IN THE GREAT Northeast we have wind and plenty of hills, but
so often they are covered with trees. We have suitable terrain and
plenty of wind for Slope Soaring, but trees keep the pilot from
seeing the sky and rob us of landing areas.
Finding slope sites in New York and New England generally
means looking for hills with clearings. Another characteristic of a
great flying site is water in front of the hill. Wind passing over
water is smoother than wind passing over terrain, and it makes for
smoother lift. We like flying with an ocean, a lake, or a river out
front.
The eastern shore of Lake Ontario presents a productive slopeflying
site at Sterling, approximately 30 miles northwest of
Syracuse, roughly 15 miles south of Oswego. At Sterling bluffs we
have public-park land that includes a 100-foot, northwest-facing hill
with water upwind, clear of trees for a 300-foot ridgeline, and a
huge, grass-covered landing zone (LZ).
The LZ may be the flying site’s best feature; it slopes gently
toward the lake and serves well for test flights of a new sailplane—
a final check of balance and control throws before committing the
model to big lift. The landing area is the size of a football field and
not only makes landing for beginners a snap, but also allows safe
landings of large, fast sailplanes.
Early test flights of Steve Savoie’s big Scale Lockheed U-2 spy
plane were made at this site, before its appearance at Soar Utah.
Sterling was my choice for flying a Yellow Aircraft Douglas A-4 Skyhawk ducted-fan kit (converted to slope) and the Plane Insane
Models solid-wood Thorn, because it will have a high landing speed if
it has a high wing loading. The larger and faster the model, the more
you’ll like Sterling’s enormous, grassy LZ.
One drawback to the site is recovery of a downed model out front.
The gravel-covered beach is approximately 3 feet wide, and the steep
slope gets muddy in damp weather. It is possible to recover a model
on the slope face, and there are paths to the beach, but recovering out
front is not nearly as pleasant as a walk through the pasture at the top
of the ridge. We don’t do a lot of foamie combat here.
One other possible hazard is the trees on both ends of the ridgeline.
There’s roughly 300 feet of cleared corridor between the tree lines, but
it’s possible to get in trouble with them in certain moments of
inattentiveness.
I remember a time when Wayne Rigby was flying my Scale
Mitsubishi A6M Zero. I had built four slope scale models at that point
and wanted to get Wayne hooked on these “iron horse” warbirds. Hey,
the more the merrier.
During the flight, which he appeared to be enjoying, I mentioned
that I bought the glider built and finished for $350. It had been through
a lot and had received many repairs, but it still flew extraordinarily
well. I told him I figured it was 90% used up and that I’d sell it to him
for 35 bucks plus the two $10 servos.
Wayne said “Okay,” and before the next turn the Zero flew into the
trees. I figured that the title to the aircraft passed at the moment
Wayne said he wanted it, and it was his airplane.
The Zero fell out of the tree and, in typical style, had no more
damage than a 5-square-inch chunk torn out of the wing LE and the
foam-core-sheeted wing. I repaired the wing damage, Wayne
refinished the sailplane, and he flew it for five more years. A $350
model is cheap if you fly it 350 times.
Although Buffalo, Syracuse, and Albany slope pilots flew at this
site in the past, we did not write about it because we were unsure of
the land ownership. Now it is a Cayuga County park, and we know we
are not trespassing. We mix in with the hikers and picnickers, and we
pack out our trash.
A trip to Sterling becomes a priority for me when we have 20 mph
winds from the northwest in the National Weather Service marine
forecast. I’ve flown a Bob Martin Coyote in 5 mph wind there. Almost
any foamie will fly at 10 mph. At 15-20 mph, you can rip up the sky
with F3F racers and scale iron horses. Sterling is the flying site where
one memorable flying day, Joe Chovan and I decided that a 60-inchspan
Leading Edge Gliders warbird was a must-have sailplane.
To get to the ridge, drive to the end of McIntyre Road as shown on
the online map, park at the barrier, and walk a few hundred feet
westbound down the gravel road. When the trees on your left open up,
head into the open field, where you’ll find trails through the tall
grass. By now you’ll see gulls and turkey vultures slope soaring. Just
walk to the edge, launch, and fly.
Did I mention that the lift is good at this site? Yeah it is—in
spades!
Potting Servos: EPP foam is terrific for airframe construction in
models that need to land in rough areas and survive collisions and
bad landings. This material’s springy action is an advantage in
shrugging off impact damage, but it can make
it trickier to install tight servo linkages.
“Potting” a servo takes care of this problem.
The more “slop-free” a servo linkage is,
the more accurately the control-surface
positioning will be. This includes the
desirable trait of having a servo consistently
return to the same center point after being
deflected in either direction.
We go to some trouble in servo-linkage
hardware selection and fitting so that all parts
move freely, or without binding, but have no
extra clearances that would cause play or
looseness. All components can be carefully
installed, but a servo mounted in a slot cut
into the foam alone commonly exhibits
movement as the control surface is deflected.
EPP foam has give, so the servo moves in use.
An easy way to eliminate the foam flex
and the servo movement is to “pot” the servo
in epoxy that surrounds it in the locator slot
that is cut into the foam. This makes a rigid,
tight-fitting receptacle that is bonded firmly to
the surrounding foam.
Start by using a blade to cut a slot for the
servo and removing the excess foam with
small-nose pliers or a rotary tool. Making the
hole slightly oversized does not present a
problem with this mounting method.
Mix a small batch of epoxy and add
microballoon filler for weight reduction and
to make it easier to cut or grind off the excess
epoxy. I use approximately a 1:1 ratio of
epoxy to microballoons.
Put some epoxy/microballoon mix in
the slot and lay one thick or two thin
sheets of plastic over the hole. I use a
plastic bag for this; two thicknesses of
sandwich-bag plastic will work fine.
Press the servo and bag down into the slot
until the servo reaches its intended position.
The epoxy/microballoon mix should ooze out
on all sides. If it doesn’t, remove the servo
and the bag, and add more mix.
When the epoxy has cured, remove the
servo and carefully peel the plastic out of the
slot. Remove hardened oozed-out epoxy with
sandpaper or a rotary tool. At this point you’ll
have a rigid servo slot with enough clearance
to get the servo in and out easily.
Finish mounting the servo with a dab of
Goop or silicone glue on each of its long
sides, and let that cure. That adhesive is
applied so that when it comes time to remove
the servo, running a blade along the sides will
free the servo from the adhesive and make it
removable.
I have finished construction of three new
foamie sailplanes for the cross-country
driving trip to the Midwest Slope Challenge
in Kansas. Each of the new models has potted
servos.
Shown is the servo in the Leading Edge
Gliders P-80 Shooting Star wing. I potted
aileron servos in the new SkyKing RC
Products DAW Schweizer 1-26 wings, and I
did so with both aileron and elevator servos in
the Magnum Models F-5 Tiger.
Good Equipment: I purchased a Peak
Electronics SuperTest Pro lab-quality
battery tester and soon wondered how I
ever maintained RC airplanes without it. I
think I have discarded too many good
receiver battery packs and continued to use
marginal packs.
136 MODEL AVIATION
To use the instrument, charge a transmitter
or receiver pack and connect it to the tester.
The device slowly discharges the pack and
records its capacity, letting you know if the
pack is delivering its rated capacity. If it’s
below 80% capacity, discard the pack.
In the first two weeks I used the
SuperTest, I found two 10-year-old receiver
battery packs still putting out their rated
capacity and four packs of various ages that
were substandard. Using this device delivers
great peace of mind. RadioShack stores
accept old batteries for recycling or
environment-friendly disposal. MA
