I just wanted to let everyone know that I ran into MSG Todd Landen (from the wounded warrior program) at SEFF this past week. Man, the people at SEFF hooked him up. They passed around the bucket for donations. Between the pilots and vendors he recieved enough to get him flying and keep him flying for a nice long time.

I remember Todd and his family- where are they living these days? Are they still local to us?

Watch till the end for the 25% and 5% speed time stretch.
Mark can analyze what happened.
Me, I'd put a gyro on the ailerons, I'll be curious to know what caused the wing rocking.




Dave, awesome video!!! Not so great flying.

I think the damage will be easy to fix.

I'm at a loss as to what caused the wing rocking. It seemed to go away at high speed.

The crash looks like a stall, the model seemed to roll off to the right, sliding into the right gear, then whipped around. Talk about whiplash!

Good to see a lot of people flying at the field. The food was great and I don't think we could of gotten a nicer day for flying!

Why don't we start an official FSA Facebook Page? It would be a lot easier to keep track of all the posts etc.

Status: offline 		I don't like Facebook for RC/Club use either. I don't know how it is restricted but people who are your "Friends" (which in my case is only relatives and college,high school buddies) can see what your posting. Plus my facebook account is really my houshold and not just me. Nothing is stopping someone from starting one, but I don't like the idea of it replacing RCU. RC is my GETAWAY from work and home life.....

Status: offline 		It took at long time yesterday to prepare for flight... but Carlos' B-25 took to the air and flew great. A tad tail heavy, but we threw 6oz on the nose and she was right after that....

Boy was I ever nervous on that maiden flight.

I was wondering how compatible the JR11 channel radio and the Spektrum DX8 are with saving their flight programing to an SD card. I did not want to take a chance, so I did not try it during the radio switch.

Status: offline 		An update on Todd,


As my surgery went south, things just really changed for us. I'm not even allowed to leave San Antonio or Brooke Army Medical Center. Aprel and Bri will be flown back to get Aprel's car and to load up our 6x12 enclosed trailer with as much stuff we'll need in the next year or so and a few planes.

Even though I thought I'd be on my way back to Benning today, I am now permantly assigned to Brooke Army Medical Center or Sam Houston Army Medical Center (changing the name).

As we met so many caring and concerned people and new friends at SEFF, I wanted to get an update out to everyone I could.

Our new address and contact data is:

MSG Todd Landen
Fisher House 4, RM 411
3623 George C. Beach Ave
Fort Sam Houston, TX 78234

(315)-222-4861/4862 (Todd/Aprel)

I'm hoping people can view it w/o having to log in if you don't have facebook. These I think are set to public.
