That should be just about the right size pile to burn to stay warm by.

Got the pic from Jim just a bit ago. Looking good. We'll be there in the morning...

Got a good hot shower, and I'm ready to go again...... NOT! LOL I think I'll be ok after this second glass of Gin & 7.

Always glad to help out fellow RC'rs.....

If you're short on help to finish the tree line on Monday, give me a shout.

Status: offline 		good to hear that the trees are comining down. bad to hear that greg got hurt though. i had a cracked rib one time and i remember how bad it hurt so i know with three broken ribs greg will have a lot of pain for a while.
i think if we all call greg and tell him funny jokes and make him laugh he would love it...NOT !!!
hope you get better fast greg.

I am searching for assistance on finishing my framed up Spoiler. Several years ago I purchased a set of Spoiler plans from the Manufacturers fun fly rep at a
local event. After framing up the Spoiler, my plans were misplaced during a move of my residence. Contacted East Rc to purchase another set of plans or get specific info on AC Balance point, low and high rate throw settings of all control surfaces, engine thrust angles, hard point locations for control horns etc.
East Rc promised assistance, but no response yet. If there are Spoiler owners willing to assist me with needed info, I would certainly appreciate anyone willing to provide help.

Status: offline 		sl5406, start the C 0f G at around 6 " back from leading edge of the wing. the spoiler can be flown from 5.5 to 7.5 back. on mine and most spoiler flyers i know set the throws for about all you can get on high rates. most don't ever fly on low rates so just a shot in the dark but set low rated about 1/3 of high rates to start and adjust as needed to fit your flying style.

Status: offline 		Hi:

I'm new to this forum and I apologize to break the chain of friendly conversation. Two questions: 1) What is the status of the Spoiler ARF? Based on what I've gathered, the "import ship" has sunk and Engineering has started to draft the plans for a new ship. AKA: delivery is dependent on the completion of said ship. 2) If interested finding Spoiler plans, where would one go to purchase/download? Once again, information seems difficult to obtain. Other than "call Jerry", I have not found additional contact information......phone#, email, address, etc. Sorry for the sarcasim and any/all info is greatly appreciated.

Status: offline 		i don't know of any plans for sale unless you just stumble into some one willing to sell their personal set. from what i understand jerry sold the rights to the plans to east rc and can not sell copies even if he wanted to. if you can get in contact with him he might be able to help.
i'm not sure when the spoilers will be ready but i do hope it is soon.

spoilerman a couple of post back said he was selling his built spoiler. i have seen him fly it several times and it looks to be a very nice plane so maybe that would be a way for you to get one soon.

Status: offline 		Whoo! You boys from Union City know how to do it right. Great looking steaks. How about sharing that marinade and freezing process. Right now I would trade a steak for a couple nice flying days here in Ohio. 2 degrees right now.
Wish those Spoilers would come thru. That money is burning a hole in my pocket and I need to start getting something ready for spring. Either a Spoiler or Balsa Nova maybe. I know it won't fly like the Spoiler. Thanks to all you guys here on the Spoiler/BigBoy Fam. web page.

Doug
