Re: [RCSE] stuck on mandrel

2006-11-15 Thread Larry Storie
I use 1 layer of waxed paper followed by 1 layer of Glad Wrap (or equivalent 
both out of the kitchen cupboard), wrapped around a piece the o.d. of the 
ballast but longer, then roll the wetted fiberglass on.


The waxed paper will not stick to the mandrel and the Glad Wrap will not 
stick to the epoxy and will pull out easily.

Instead of mylar, use a thin release film spiral wrapped around the 
mandrel.  You should be able to pull out the mandrel then pull out the 
release film.  You can use steel rods if you want something more 
consistent than a dowel.

Hi Tony,

Did you spiral wrap the mylar over the mandrel?  I've found that I can 
grab the mylar with a pair of duck bill pliers and gently wrap the mylar 
around them to pull it out of the tube.  It sticks once in a while but I 
can usually reach in and pull the stuck piece out with hemostats.


Happy flying,

Jimmy

[RCSE] Hi-Start Question

2006-11-15 Thread Jimmy Prouty

Hi All,

My son and I like to fly sailplanes whenever we can and I'd like to 
purchase a high start so I don't have to drag out the winch when we 
want to go out for a few quick flights.  What's a good high start 
that will work with smaller planes and also get my Mantis in the 
air?  I don't need spectacular launches with the Mantis, just want to 
get high enough to look for a couple of thermals.  More concerned 
about getting my boy's planes (he's 12) up without exploding them so 
he can learn how to launch.


Really like to get one that will last a while (unlike the old up 
starts that would fall apart after one season.)


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Happy flying,

Jimmy

Well, the last shreds of the mylar came out today, thanks to the suggestion on 
Warren Man-son Hing's site that I referenced in a post here yesterday. I 
received a dozen (actual count) suggestions as to how to do it so as to avoid a 
repeat of this problem. You guys are great -- I promise that whatever boo-boos 
I commit henceforth, that won't be one of them.

I think you will be well served with a Pinnacle Standard  hi-start:
http://www.nesail.com/detail.php?productID=875

or one of the Hosemonster Hi-starts from www.aerofoam.com

You don't say what your son has so I can't judge the size or strength.
Assuming it is some kind of a 2 Meter, I would recommend the Pinnacle
Standard which will also launch your Mantis, or the Aerofoam 2M competition.

Best Regards,
Ed Anderson
