Some beautiful ships here. My friend is looking to buy a used Super AVA. I was looking but did not see one. If anyone knows of a Super AVA for sale, let me know.

Last Sunday I bought a plane called the Condor at a garage sale. I don't know any thing about it except that it is complete. I believe that it is a 3 meter glider. It has aluminum tubes that actuate the spoilers and ailerons. One of the linkage horns on the plane is broken. Can anyone tell me about this plane? I think it is about 35 years old. A copy of the plan would really be helpful. Is it possible to put a brushless outrunner motor on the plane?
Thanks
Lynn

is the forth one a Katana? and if so is that scale? i didnt know they made a glider version, learned to fly on a katana
Also the picture of the large glider, not sure where that pic came from, but i like it.... also the other two, are of the same glider, one in construction and the other with, my sherpa for my hill adventures.... aka.... my father, hahha

Hey Folks,

This is my 5m ws,10kg PIK20 glider.It has a detachable motor mount, with a Hacker A50-16L motor 18x8 prop powered by 10 cells 4900 LIPO battery.I can aerotow it with my CARF Extra 330L and power it with the electric motor at the same time.I love it.

This us a 85.75in. wing for a 36.5in fuse. I was told to put spoilers on it but I have no idea how to set up the mechanism. Also, if spoilers were on the wing, they would probaly be right in front of the aelerions, which might make turning uncontrollable right when I need the plane level. Does anyone know if the spoilers were put right in front of the aelerions it would cause problems with turning?

scaflock

More than likely they would. Best to keep them inboard by at least one bay from the ailerons. I'd make them 2-3 bays wide at most on each side of the wing. (some people get into over-kill on their spoilers) From what I can see in the 2nd picture, the ailerons should be moved towards the tips by 2 bays. The closer they are to the body, the less effective they will be. That would also make room for spoilers to be added.

If you don't want to go to all the work of moving the ailerons, then make your spoilers 3 bays wide starting at the edge of your sheeting. That would be the quickest way to go.

What other controls are you planning on?

Hi Guys

Here are a couple of PSS models that we are using in the UK at present:

The Fw190 and Me109 are GWS foamies and the Spit is a scratchbuilt all balsa model.

I am currently building a P-40, photos coming soon.
