Default Don't stop!

Those of you who are willing to share information with us are much appreciated, however mundane the information may seem to you, at times. Ollie, in particular...You've been a tremendous help. Thanks!

I'm finicky in the design phase, and try to get all the math nailed down, so I can build structures with confidence. Sometimes, though, it's good to hear this math verified by someone you trust. (or not...then I learn something.) I want to know ALL the answers, and some of them are things I haven't personally researched. I sometimes feel that to get verification about design issues from particpants in the know here is a sort of "monaker" proving a good design. I then sleep better.

Anyway, thanks to all of you. This has been a great year for me, largely thanks to RCU... sincerely. Sharing information and ideas in a constructive way is the best thing on the planet, to me. Until we all get CFD, virtual wind tunnels, intuitive airfoil design programs, "feedback" feel built into our radios, onboard flight recorders, and better integrated CAD in the design process, (for a few hundred dollars!), I depend on you a lot.
