We are still in the throws of winter but it will break soon and we can get the sailplanes out again. Until then, we still thankfully have the "Dome" and "Club Meetings". The last meeting was a stand only attendance so we must be doing something right.

Wolf is really into electric motors. He is now developing a two-motor counter-rotating prop system without needing a hollow shaft. Really cool workout Wolf. |
 |
Here is the close-up of the system. |
 |
Wolf explaining the workings to Rob Hair (one of my heli flying friends). |
 |
Dennis Kozak watching Barney fly his own design foamie. It takes a lot of concentration to fly in close quarters. |
 |
Corven explaining why his motor is not in the plane. OOP's. |
 |
Not sure if Jack thinks he can make new foamies this way or not. Go see him at the Prop Shop where he works part time. |
 |
Rick and John closing up for the day. It is off to the restaurant for lunch. | ||

Mike Wade trying to help Wolf understand 2.4 equipment. |
 |
Corven detailing the "Beer Cooler" contest and Belger not sure he believes it. |
 |
I am holding the Extra 350 from Kennedy Composites- Fantastically light
and well built ARF. Power is a Potensky 200 and power will be a 3 cell LiPo 800 mah. |
 |
Barney with his Dallaire that has been around for many years and was originally powered by a 0.19 fuel burner. The plane is getting an update to an outrunner and new skin. |
 |
Another shot of the Dallaire |
 |
Wolf, Bob Bityk and Bill Jarski discussing what motor to use. |
 |
Ken Rogus and Tom Laclave are admiring the laminated stab built by Bob Belger for his Dallaire Truly a work of art. |
 |
This meeting was standing room only. It is very satisfying to see such a nice turnout. |
