Hi Dennis,
I flew the Warp V for round 4 and 5. Only reason I even flew it was I was having
linkage problems with the T-Tail version, and
virtually no set-up time on either. My V walked so badly in distance (due to no set-up
time) it cost me some laps. (Well, that and
some stupidity.) So, back

3M works well, but some people have problems with it delaminating in high heat

Hi there,
I was going to put my balsa skins on my foam core's. I went to the
hobby store to get some oderless one hour epoxy. I was talking with several
guys about this. They told me that I should use 3m super 77 spray,instead of
epoxy. Is this a good choice or not. Does the 3m super 77 w
My father helped a guy build one with ailerons. The center section had
dihedral and the outer panels curved down so that the tops were level.
Ailerons were made up from the "overhang" part of the outer wing panels.
Similar look to a Habicht. He said it flew great, I am thinking about
building on

I used to work in an area of my compnay that required me to purchase

The best value for the money is the Trojan golf cart battery, it comes in

and they tolerate abuse better, but the 12v can b

I have to agree with you on that. If you want to see FAI events grow in the

The Colorado and Chicago contests both offered "sport" classes, and
Colorado had a clinic with Skip Miller teaching it. The East coast guys
have open practices that anyone can attend and get help. If you are
interested let us know.
We did think about running a clinic last year,

Steve,
You're right, but don't have clinic's. It just takes CD's that run the tasks.
If they do, they will find that it can be done without any more help than the
pilots can provide. It's just like running any other event.
Certainly!

I don't necessarily find RC cars easier. The last time my son let me drive his RC
car, I found it heading for the curb at high
speed, so I pulled back stick ... now he won't let me drive his car any more ...

Bill,
Honest, this is just a straight reply!
If that were the case then pilots, CD's or clubs would do the same thing that
the have done to the AMA rules and drop the distance and speed tasks from the
event they run, go to or promote.
Look in the book, can you see where it reads:

Why not run (it's probably been done, cuz I thought of it) a series of
