you all are discussing the Lous Aeromaster Bipe... I failed to mention... I think he told me the one I described was a ? Aeromaster ...I did see a pic of it and it was a low wing plane. hope this helps clarify..

RE: Flying Models Dec/Jan 1966 question!
now that we've mentioned the Aeromaster.. I was told by an OT I got to meet this last weekend that he HAS the first original Aeromaster..He told me some history on it...and how he came about it. Said it was one of the best flying planes he had flown.. He was the same one that had an old original (off RCM plans) Rumplestadt bipe...and brought it there to show me .. I got pics but have to get a cord to get them off my phone. one of these days , maybe in the winter I'll get by to snap a pic of the Aeromaster This was at the Volunteer Aeromdeler field in Knoxville Tn..

RE: Rumplestadt
[quote]ORIGINAL: squeakalong Mike, a question if I may: you mention you can take your file offering and enlarge it via ''paint''. Do you mean Paintshop? And how do you go about doing this, and what do I need to do so it will print in tile format? (I hate it when I have to ask ''dumb...I'm computer challenged'' questions [8|]...) Soft landings. Joe [/quote] Don;t feel like the "lone Ranger"... I know a pretty good amount (by school of hard knocks-self taught) about computers...and still ask those questions..(it never ends) 'been a while since I played with printing plans..and memory sortof fades now... but here is how I remember it you can open an adobe file and (best i remember) either right click it and selct all and copy or use the edit tab and select all and copy.. this copies it to the clipboard....ever how its done ...all you need is get it copied to the clipboard then open the app "paint" under accessories under programs from the start menu. right click and "paste" or hit edit tab and then paste. you can then just print it... I think tile print is the default way of printing a large file.. it will show you have many pages to print then you have to intelligently cut off the right excess of all paper( not printed area) and then cut of excess of bottom (same)...and use a office glue stick to glue then all together. (use a straightedge to keep all horizontal lines straight and vertical lines vertical...and after printing a few plans you will become an expert at it)...its easy... then try saving several copies and use the paints image streatch or skew feature to expand to say 150% (same for stretch and skew) or ever use 50% for a half size plan.. I suggest lowest resolution as the print quality as your just needing lines...and buy an extra black prin cartridge and a pack of paper...you'll probably need it. you can choose a greyscale only image only in print and that seems to make it use the black cartridge more than the color... I just refill most of my cartridges myself but rapidfill (a cartridge refill storefront here) is about as cheap as refilling supplies....so I but ther too. maybe a real computer geek can help out here if I'm wrong..

RE: Rumplestadt
Lol...couple of things... I have been designing again....OMG! As I described earlier...Now I have an almost finished ...I guess "didley" version (maybe this is what Glenn I believe meant) Update: This I found, was a comment from Bob on another forum...my apology of what i would call a "caracature"<sp?> of the Rumplestadt bipe...sort of a profile fuse with quickly removable nose which includes the motor, esc,receiver, battery, two servos and landing gear....WILL take off short grass..(you'll never believe what is used for tires...lol) Intention is for use in very,very slow combat, cheap, manueverable, survivable by virtue of the entire last half of fuse, wings, tailfeathers are replacable as one complete unit in 2 minutes and that part buildable in one hour .... whole plane including charger excluding transmitter is less than $90 with the replacable aft (the part that gets sawed/clobbered/chewed up-tell me that don't happen and I'll tell you you've never flown combat!) costing about $3-$5 in Depron (so ya can afford to build many spares while using spray bombs and markers to doll em up...or ger fancy with an airbrush) This could be the airplane everyone could fly in combat....and there's more...the forsection as described earlier..(that contains all the flying parts less flying surfaces) is also interchangable with WWII warbird profile scenerios...and a third and forth respectively would be planes like the Yak or a high wing trainer. etc with the mid-low wingers having ailerons built into the wings and just plug up.... Pics forthcoming... this is a project born from this dear old Rumplestadt design Now here ist the treat.. I found a site with great inexpensive pilots for this plane...whatever scale you need...and I also ran across a site for the machine guns...but lost it...maybe I'll run across it again...the guns were quite inexpensive for the detail. I >may< have been on a site like Dubro or Williams Bros ...I'll post it if I can find it if someone doesn't beat me to it pilots http://www.easybuiltmodels.com/spare.htm

RE: Rumplestadt
Hi Glenn.. Got it! and much, much thanks... the shipping phase took a lick and the tube was bent nearly double...which wrinkled the plan but is easily salvagable. I should be in the city the copy shop is around the first of the week...and I'll get it scanned. I can clean up everything in photoshop....but may have to make two trips to get the final copy converted to adobe so I can post it... Took the combat foamie to an electric fly-in in Cookeville Tn over the weekend and it was a hit!..even in very windy conditions. Everyone loved it and wanted one....and so extremely affordable. Took it that evening to the VAM club and everyone loved it and stated it flew so well. (I was doing slow lazy eights directly over the grass runway in about 20-30 feet length at approx chest altitude) the plane wouldn't stall or do any snap tendacy.It was extremely stable and predictable. The "full width" fuse 3/4 size was ready to maiden, but I did not want to decrease its survival percentages due to the higher winds...so that will come later. If I had a fullsize Rumplestadt (.15 size), I too would be very hard to get along with if anyone got near it in the air...and will probably be the same with the 3/4 version.... The Rumplestadt is not "relegated" to battle, but instead will be the "cute" flagship of a whole series of combat (as well as other) disposable rc planes. Although I own the url (not hosted yet) will soon have the website up as the details of manufacture are worked out.

RE: Rumplestadt
OMG.... One of the combat guys at the local club that flies SSC (slow survivable combat) got me going... here is the text I wrote him... Looks like I will have to draw this up (real simple) and post this for some more fun with this Rumplestadt..Yippeee! quoted- In 30 minutes , I designed a flat foam depron rumplestad bipe with profile pilots and machine gun. What is unique is the (power pak)= landing gear ($1.50,)prop (.80) motor,($6.95), battery($7) esc($9) receiver ($15) and 2 servos ($3 each) all mount in a sandwich of 1/16 or 1/32 ply, 3 MM depron, and 1/16 or 1/32 ply and is a separate part that can be detached from the 3 mm depron fuselage/wing/tail assembly with 4 small bolts or pins and can be changed to a new fuse wing assembly in about 2 minutes with bolts or in seconds with some sort of pin latch. What is super nice is that to go to a monoplane warbird, shockflyer, highwing mono trainer or Yak style fuse takes less than a minute..... so one would only need to build one power pak and say a half dozen planes that cost less than $2 each and would build from sheet plans in less than 5 minutes each using low temp hot glue.. What more could park flyer combat ask for??? I found a charger for about $20 that does great on lipos and one would need maybe 3-4 batteries at $7 each to last for several rounds....unless you just wante to take a chance and charge them faster at the field.. The whole rig minus transmitter costs less than the motor on the SSC... and is damage-disposable. I even designed in a landing gear/wheels that will take off short grass..;-)

RE: Rumplestadt
Well.... I >thought< I had a scanned pdf of the 4 page RCM article....but I see I had only scanned the plans...and cleaned them up...BUT....I did find the 4 pages RCM sent me so Hopefully tomorrow I can scan then and upload them to the Adobe site like I did the plans and post the link to them.That will take up the remainder of the 5 free adobe conversions and I will not have any left for the wing. Maybe I had better go to the copy shop and have them converted to adobe there...and not use up the free conversions. I >may< be able to clean them up enough to just upload them to photobucket (lower resolution)and put the page here as an attachment(which makes more sense)... I'll "get it done" one way or another... I'd love to start seeing some pics as their built and flown.The article is pretty thorough and has some history in it....you'll get a good laugh reading it. I am uploading the only pic I was able to find on the internet..and it is a good one for your wall! Also I uploaded the text file record I had of when the actual RCM article ran and what file it was. The 2001 RCM plans simply skipped the plan 466 but 465 and 467 were in it. I was extremely lucky I found it in a Google search and Google had the plan #....but that doesn't even come up now. Was lucky I remembered how the word Rumplestadt was spelled which was only reason I found it when I did.

RE: Rumplestadt
Hi Buzzardbait My avitar (to the left) it a photoshopped picture of the only image I was able to find of the Rumplestadt on the internet. I don't think it is still coming up in searches anymore though. I personally worked with someone at RCM to obtain the only thing they still had on the Rumplesatdt. ...which was a magazine reprint which included the fuselage plans (the plane was originally designed to use the Carl Golberg Ranger 42 foam wings to make building easy). The microfische they used to print the fullsize plans from was destroyed for some reason and they do not plan to bring the plane back nor offer any plans/reprints from it...which is sad...but we can ressurect it...and make variations of that great loveable Bipe. There is actually two vertical tail outlines and decal schemes as well (plane was used in early WWI combat events at clubs in the 70's) I was able to scan and clean up the small plans and upload them as a PDF file. Glen has copied the original wings dimensions and drew them and is sending them to me from Australia and I will get them scanned and also upload them so everyone can use them. Will try to find the RCM reprint an upload it as well.

Rumplestadt Bipe
Hi, I posted a few pics of this cute , loveable bipe a while back and I started a resized 3/4 version of it for electric. This Bipes history is it was published in RCM way back in the early 70's. The plane used a .15 to .25 engine and used the famous Ranger 42 foam wing cores by Carl Goldberg....which saved building two wings. A friend in the neighborhood built one but used an RCM trainer wing (Clark Y)with barn door ailerons cut in and sheeted the wings with balsa. This resulted in one very stable, cute and very manuverable little bipe. I painted the pilots for him, hand cut goggle lenses and mad ethe machine gun and painted it. I wish I had a picture! I eventually traded into it years later...and lost it in a mini storage operator scam. RCM is not able to bring the plan back so I have cleaned it up and created a PDF of it and placed it on adobe to share. link below All you need to do is download it, right click on image, copy to clipboard and open a MS Paint app . Paste it into paint and print it as a tile version. Cut off the top and left excess tabs and paste them all together (I use a gluestick with purple dye that turns clear when dry). You can rescale (percentage) like I have an create a 3/4 or even double size verison of the same plan. Mine is 3/4 and I will use electric. Hopefully I can soon get back to finishing... I am including pics I had posted earlier in another thread https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=23107520-5dad-4c5e-8d25-d9110f6a380d

FoamCoare Board VS Depron or CellFoam
Being self crowned "King of Chincey" , I have experimented with a lot of different new materials that pretty much replace the use of Balsa and save money (don't take me wrong, Balsa still has a lot of uses trumped). What I have found is pretty serious in building and can bite you in the b*tt as it did me..so here goes I "discovered" this cool new material called foamcore that everyone seemed to be building with ...bought typically at Hobby Lobby craft stores (not the RC Hobby (dash) Lobby)). By itself (unpeeled) it has two slick thick paper faces that are sort of heavy for our "normal" use (its pretty stiff and strong unpeeled, and can be used that way fine and is not as strong but lighter than lightply). What is not known is if you buy this stuff and peel it (many tricks to do this and other threads describe how), it ends up looking and working sort of like Depron, only a little softer. Here's the problem. I thought WOW, I'll build several planes of this stuff and laminate the edges of the tail surfaces with a 1/16" brich dowel (soaked) or a 1/8" balsa strip to give it some integrity and stiffness. Well that worked...BUT (doncha just love it)...on [B]every one of them[/B]...(5 in all) about a week later the surfaces began to look like tulip petals....YUK...I mean YIKES!! Here we have several models built and ready for finish (I prefer acrylic ) and the tail surfaces are all warped horribly....not even iron on covering could get the warps out....nor could a heat iron or heat gun. At first I thought it may have been the disimilarity of the shrink of hardwood or balsa to the foam core... but then I tried the same on Depron and CellFoam available at RCFOAM. No problem...never a warp...no matter what the humidity or time left unpainted/unsealed. So... Never use FoamCore for anything you would add stiffening to (ie laminating edges, stiffening carbon fiber strips, balsa reinforcement strips) It's a good material to use "as is" with its facing as this actually controls the shrink of the foam material...but don't try to use it after spending a lot of time stripping it of those faces. I posted some pics of this "phenomenon" on other forums on a couple of build projects that got seriously delayed trying to solve this mystery. My advice...don't waste time with foamcore...just buy depron or *cellfoam (*which is just as cheap as foamcore) and same all the grief of stripping it and discovering this anomaly later. I found cellfoam here to sample [url]http://rcfoam.com/cart.php?target=category&category_id=107[/url]

Another question for those in the know... will any of these receivers (GWS 4 ch, Corona sysnth, Corona crystal) work on 2 cells or is there enough power on one for 3 micro servos.....or will they work at all on 1s and 2 s?
