Microlite Covering
==================
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
FAI MODEL SUPPLY is now handling Microlite Covering.
It is available in two thicknesses:
3 micron ( .00012") .023 oz/sq ft 7 gm/sq mtr
5 micron ( .0002") .035 oz/sq ft 10gm/sq mtr
5 micron is recommended for F1B stabs and small models, it is available
in the following colors:
Light Red, Medium Red, Orange, Light Yellow, and Cub Yellow
$14.50/ 24" x 48" sheet plus $ .50 S/H for up to 2 sheets.
3 micron is recommended for small indoor models and is available in
these colors: Light Red, Light Yellow, Orange, Medium Blue, and
Silver.
$ 8.50/ 24" x 24" sheet plus $ .50 S/H for up to 4 sheets.
Microlite is a iron on heat-shrinkable mylar material that is easy to
attach and easy to repair or remove.
Other colors available as demand dictates.
When can you wind ?
===================
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
In fairness to the non-team selection readers as well as
to the overseas readers,
I am including the the proposal I sent to the AMA:
"Rule 3.2.8.c Replace "must wind their rubber motors and" by "can", to
read "The organizer will establish a ten minute period in which all flyoff
competitors can launch their model."
"Rational: Currently, Wakefield fliers are required to wind their motors
DURING the ten minute flyoff. Winding the motors is done under tremendous
stress, particularly if a motor blows or if any mechanical problems
surface, deducting the preparation time from the flying window."
"In regular rounds, Wakefield fliers can wind their motors before the
beginning of each round. The requirement to wind during a round dates
back to the time when motors were impounded, to assure that only a
pre-processed motor were used. We have,
however, switched to random and post-wining processing, making this
requirement redundant."
"The other events - F1A and F1B, in contrast,get the full 10 minutes to fly
in a flyoff round."
The proposal relieves Wakefield fliers from the onerous requirement to wing
their motors during the ten minute flyoff, allowing competitors to launch the
instance the flyoff begins, just like F1A and C. As it stands todays - the
early fliers are the fastest winders, provided they have not blown a motor! In other words, the better fliers probably believe it is to their advantage.
Maybe it took a person timing the Wakefield fliers at the world champs
to realize that the tremendous pressure fliers are under
is just a self imposed
administrative requirement, The best thing that can be said about the
winding requirement is that it makes a good spectator's sport
The event I happen to fly (Nordic) is irrelevant to the public discussion.
For example, Ian Keynes, who heads the FAI technical committee, has had a
significant influence on the evolution of the FAI rules over time. What
events he flies, if any, are completely irrelevant.
If we could redesign the Wakefield flyoff rules from scratch, it would be highly
unlikely that winding would have placed within the flyoff window.

World Cup Standings
===================
Below are the Free Flight World Cup standings as published
on the FAI web site by Ian Iaynes.. The are complete except for one event
in Boznia, which probably will not affect the podium positions.
What is most encouraging ids the total number of sportsmen that have
scored points. For that reason we have left the number unchnaged.

C.G. Location, location, location
=================================
Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
As the real estate people say, " It is all in the location, location"
C. H. Grant called decalage, longitudinal dihedral. Don't leave home
without it! No matter how big your stab is or how long your tail boom
might be. Experience and history shows that stabs with under cambered
airfoils or inverted airfoils are to be avoided.
The only aircraft that does not come under this rule is the helicopter,
if you consider it an aircraft. The thrust line only passes through the
C.G. when it is standing still. In forward flight there is a huge nose
down pitching moment, which must be controlled by a horizontal tail. The
next time you are near one of those popular Bell Jet Rangers, notice
that it has an inverted, under cambered Goldberg G8 airfoil. Honest! Non
Free Flighters at Bell thought I developed the coordinates myself but
actually they were copied right out of "Model Builder".

Roger,
In case SEN gets low on incoming material, which seems unlikely in
view of the on-going discussion on CG positions, here's a thought that has
often occured to me as one who hasn't flown F1C for about 30 years.
I don't recall ever having seen anyone using turbulators on an F1C model or
anything in print about their ineffectiveness. I can't believe they've not
been tried. Have they? What hapened? Are the higher Reynolds numbers a
reason that nobody uses them? Seeing all those smooth aluminium wing
surfaces around makes me wonder what the effect would be of sticking a few
lengths of that printed circuit masking tape on top.
On that topic, has anyone a current source of that tape? Here in the UK
it's disappeared from the catalogue of one of our major electronics supply
houses, and Radio Shack don't carry it in the USA.
Thermals,
Martin Dilly

F1B = THE 30 GM FUTURE
>From Michael Warren, Free Flight News, England
This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
I'm hoping to prepare an article for FFn on reaction to, and experience so
far with, 30 gm motors. So, for example, what are Wakefield flyers thinking
of doing about motor length/number of strands. (What are you doing now, what
might you do in future, and why any change?) Similarly, what about the
length of motor tubes and, maybe, about model design? The rubber weight
available to us has gone down by 25% in a very few years, and logically
(surely?) there must be implications for F1B design, for rubber preparation
and use, for props, and for hubs.
I know that many are already experimenting with the new weight, so their
your thoughts would be particularly welcome.
All ideas and contributions gratefully received, from anywhere in the world
(including the UK in case I miss anyone!). Please DON'T send the material to
SCAT but to me at
This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
I'm hoping to pull all the material together, looking for themes,
disagreements etc, in the fairly near future, so that I can get the article
ready for the January 2002 FFn. If I could have responses in the next
three-four weeks, I'd be grateful. Maybe this can be a sort of addendum to
my FFn articles on rubber in February-May '99.
Best wishes to all at this difficult time...

Thanks to Sergio Montes, Jean Wantzenreither and Sean O'Connor for
describing in quite eloquent terms the reasons for trimming modern
freeflight models the way we do. I had found Mr Simons' comments quite
offensive to many free flight modellers of past and present who have
spent countless millions of hours theorizing, calculating, designing,
building, trimming, testing and starting over in the pursuit of
performance. Fashion indeed!
In particular, Sean O'Connor describes very beautifully (to me) the
problems of a model which refuses to settle from a stall in a reasonable
time with his analogy of a 'relaxation oscillator'. It took me some time
and many trials and errors to arrive at this understanding, but it is the
key reason I moved the CG's on many of my models further back as on
Spirit 22. Unfortunately I did not trust my own figures and judgement
when I assembled Spirit 25 with a CG of 65% and paid the price in the
final round of the World Champs.
Many people are highly confused and think that a model which refuses to
damp a stall is unstable...
regards
Richard Blackam
