wind 010/7 kts gusting 13. sun is out..!!!
unfortunately I am working today, have fun guys.

Eh.... One question guys ! ...If we use a Tow plane at BR, wouldn't that be breaking the number 1 rule ? ...and a BIG mother gasoline engne at that !

Please pardon me if you guys are refering to Tuas or other FF rather than BR.

Maybe BR we can setup a bungy launch facility to help bros with difficulities getting off !

Aero Tow will be at either Woodlands or Tuas I think. Have to check with Joe.

Yup... Mr Tian

I know him from 10 years ago, but did not know that he was into RC!! This company supported my projects for some time, but not anymore.

Is he still in the overlay and membrane business? Please say hello to him for me, if you see him again.

[Raven]

Yup... Mr Tian

Btw yesterday too boh liao... so I dig out my M8 and planted the electronics in the windrider bat. Met up Kar Marn aka MSC at the slope and try to fly. Only then I realise my V-tail mixer went kaput... Jialat I use manual human process V-tail. It was a disaster.

Imagine:

Elevator up = Throtter + left
Elevator down = Brake + right
Aileron left = Throttle + right
Aileron right = Brake + left

... 1st time I find it so jialat to fly!!! I just give up flying why must the y-tail mixer died on me. Just not my day

I really had an eye-opener yesterday. Flying planes with a buggy transmitter!! Man...you are good!

BTW, is the guy in the picture with the tow plane is Mr Thian?

I think I mean a fellowship than a club. We don't need a president and vice-president. We only need a tug and many gliders, get it?

Can? Oldman not included hor . I already have the engine. If you guys really interested I will go grab the plane. But there is one problem.... I Hanger Full Liao

[Hawkeye]

I second Joe...running a "offiicial club" is not easy and a lot of man hours needed...there are AGMs, Treasurer repsonsibilities, Minutes fo meetings, bla bla bla.....and when we all get busy...things fall apart very quickly...

Keep it simple...Tow and Go!!

On a serious note though, to get a club running like this we would need support and approval of the proper authorities.

A concerted effort of all flyers to get it up and it is then needed to keep the club running smoothly. So an appointment of any leaders or appointment holders should be of unanimous/major vote of the flyers.

Just speaking my thoughts.

Vice-president? Then i step down now, somebody has to replace me.
Too big a job.

Thanx!

[windgod]

horray, now we hv the president and the vice president.

i recommend a towing expert--- mr gurt

i saw him tow the 4m glider at tuas.

[Vortices]

I second that too....

[randomtask]

Team SoarSingapore.

Thanx!

I think the vice-president-to-be has spoken up too...

Cheers
