If It Flies - 2010/10
HI, GANG. The weather is a never-ending
source of inspiration. This time it was a
string of warm flying days that reminded
me of airframe and engine setup
adjustments that come with the hot days of
summer.
Trimming From the Ground Up Part 3 - 2006/09
IN THE PREVIOUS installment of this
“Trimming From the Ground Up” series I
wrote about improving the ground
handling during takeoff and improving
the controllability of the model in the
critical seconds after liftoff. Right-thrust
and downthrust adjustments figured
prominently.

HI, GANG! The literature is full of the tales
of great deeds and glorious victories won by
noble heroes wielding mighty swords. Let’s
face it; this is the sort of stuff makes for
good storytelling!

What is the aerodynamic center, and what does it mean?
BACK WHEN I
was maybe 17 years
old, there was a
construction article
in the old American
Aircraft Modeler
(AAM) magazine for
an RC Aerobatics
(Pattern) model
called the
“Warlock.” Hello
out there, Jim
Wilmot. If you are
reading this, it may
please you to know
that your novel
design and amusing
article are
remembered.
