Well coop I have built a brand new p 51 from scratch has about a 40 inch
wing span combination of foam, wood and slow stick parts, and it looks
cool and I think it will fly. =20
I have also built what I'm calling a new stumpy stick not sure it will
fly But it's going to be fun trying wood and foam and about 85%
complete, Hope to finish it tonight also.=20
Also have rewound a Brushless to a delta configuration, with much
heavier wire and it seems to run alright haven't fully tested it I just
hooked it to a controller to see if it would lite up and sing, it did
and it tried to run but I didn't have my transmitter hooked up to
calibrate it, left TR on and had to recharge it will test it tonight. It
will pull a lot of amps, I'm not sure how much with the wire I'm using.
I Pulled the wire out of a fan motor off a school bus (hee hee).
Also have a two wire brushless that I have taken apart that I want to
rewire, WILL BE TRICKY but we can do it we have the technology the six
million dollar brushless has a controller and everything It will be
interesting to see if I can make it work with a standard controller hope
I can. May not need a expensive three wire controller and it has a huge
magnet aught to be able to launch a 10 lb plane if I get it running. The
trick will be converting it to a delta some controllers have problems
with that factory Y configuration so I'm contemplating 4 stator delta
not the usual nine or twelve stator wiring scheme. =20

David,
That makes perfectly good sense. The Esc is actually controlled by the
rcvr
without a signal from the Xtmr nothing happens. You are not the only
one
behind the learning curve. John G. and Bill are very astute and do a
lot of
research and retain it better than most folks. Then we have the father
of
experimental Electric RC, John W. I wonder what he's working on next.
Can't wait to go out with you guys again. I know there's a lot of new
birds
seen over Wooster International. Hope the weather holds up until
November. I
could tell that it had not been a very good month out there. Brren
dreaming
abt flying the Camel. ;-)
I have learned how to keep a two control line kite in the air. It's fun
but
doesn't compare to RC flying.
See you guys later.
John C.
