<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi Jason,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I'm venturing, or maybe I should say, wading into electric
this year. You mentioned the brake eating gears. I'm sure you meant the
conventional brake that flat out stops the prop. What's your thought on the
Hacker f3a brake that comes with the competition version of the speed control?
We haven't seen or heard much of anything about this motor or the
controller since the Worlds.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=910512601-18022006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>Hasn't this
debate been started/finished several times before? I know one thing, we're on
our second glow set-up in 2 weekends... # of flights- 0. If this set-up
doesn't work, it's electric time.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=910512601-18022006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>And just
remember, electric still isn't for everyone. You have to want to do it. There
are small things that we've learned along the way (leaving the brake on is
only for F5B other wise it eats gears) as is with all new technology. I've
been to the field with pilots that don't ask me anything about their set-up,
and it has been way "different" from what works. But I go and offer the
help to them and they have always enjoyed the results of the "new" set-up. I
didn't do this alone my first time. My deal to fly electrics at the Worlds
in 2003 was simple: I'll fly electric, but Sean (Hacker USA) had to
go to Poland with me. I had no clue what I was doing, and I was asking
questions whenever anything came up or new happened. Now I know enough to get
myself in trouble, but since I stay with what works, that hasn't
happened...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=910512601-18022006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>Everyone
has different experiences with the same products. I'm going through it right
now and it's not fun, but it happens. Fix it, or change it and move on.
That's my philosophy.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
