Tom,

Your assumptions on the maneuver #19 in P-07 are correct.
As long as the rolls are centered on each line, the two lines
can be of different length.

  The storm arrived!!! Now I'm running around all day fixing equipment and
replacing surge protection ! LOL.
  Mind you , the air was sensational for flying this morning. We are not
used to thicker air here ( I think I'm at about 800 m ASL) and the Dingo
performed like a Mongrel!! I was resigned to more 'poodle' like performance
with the way the weather was-but today, it was on fire!!!  It was so much
easier to fly-it was astounding. This brings me to a question:

  P0-7: turnaround manoeuvre-Half horizontal hourglass.

  The second leg going back up with the two half rolls (reversed). Am I
correct that this leg can be a different length than the first leg entering
the manoeuvre. I assume it can be, as it is a turn around and therefore an
altitude adjusting manoeuvre?? As long as the rolls are centred on that leg
it should be correct-no?
  Just need to clarify, that's all.

  My panel shop neighbour did not look pleased as we both left for work this
morning-he looked very concerned. I guess he knew the morning rush hour and
slippery roads would result in somewhat additional income for him ! I would
have expected a broad smile from him instead!!!

    Washing the car....that is what peeves me..I cant keep it clean. I go to
the field and its a mess, dust everywhere. Its especially problematic since
I'm flying every morning now. I dream about the sorts of fields some of you
chaps have in the US, paved runways or lush green strips etc etc.

    Terry...the smash repair business is a lucrative one in this country. My
neighbour has a panel shop-he is doing alright thank you very much-even
without hail or rain!
    Come to think of it, I think I'm the pauper in my street-I'm the only
one that works wages!!!

    Thunderstorm predicted this afternoon-keeping fingers crossed!!

      We are at 116 days without any moisture. Not even a little dew on the
pumpkin in the morning.

      Today was 80degs with winds about 5-10mph.

        Terry,
        No hail anywhere that I am aware of. To be honest...I wouldn't mind
a bit of wet weather again, I think 6 weeks ago was the last time I
witnessed any wet stuff. The flying field is all dust and dirt and
temperatures are only just becoming bearable.

              School was closed here in Farragut, Knox county schools today
also. I think the few flurries we had over the weekend and the TV shots of
the northeast being buried caused a "sympathy shutdown" of Knox county
schools. :)

somewhere in the county so they delayed school opening two hours...

                              What ever happened to the "obvious to one
skilled in the art" clause?
                              Maybe what is patented is the arrangement of
servo-box, or extension arm ... in any case, this falls under the heading of
re-patenting the wheel.
                              Granted, on a 3-D only setup, I'd hook up to
the servo this way!

                                Never have seen it before, but I guess the
main question I have concerns the potential for loss of effective torque
transmitted to the control surface.  I see that they claim it's better due
to no losses.  That would be true in the sense that you don't lose that
little bit in the linkage friction etc., but if you only want, say, 25
degrees of surface throw each direction, it would appear that you would have
to limit the servo travel to 25 degrees as well.  If that's true, then you
have less mechanical advantage for a given degree of movement for the
surface, since you would normally have a servo traveling about doub! le that
distance.  The control surface speed would be quicker, assuming the load is
handled without any blowback or slowdown of movement due to the effectively
lower torque transmitted while moving.  Maybe I'm not seeing it right, but
it looks like it might not be such a good thing to use, unless you were alr!
eady planning on having something close to a 1:1 correspondence of degrees
of servo arm movement to degrees of surface travel.
