Hi, i am looking for description of 3D manouvers like , elevator, blender, harrier, waterfall etc. Ive read about them, but never seen them. I wish someone... anyone out there could post a link from where, beginners like myself, could just print all the stuff and take it to the field to practice 'em one by one.
BTW i am flying GP gee bee 40 profile with OS .46 FX and my other plane is CG extra 300s with OS 1.08 . The extra is a new machine (with lots of mods) and i've done 5-6 sorties on it so far just to get the feel and to get the engine broken in on a rich needle setting.
I think you learn fast if you could see someone doing 3D stuff on your field. Since amongst 12 regular members only 4-5 own a 3D capable machines and none 3D's like i imagine it be. SAL 98 has described waterfall beautifully, i think i'll try it out this Sunday !!!

In the latest issue of Model Airplane News there is an article by Quique. (pronounced- key kay)
He has finished in the top 5 at TOC the last several years. The article only describes one 3-D manuver
but I hope it will be a regular feature. You might also check at Dessert Aircraft.com They have great TOC coverage and might know more about where to get the info you are looking for. I noticed you didn't put
were your from. There might be someone in your area you can watch fly. I can learn more by watching
then having someone tell me how to do it. (This comes from being thick headed.) After watching Sean
Mcmurtry fly a 3-D routine several times it not only helps the learning curve but gets you really excited
to try it. later daveo
