RE: AR vs. Winglets for reducing induced drag

RE: Spanwise Lift and Stall Sequence

Keep in mind that these are very crude generalizations about stall progression on wings. Two different elliptical wings will stall differently due to differences in the airfoil, and protrusions on...

RE: Anyone fly or have flown a velocity xl

It sounds like your CG needs to be farther forward. On canard aircraft, if the CG is too far aft the wing will stall before the canard, resulting in an unstable pitch break during the stall which...

RE: Super Stearman Build

This has turned into a project that I thought I'd never finish. The Saito 1.00 engine is installed and the plane is now covered. I covered the fuselage with silk but decided to cover the wings and...

RE: Hobby Lobby 1/4 Scale Aeronca Champ

I was very excited about this plane, but $589 seems expensive to me (plus $40 shipping). I was looking for a scale plane that flies like a Telemaster. This looked like the closest I would get, but...

RE: Super Stearman Build

The Sig Hog Bipe is definitely a good biplane. My dad has one that I've flown and it flies great. Although, I'm not sure what all you've read about the Midwest Super Stearman. The two main things...

RE: Super Stearman Build

The plane is framed up and ready to cover. I was going to college when I started building it, and my last couple semesters I didn't have time to do anything else except schoolwork. I've not worked...

RE: Selecting the "right" brushless motor

I want to correct a mistake in my first post. P=V^2/R, not P=V/R . Thanks for the link to that site. It is helpful. Also, I did end up finding more information on Hacker's website, though it is...

Selecting the "right" brushless motor

I'm designing an electric powered r/c plane that will weigh around 18 lbs and need to select a motor/gearbox combination. For our application a motor rpm of between 7000 and 11000 would be...

RE: Super Stearman Build

I, too, thought about hollowing out the balsa block in the tail and cutting holes in the sheeting on the tail surfaces, but I'm afraid of weakening the structure around the tailwheel and I kinda like...

RE: GP Fun-one

I think you misunderstood me. The tumble was intentional. The pilot was showing off. The plane did not tip stall. Also, I did not say mine tip stalls badly. When it stalls, yes one wing drops a...

RE: GP Fun-one

I've been flying my Fun One for over 6 years now. It is a blast to fly and does not have a high wing loading. I put dual aileron servos in the wing and use flaperons. In a calm breeze this plane...

RE: Super Stearman Build

I'm in the process of building this kit, but it's taking my quite a while longer than most people because I'm in college full-time. I'm putting a Saito 1.00 on it, and am curious how much nose...

Top Flight T-34B to C Conversion

Hey everyone. I'm interested in Top Flight's T-34, but if I were to buy it I'd want to build the T-34C turboprop version. There are some distinct differences, but most of them are fairly simple...

RE: Game Commander Still with problems

I've had very similar problems with my old, original, RealFlight Deluxe controller and also with a fairly recent Logitech Joystick. This problem is with the sensors in the controller. When they...
