Thank God It s Flyday! President s Message It seems the winds of change are blowing with regard to ORCC. I am sure most of you know but for those who don t, we have unfortunately had to close our Greenway flying site which is a grave disappointment to me as well I m sure all of you. They say that when one door closes, another opens and we will of course move forward and we will be successful in finding another location more suited to our needs. With assistance from all members this could happen sooner than later. There are some questions that have come forward regarding our approach to the situation and we will in the near future be putting forward a survey to see what direction you as members would like to see the club take and it is important that all members put forth your opinions with regard to this. For those who haven t visited our new website as yet or otherwise been informed, our President, Mike Toner has stepped down as ORCC President. On behalf of all the members I want to thank Mike for all his work and dedication to ORCC. Mike will remain on the Executive and assume the role of Past President. Being Vice President, I have assumed the position of President and I welcome any input or suggestions any of our members may have. I will be looking for one of our members to step forward and assume the role of Field Manager at Drummond Field and I will also be seeking a new Vice President. There are several events in the near future at our club as well as in our region and I encourage all our members to get out and enjoy some of these events, especially our up and coming MAAC Zone Fun Fly being held at the Smith Falls Airport on July 16 th & 17 th. There is everything from scale WW1 biplanes to large scale sport planes and very impressive turbine powered jets and Heli s. There is also our Warbird Event at Drummond Field on July 23rd. For those who haven t attended one of these events as yet, it s an excellent way to get out and meet members from the other clubs in our area as well as see some excellent aircraft that are sure to be participating. Have a safe and enjoyable summer and I hope to see you at the field. December 6- ORCC Meeting 16- ORCC Christmas Party 27- ORCC Meeting Paul Bradbeer President 1
2 GENERAL ENQUIRIES BOARD OF DIRECTORS President Paul Bradbeer Past President Mike Toner Vice President Vacant Secretary Adrian Poplawski Treasurer Dick Mills Memberships Dieter Rudat Chief Flying Instructor Brent Norman Check it out.orcc has a new Website! As mentioned in last month s newsletter, We are continuing to design and update it and we need your help in doing so. This website is for all members to share their experiences and get details about the club. Please feel free to contact Shahram Shahram.Ghorashi@ocdsb.ca with any ideas you may have or to post your pictures, videos and any articles or announcements you may have to share. Types of Airplanes Practically every full-size airplane that s ever graced the skies has also been reproduced as an R/C model. That s one of the hobby s biggest draws. Though most of us will never actually pilot an Air Force Thunderbird or Blue Angel, we CAN fly an R/C model that looks exactly like one! Of course, real jet pilots go through a tremendous amount of training before they re qualified to handle such a powerful machine. Again, there s a parallel in the R/C world. Some models are just too demanding for beginners to fly successfully. When you go shopping and see the airplane offerings or visit your local airfield, you ll see R/C models that fit into all of the following groups. Stick with the hobby and eventually, you ll be able to take your pick from them all and it ll be some other newcomer whose jaw drops when YOU take off! Trainers 3D Flying Dave Rees 3d@ottawarcclub.ca Drummond Field Manager Paul Bradbeer drummondfield@ottawarcclub.ca Electric Alan Nixon electric@ottawarcclub.ca Indoor Flight Paul Penna indoor@ottawarcclub.ca Sailplanes Brian Buchanan salplanes@ottawarcclubc.ca Hobbic NexSTAR 46 Select RTF R/C Trainers, with their high wing mounting and flat-bottom airfoils, are specifically designed for first-time modelers. They fly slowly, giving you extra time to think and react. If you momentarily lose control, you can simply release the transmitter sticks, your trainer will return to straight, level flight. Trainers also have a very slow stall speed, which means that their wings can generate enough lift to stay aloft even when just creeping along. Kit versions deliberately avoid complex building techniques, and many trainers are available in prebuilt form (ARF). Giant Scale Kevin Denton Giantscale@ottawarcclub.ca
3 Helicopters John McDougall Bipes (Biplanes) Workshops Tom Hastie Winter Fun Fly Shahram Ghorashi Warbird Interest Group Calvin Goble Fall Fun Fly Shahram Ghorashi TopCap Editor Ramona Bradbeer Great Planes Reactor Bipe GP/EP Sport 3D ARF A staple of aerobatic airshows, two-winged biplanes never fail to win over an audience. R/C versions deliver the same barnstorming performance, making them a favourite of experienced hobbyists who are in the mood for something different. The lure of the bipe is something that most sport fliers experience at least once. Building an extra wing is a small price to pay for the pleasure of flying a small piece of aviation history. Indestructibles Web Administrator Shahram Ghorashi Shahram.Ghorashi@ocdsb.ca Thoughts for the Day He who hesitates is probably right. If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame. Great Planes Yak 55 3D FlightFlex EP ARF If there s an R/C equivalent to Superman, Man of Steel, this is it...not so much a type of plane as a type of construction. While many R/C models are built of wood or foam, indestructibles are made of tougher stuff. Ultra-durable FlightFlex planes, for example, have an airframe and wing made of built-up EPP foam that allow the plane to keep flying, even after many crashes! They re easy to assemble and great for practicing your aerobatic skills. Scale A penny saved is a government oversight. Birds of a feather flock together....and then shit on you. Top Flite P-51D Mustang Gold Edition Kit Scale models recreate full-size aircraft. Some are intended only to look reasonably close to the real thing. Deviations are made to keep assembly and performance within the abilities of a particular skill level. Then again, there are also scale kits created expressly for very serious craftsmen. The reward, after plenty of painstaking effort, is a model that s nearly a photo-perfect reproduction of the real plane. Scale kits are not for first-timers, but the Great Planes Cap 232 shown here can be an exciting next step after you ve built and mastered a trainer. 3
4 For Laughs... Warbirds What MEN say compared to what they are really thinking: "What's wrong?" I really don't see why you are making such a big deal out of this! Top Flite AT-6 Texan 60 ARF w/retracts A sub-category of Scale Models, R/C warbirds bring dogfight excitement directly to your local flying field! Some of aviation s greatest advances came during war years and some of the most colourful plane nicknames, too (such as Whispering Death and Butcher Bird ). Through R/C warbirds, experienced modelers can join their love of history with their favourite hobby. Giant Scale "What's wrong?" What meaningless selfinflicted psychological trauma are you going through now! "What's wrong?" I guess sex tonight is really out of the question! "Yes, I like the way you cut your hair." $50 and it doesn't look that much different! P51D Mustang Giant Scale models, like the name suggests, combine lifelike detail with immense size imagine controlling a model whose wing spans as much as seven feet or more! As you'd expect, such aircraft are higher priced and demand a great deal of time, patience and skill they are not for the beginners. Sport Models "Can I call you sometime?" I'd eventually like to have sex with you! "Do you want to go to a movie?" I'd eventually like to have sex with you! Great Planes Cherokee GP/EP ARF Generally, Sport Models are any planes designed to perform aerobatic manoeuvres. Most have wings mounted at the middle or bottom of the fuselage, and symmetrical airfoils meaning that the top and bottom surfaces of the wing are curved to allow greater manoeuvrability, at the expense of the stability that first-time fliers require. Sport Trainers are available that combine characteristics of basic trainers (such as a wing mounted above the fuselage) with sport planes (such as a semisymmetrical airfoil). These make a good step up after you ve mastered your basic trainer. 4
5 "That's interesting, dear." Are you still talking?! FlatOuts "You know I could never love anyone else." I am used to the way you yell at me, and realize it could be worse.! "Can I get your coat?" I'd eventually like to have sex with you! Great Planes Cap 580 Matt Chapman FlatOuts 3D EP ARF FlatOuts are lightweight, fun aircraft for spur-of-the-moment flying and perfecting 3D aerobatics! They're quick-building, inexpensive and they can perform extreme manoeuvres both indoors and out. Unlike the tape and glue that flat foam planes from other makers use, FlatOuts have a complete line of innovative hardware that comes with every model. The 3mm thick foam is reinforced with carbon fibers rods for extra strength and to ensure straight-and-sure building resulting in planes that are flat out fabulous to fly! Park Flyers "May I have this dance?" I'd eventually like to have sex with you! "I'm going fishing". I'm going to drink myself dangerously stupid, and stand by a stream with a stick in my hand, while the fish swim! Great Planes Silhouette 3D EP ARF If you want to fly -- but without a lot of effort or special flying site requirements -- Park Flyers are the answer! They offer all the fun and excitement of larger R/C airplanes, but in a smaller size that has several advantages. They're very affordable. Kit assembly is quick and easy (some Park Flyers also come in ARF form and can be flight-ready in just hours). Because of their compact size and clean, quiet electric power, you can fly them almost anywhere: at a park, in a football field, or even in your own backyard.* How well do they fly? With recent advances in electric technology -- and the use of ultralight materials for construction -- Park Flyers perform like champions! *To ensure safe operation, always fly Park Flyers at a site at least five miles away from established radio-control flying parks. Sailplanes Tower Hobbies Vista EP Sailplane ARF R/C sailplanes ride on rising masses of warm air, called thermals. Their slow flying speed and stability makes them a good choice for first-time hobbyists. The challenge is learning to locate those invisible thermals and use them to your advantage. Some sailplanes are equipped with power pods (electric motors) for easy, powered launches. Others are launched by tossing them from a hill or slope... by using a slingshot-like device called a hi-start...or by towing them in a fashion similar to launching a kite. 5
6 What WOMEN say compared to what they are really thinking: "Do I look fat in this dress?" We haven't had a fight in a while! Drummond Field awaits you!!! "No, pizza's fine." Cheap bastard! "I don't know; what do you want to do?" I can't believe that he has nothing planned! "I'll be ready in a minute." I AM ready, I am just going to make you wait because I know you will! "Oh YES!!! Right there!" Well, near there; I just want to get this over with! ***2011 Membership Count so far 114*** 6
