God's speed Jim in your new beginning.
(quoted from the Qyet Flyer, John A. Williams, Editor)
INTRODUCTION This Web Site is for those persons that would
rather design their own r/c airplane, fabricate the
balsa parts and build something different than
opening a
box and following instructions. I only discuss
electric
powered airplanes mainly because that is what I enjoy
the most. The design and build that is covered here
results in a very light model that is essential for
good electric flight performance.
One of the many advantages to building
airplanes this way is the savings on your pocketbook.
The real thrill is when your creation flys and
performs as well as the better kit planes at the
field. There is nothing fancy about these web pages.
They
cover basic balsa and plywood construction
techniques.Even a newcomer into the RC airplane field
can get something out of the construction techniques.
In Memorium
Jim DeMartine's untimely passing, caused by Lukemia, was a shock to his flying
buddies and family alike. We, the Sarasota Silent Flyers, will sorely miss his
smiling face and giving ways. Nobody did as much for so many! Curt Leonard, who
ministered to Jim in his failing days, told his friends that Jim was prepared to
go to Heaven and that Jim said he was going to scout out a perfect electric flying
site and have the runways prepared by the time the rest of us got there. Typical of Jim!
