Why is it so quiet?

[michael middleton]

did the heading change all 360 degrees of rotation, probably so. did the wing stall, probably not.By definition, a snap is a stalled condition, not a controlled gyration of the aircraft about its axis with control surfaces deflected.who flies a snap roll?  not Somenzini. Who are these judges anyway?-------------------michael

  Let me add a little fog...
  Somenzini's snaps do not have a displaced track... it is do able!

    It can be very, very bad.
    Or not.

    Let's talk about displacement of the flight track during snap rolls.  Whatcha y'all think?  Is it downgradeable, and if so how much, and what is the criteria?

      Ya well, it's definitely not going on the primary bird. For that I have a trusty OS 160FX with vp30 pump. I know it will run when I want it to run.

      Just like me "testing" a new design, testing my feather cut, testing my composite skillz (or lack of), so far so good. Of course I didn't make the YS, so that one is more of a massochistic tendancy methinks. I'm not skeert to spend a buck. Plus it wouldn't take too much to drop in an OS if it comes to it. I've gotta see for myself if the fire is as hot as it looks. I usually suffer 3rd degree burns right after one of these moments.

      Classic last words: "How bad could it be?"  =)

      PS Ok ok NEXT year.

        You have less than 3 days, then.  Could be tricky for you.
        Besides, how does one "try" something that costs $700+  ?  Sounds a bit like "testing" the $3500 plasma tv.....

          P.S. I am actually going to try a DZ 160 some time this year. This could mean the apocalypse is near.
