I think I have a tranny problem or maybe it's just me.
I have a 388 as well as 347's ,and a 783. The 388 seems to have a problem with
the mix FL-A function.
I can get the ailerons to couple with flaps for the launch mode by using the
FN-D position for the switch but when I go to set the reflex
Did I miss something or is there a way to turn off the channel six flap knob?

I spent the morning doing some flat land sloping. The breeze was at 10 and
slowly building. By the time I had the winch set up the breeze was at 12 to
15. I figured what the heck, so I went ahead and launched my Super Sapphire.
With normal launch flaps on and a tiny bit of down elevator

Ok guys, Yes, I agree that the same guys usually win most of the time. However,
while looking over the scores from varies contests it becomes apparent that
even the best of flyers can be forced to fly in bad air. Sometimes, the good
flyers even make a mistake in reading air or in their tactics.
Uh! What was that weather site for Parker Mt. again. I forgot to book mark

Ok, opened the box and read the plans. The plans show a pull pull system for
the stab but they don't say what to use for the pully is the tail?? Is this
a good idea??
I noticed that the flaps and ailerons don't have sheeting at where they were
seperated from the wing. Do I need to sheet these
Ok, thanks to all who replied.

Ok, the Pelican's flaps and ailerons are both warped. Without facing them with
something I don't know how to straighten them out.

Last year at the Visalia bent wing I saw a couple of guys flying what they said
was a streached Spirit 100. They seemed to fly real nice and take as much pedal
as they cared to give them. Any comments from the gallery on modifying this
plane.
It comes as a full house but the flaps and
Nickle Metal Hydrides any good for unlimited work??
I had a flyaway Sunday with my Hera because one cell gave up the ghost in flight.
I checked the pack and she was at 4.9 volts. One hand toss, all the way across
the flying field, one short trim flight to check the elevator compensation with
Did I just miss the who flew what list at the Spring Fling or has it not made

Ok, we were at the field today trying out our new winch/retriever batteries.
We were wondering just how much current/energy (watts, dynes, jouels, ft. lbs,
metric mile tons,)is used in towing up a glass slipper to 700 ft using full
peday and 250 lb test line with a ford long shaft without

I seem to remember when we only had seven frequencies in the 72 band not too
long ago. Of course when I started flying R/C you had one option and that was
27. Well guess what? A few inconsiderate CB'ers would have some fun by holding
down their mic keys and buzzing into the microphone to see

Well another of Merrill Bradys (sp) XC fun fly's is in the history books.
I saw some very interesting birds there. The aircraft ran the gamit from modified

Ok guys, since the new landing judges can't seem to figure out the old
fangled analog stopwatches of yesterday, I guess I need a new one If I'm

What is the popular one now and where do I get one?
I tried to order one from Sal but he

Ok, I know a lot of you guys have been around for a long time.
Here is the question. What is the font that was used for the letters and
numbers that was on the back side of the monokote trim sheets in the old
days before they decided it was too expensive to put them there?
