Radio Control Jets - 2007/10
DURING THE SUMMER I attended three jet events in four
weekends; I love our flying season! The people involved in
setting up and running these events did a great job, and the sites
allowed for great jet flying.

The Jet World Masters comes to the US
I HAVE A big announcement to make. The
Jet World Masters is coming to the US in
2011! Roger Shipley has worked hard and
secured this prestigious jet modeling event,
and he is leading the charge.
RADIO CONTROL JETS - 2008/04
LET’S SPEND some time reviewing
stability augmentation and the use of gyros
on flight control surfaces. Employing gyros
on flight control surfaces was in vogue at
the last World Jet Masters, and for good
reason: the benefits to the competition pilot
are enormous. These benefits can make
flying any model more enjoyable. Using a
gyro can correct inherent design
deficiencies and do much to reduce or
eliminate the rocking about caused by
gusting winds or turbulent air.

I RECENTLY RETURNED from the
first Wren USA Open Day in Indiana. Ron
Ballard became part of the company a few
years ago and set up shop to service its
turbines in the US. He has built a great
reputation for service and wanted to show
off his shop to friends and customers, so
he invited them in November. What a great
way to end a great flying season.
