don’t know – maybe 15 or 20 K-Factor articles, some time on the judging
committee and as D7 and D3 AVP positions. I happen to like it when
people share some experienced based information, instead of the wealth of

<P class=MsoAutoSig><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">After the
Nationals this summer I switched back from E to glow and now running the
YS 160. This motor has been really fun to run, but I have sent one
back due to a dragging on the back-plate. This was repaired and runs
like a thoroughbred now. There is almost no drip of any kind on this
system until the exhaust point of the stinger (using Hatori 821/822
combination from Central….)<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoAutoSig><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I hope you have a
good E-experience. There was not a single E-component in the
powertrain I used that did not outright fail after just a few flights,
fail out of the package, or have seriously degraded performance after a
short number of runs. Further, while expecting “consistent”
performance, I found more variables taking place with the E setup than on
glow. Looking back, my OS 140 setup was more “consistent” day to day
than my E-period. The E stuff is critical on monitoring battery
consumption, amps, etc… This pertains to the equipment I
used. I realized that my comfort running glow and dealing with the
full realm of potential problems is easier for me to handle than learning
an entirely new problem solving set for E, then having duplicate equipment
to deal with those potential problems.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoAutoSig><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">For me – (advice
just worth what your paying for it), the E stuff takes way more time &
money to “care-and-feed” than my glow setup, and this far out weighs any
potential E-Advantage. I do not think you get a “better flying
plane” with E, you just get to play with bigger prop diameters. If
there is a point benefit to flying E, I think that the planes are so close
that if were to blink or sneeze during the flight one would overtake the
other. I think the E stuff is a bit more one dimensional
and you should anticipate your weather conditions a bit more than with
glow (… the haul-butt option always seems to be present with the glow
setup if you want it). You need to develop a ton of insight into
your E setup as to avoid ruining it quickly. I think that for 97.5%
of us pattern fliers, we are far better served just by getting more flying
time in. For me it is FAR EASIER to take a gallon of fuel out and
fly. When I get home the plane goes on the shelf until next week –
no need to sit and watch batteries charging so I can put out a potential
fire.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

Andy Pollitt for<BR>>> nose rings, Home Depot, Karl Mueller for
headers, Boca<BR>>> Bearings, Dave Lockhart for repitched props, Bob
Pasterello<BR>>> for coupler material, Morgan fuel, and a couple of
others in<BR>>> passing. Why did I mention them? Because that would
have<BR>>> been the first email I got, asking, "where do you buy
this<BR>>> stuff?". Some of these guys are so small that advertising
a<BR>>> lot doesn't make sense for them. Very few, if any, of
the<BR>>> specialized parts may be available at your particular
local<BR>>> hobby shop (LHS), and some vendors don't sell thru LHS.
I<BR>>> support my LHS, but giving sources lets people look at
what<BR>>> they are buying, even if they get it thru the LHS. I
also<BR>>> support K Factor vendors, as my bills from Central and
Budd<BR>>> prove. And sometimes I just don't feel like driving
20<BR>>> minutes to my LHS for something they don't stock and
would<BR>>> special order, that I can order online and have
delivered to<BR>>> my door in a couple of
days.<BR>>><BR>>> Frankly, I think Ihncheol did the right
thing. He let people<BR>>> know of a supply for a scare product in
high demand. He could<BR>>> have told his buddies about it, and have
one of them post it,<BR>>> and no one would (or could)have said a
thing. It isn't like<BR>>> he is on here all the time pushing his
products.<BR>>><BR>>> The writer of the letter did not have
the courtesy to copy me<BR>>> on the letter. Derek, if you read
this, please send me a copy<BR>>> when you get it. Frankly, if the
whole thing wasn't so<BR>>> ridiculous, I'd think twice about
writing another article for<BR>>> the K
Factor.<BR>>><BR>>> Incidently, I am not sponsored by any of
the companies I<BR>>> mentioned in my article or here. I do write
for RC Report on<BR>>> occasion. Oops, I just mentioned a
non-advertisor! Shame on<BR>>> me...<BR>>><BR>>> Jon
