Control Line Scale - 2004/03

THE NOVEMBER 2003 column inspired two items that I would
like to address this month. The first is a response to my comments
about the way Scale or “Beauty” events of old were run. The second
is about the two Control Line (CL) cross-proposals that would affect
CL in general, and especially the Scale events.

CONTROL LINE SCALE - 2004/11

IN THE JULY column I went back to
basics with some words about installing
leadout guides. This month I’m going to
step back again and review the use and
makeup of the standard three-line
bellcrank system that CL fliers have used
for many years. I’ll also cover some of the
problems associated with making the
system and choosing three-line bellcranks.
