sluggish and it would want to fall into a turn. The Victory C came in about 4-1/2 ounces less than the wood skin version. (lighter tail, CF pushrods, gear farther forward) It flies very noticably slower than the other two planes. It also seems to perform better with less camber. It will circle slower than it's predecessors without dropping a wing or the nose. ( I added trilerons to it, and now it will really hang a wing tip.) I haven't yet ballasted it up, as it still penetrates in our mild SoCal winds. I have a hollow steel wing rod that I have been planning to fill with lead, so I will try it soon (yeah, right). So, what airfoil do you want? How fast do you need to go? Wiggle your sticks David Judson Riverside, CA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: Re(2): [RCSE] Why we shouldn't inhale lead fumes (or eat ballast)
At room temperature, Lead has no vapor pressure. - Original Message - From: Jim Ealy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2000 1:11 PM Subject: Re(2): [RCSE] Why we shouldn't inhale lead fumes (or eat ballast) Lead shot and vapors Lead is without doubt the main culprit in "mental retardation" in children. Even thinking about melting lead - using lead solder in (near) a house with small children is irresponsible. The vapor - leaded gasoline - has been shown to have a nearly perfect cause and positive effect with vegetable gardens: mental retardation and distance of garden from major highways. Remember all of my (your) handlaunched gliders used a small sliver of lead from toothpaste tubes and clay - that is why I am the way I am ;) Lead soldered canned foods was a disastor, lead water pipes, lead paint. Paint used lead compounds, one compound was sweet tasting, like sugar, kids licked the paint off of walls. The list goes on--even if you tolerated (read macho) it, do not use it for the sake of your kids or grand kids. buy a 25 lbs bag of lead shot for $13.95 and cover it with epoxy in the nose, drill a small hole, bigger than the shot and then you get add to delete nose weight.. At room temperatures, the vapor pressure is low, very low compared to mecury. jim RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
