Hello to all, see here what I just made, it was easy and cheap
A wireless trainer system, using a build in RX into my teacher transmitter.

The idea can be used on all other radios also..

I bought a Great planes Lancair ARF.It calls for a 60-90.Doing inventory of
engines I have available in my drawer,I have a near new OS 60 FP(rn) engine
I got a few years back at a swap.I have read this makes 1.6hp at 15000,and
some decent feed-back on RCuniverse.Also have been told ...

Have noticed recently that when my WOT 4 is running at high revs, the Rudder
servo and thus Rudder twitches both on the test bench and in the air -
causes some tail wagging.
I think it might be due to some metal to metal rubbing somewhere setting up

Have you guys had good experience with PayPal, or bad?  Are they safe
and reliable?  Thanks

Question...in the RC world article the author used poly c and stated
something about 20 mins and the time it takes the bonding agent to float to
the sirface.  Now, the stuff dries in 20 mins, but did he say leave each
coat a min of 20 mins and a max of...? or did he just say, leave ...

I'm in the process of deciding whether to use a double tapered wing or
a constant chord wing. This will be for a high performance electric 3D
weighing about 3 1/2 lbs. The wing span will be around 46" to 48",
depending.

There I was already to set off for a session on the slope when it
started raining. It was going to be one of those days where there were
unexpected showers   >:-(
What to do?  Took refuge in my shed and did a bit of work on the B&Q

Has anyone had any experience producing their own graphics using a PC?  I
would like to produce decals and numerals since some kits lack them such as
my Dynaflite Flybaby kit It is possible to cut them out of covering material
but its an arduous job requiring great patience.

Club member has checked all the local sources and can't find thin wall aluminum
tubing with an inside diameter of 1/2 inch.  Needs for wing tubes for a 1/4
scale
project.  

I think District V can claim a new record for the number of people their VP
can show in his Model Aviation District Report.  In the January 2004 issue
D-V VP McNeill backs up his statement "People are more interesting than
models." with a grand total of 90 people shown on a single ...

I know this is a RC group but I'll ask just in case someone might have
some information. I am looking for a plan for a free flight plane
called a "GOLLYWOCK II". Any information where I might find this would
be appreciated.

I am building my first RC plane (GWS SlowStick).  I believe this is a
3-channel (throttle, rudder, elevator) slow flyer for beginners.  I
have functional throttle and elevator control with my HiTec Flash 5
transmitter (Ch. 3 - throttle / Ch. 2 - elevator).  When I apply power

West Wings Toucan
I'm thinking of buying one of these as a cheap carry anywhere plane.
I have the folloing lying around from a failed attempt to get my son
interested in flying at too early a stage (dead Pico Cub)

I'd like to know how many RPM i can get from a MVVS .91 with std muffler and
a 13*8 or 14*8 APC.
Thanks.
