composite over blue foam bagging project. I'll soon need to cut out my
ailerons...What is the best method of doing this. I used 2 layers of

cut and chamfer(the way they did
Hi all,
the second contest in the 2001 JR/Airsail F3B series
(North Island, New Zealand) took place over the weekend.
Despite a weather forcast that had people hurriedly
digging out their wet weather gear we actually got in
five uninterrupted rounds of F3B over the two days.
As usual full

I would suggest the 2M Gnome from Midway for a first
built-up ship. $45 at Hobby People and able to take a real
winch launch. Can be built with or without spoilers. Flies
MUCH better than a Highlander and is quite durable for a
wood plane.

I'll be e-mailing all of the entries that have given me an E-mail to reply
to TONIGHT. I will call the rest tomorrow. I'm working on a page now for our
club news letter. There is still room for more pilots if you have not
entered. E-mail me that you are coming and what channel your flying on.
Ya. I can roll better to the right and make better left turns than right.
Go figure. Practice, practice, practice. Charles.

But this appears to be the new version:
That's a hard one... I'm right handed, play guitar and shout rifles left
handed. I also prefer left handed turns over right ones. Maybe its just
easier for us as humans and RCers to push the stick than pull it.

Write lefty , throw lefty , fly fish (cast) either but always reel with the
right . Fly righty simply because no one would help me when I swapped the
sticks , I guess you could say I learned to crash lefty before I flew righty
:)
Still I'd have to say I'm a little more comfortable turning left ,
As a right handed mode 1 flyer a left turn is what occurs most
naturally though I have no difficulty thermaling in either
direction. Enough brain power is comsumed trying to stay in the
thermal that little natural instinct remains, this may or may not
be the secret to those missed times

tell what the quality is like. The Eastern
european manufactureres are in the same price range as the Fox but fully built and
molded.
