Vic I thought Bob said Great planes for the pre shaped plank or maybe its at tower....Mike, Glad you had a good time ,,we're a pretty fun bunch and that was a pretty light turnout and certainly the wind didnt help things...Thank you for the fuel, I've never tried byrons fuel before but it sounded like your product engine ran fine on it, I added an oz or so of castor to it..it says its 25% nitro but only 16% castor oil?..... I thought I told you not to bother bringing fuel? shoot how much can a reedy racer burn, it you get down here again..I'll handle your fuel supply ok....Oh btw guys I think we hooked a few more members to add to the crew,,some of the visitors thought those little planes were pretty cool.....Rog

Yea, Yea, Vic say it was your battery! It was probably because of that GWS (Glitch With Style) ruined it!!!! Like I said I have a few in slow models but just do not recommend in a racer... Well let me re-phrase that.. I only recommend using the GWS receiver in racers faster than mine!!!!

Guys, Sig makes a 1/4x4x36 taper stock that they tout as "Airfoil shaped sheets". Taper starts at 50% chord.

Mike (dieFluggeister), glad you made it home safe, sound, and just tired. Sounds like my whirlwind trip to SMALL Little Rock last year - busy but fun weekend.

Looking forward to the next reedy race to see the new planes and meet new faces.

Nathan is still asking me about the strange Asian speaking man from the flying field Ya'll will have to come down to experience it first hand... we can prohibit Vicman from eating for awhile to provoke his Asian speaking to entertain all.

HFenn - Are you going to race your Sharkface next time?

That's easy. Put Rog behind the grill again.

I like his cooking.[8D]

One other "where do I get one" Q. The cool bladder tubing Bob used for a pressure tank. That was PDC. I need to try that.
