did a fantastic job running the contest and providing for the pilots
every need. From organization to scoring to equipment everything was run
great. Not to
Thanks to the CSS group for hosting this event. WOW that was some crazy
wind. As for my Supra in the tree - THANK YOU Gordy!!! I was ready to
write it off after we made it out to where the tree was.
BTW - When your caller says to head to the trees and try to get some
slope lift don't do it.
This is so cool. Love the article on Dick Vader's Pod Planes. I learned
to fly slope down at Long Beach some 12+ years ago and Dick was a huge
help. Also flying combat with Pirate Fred and the rest of the guys. This
brings back some great memories.

That is correct. The tips are set at speed when aligned with the wing tip so
normal cruise is slightly below that (1-2 degrees).

The point about IRCHA is that you had 550+ transmitters in the pits and on the

D,
I agree.
But
The World Soaring Masters was not meant to be a World Championship. The use
of World in the name is meant to make it an invitation to the world's soaring
pilots to come and compete. We do have many pilots from around the world that
will be coming to compete against
soaring in the RC world in general. (oops, I used the word world twice
without first checking to see if it's OK) In case you haven't noticed, not many
people outside of RCSE care, let alone know, about RC Soaring. That is the
goal, to build awareness outside of the small rc soaring community.
John
Does anyone think that publicizing this contest outside of RC soaring will
bring any good to RC soaring? Lets show the world that it takes $2000.00
worth of planes (Most will have a backup) and another $1000.00 of radio
equipment to have fun in RC soaring. That should really help recruit new
world brethren, no whining, only flying aroung for 12
minutes and spearing the turf like there is no next round...:-) See
you and the rest of the World in Muncie in September.

Here at Horizon we are helping out a team from one of the local high schools on
a similar type project. These kids are great and just like sponges when you
give them information. I got a kick out one of the boys when he said there is
no way you can find a thermal. He said It has to be
Jon,
JRPA210 is the arm that comes with the servo. If you need a slightly longer arm
go with the 211. Also note that JR servos have 23 splines on the output shaft.
What does this mean you ask? With the servo centered put the arm on, if it is
not in the correct position pull it off and rotate
That's all good, but the only thing I would stress is to use a good hi-torque
servo on the tow release. You should not skimp on the release. I've been doing
this Aerotow stuff for a while and have seen

What's the problem - doesn't your tow master have a release in his plane? I

Tom,
I've made several trips out west and have had good luck with just leaving my
plane in it's Jim Bag. I did make plywood vertical stab and rudder covers to
protect those areas of the plane. Also connect a cable to the D pin that comes
with it so it won't get miss-placed by the TSA. I also

OK Soaring addicts,
If you had 3-days of soaring to determine a sailplane National Champion, what
format/format's would you like to see? Where would this contest be located, and
what would make you attend? Do you even want to compete, or would you just like
to come and fly with your buds? Or
The 9303 can be purchased in Mode-1 configuration. Our service department can
change an existing Mode-2 to Mode-1.
Thanks,
John

Harley,
Those are 3mm machine screws. If you have a hobby shop around that sells car
stuff you can find something there that will work. I usually change mine to an
aluminum hex-head type screw. Usually lots of colors (anodizing) to choose from
too.
Regards,
John
