Re: Winding
Thanks, BJT! I've been out of the indoor community for a little while and just starting to get back into it when my old high school asked me to give them tips for Wright Stuff. Used to build some F1D, ornithopter, ministick, pennyplane, etc. Back when I was flying the Tan SS was nothing compared to ...

Re: Rubber
I've heard that recently the batches of Tan SS have gotten better. I bought some in 08 and the stuff is terrible. I've been looking and can't seem to find a graph of energy return compared to batch date. Does anybody know where I can find one? If not, does anybody know of some recent batches that ar...

I'll be there at the Div C Brookwood event. I'm an alumnus so I thought I'd help them judge. Should be fun.

Re: Designs and Kits
The climb, cruise, and descent phases are heavily dependent on the rubber you're using. It all comes down to the torque. The way that rubber holds torque is there is an initial high torque, which depletes rapidly (climb), a plateau which lasts quite a while (cruise), and a final slow depletion (desc...

Re: Challenging Math Problems (Or not)
well if order does not count in the set yes, there is only 1 combination. 9,8,7,6,5. however, if it does, there are 120 solutions. sorry should've been more clear about combinations vs permutations. if anybody would like to solve for the maximum number of permutations assuming the set can have a ran...

Re: Challenging Math Problems (Or not)
the number 9 came from the lowest possible maximum for the set to exist. The highest possible number of combinations occurs first when the set maximum is 25. I wrote a program that can solve it by brute forcing it...but brute forcing it in under 5 seconds. if you want, you can tell me the maximum nu...
