Thank you for the kind words, and you will see that Jack is a great guy to deal with, knows what he is talking about either in airplanes or engines,

Lots of experience.

Well its been fun but I think I will not continue contributing here. I had another thread about boost tabs, and there simply too many people like to disrupt, when people do not understand what you are doing they beleive it can't be good.

I received private messages from people harrassing me , hate messages because of the boost tabs,

I have asked the moderators to step in a few times to no avail. So this is not worth it to me.

I appreciate the real modellers wanting to discuss this as you have but its just not worth the aggravation from the others.

I will repeat this message to my other threads

Roger, thats sad to hear. Have enjoyed seeing and reading about different things you have done and talked about over time even though I wondered about some of it myself from not understanding but hey, isnt that how things come about from people developing and testing things ? Lost of people years ago didnt believe in the Wright Brothers and laughed and talked about them, look at where things are now. What if all of them would have given up years ago because people didnt understand or believe in what they were doing ?

Hope you stay around.

Thanks, obviously you are one of the good guys

Roger, just because I dont understand or dont believe in what someone elses ideas are or what they are doing gives me no right to critisize them. There have been many times that because of peoples innovative ideas that discussion can take place and something good come of it from what someone thought that something was totally stupid and not a doable thing at all, people have to be proven wrong sometimes.

Roger, I have followed a couple of your threads hoping to learn something and I along with others were just trying to get a better understanding of the benefits of trying alternative methods versus the normal thinking. With such a radical approach with multi-thousand dollar airplanes I think guys were just wanting to see what kind of performance they should expect with using the boost tabs. My personal (uneducated) opinion that that they should work with general aerobatics but I am finding it hard to believe that they will work when there is less airflow over the surfaces like in a hover or other low speed maneuvers. So instead of people going out and risking a $5000 toy airplane they just wanted some reassurance other than some guy saying "Trust Me". That is where the requests for videos came from. There are some 'haters' in every group but I do believe that there are a lot of people that are interested in the setup even if they wouldn't do it to one of their airplanes.

I understand what you are saying, but the fact of the matter is simple, why didn't you guys step in when it was time? Here I am trying to help out the best I could but those that really wanted to see this thread shut down , didn't allow me to do this properly.
As for boost tabs, I started this by request from one of the moderators, it was not a thread to either use them or not but rather to help people understand more, and guess what people just came back with those stupid negative things saying don't use them, well the thread was not about that, you guys should step in when something like this happens.

To your question, boost tabs in my thread were not aimed at 3D , but the fact of the matter they would still work in the 3D format at full deflection. Air is air from the prop blast.

I have poven this to myself with my Yak with no rudder servo except the tiny boost tab servo. and I had perfect tail wheel control on the ground taxiing with prop blast alone.

Anyway enough of boost tabs, I will continue doing what I do best and let these guys stew in there own juices of negativeness, which is obvious to me they have never built airplane except an arf, and even more so, have no clue on aerodynamics..

People were asking all over the place for you to show how well they work so that they can better understand the benefits and effectiveness of them. That is why the thread didn't shut down sooner. You, yourself was saying that you wanted to help people to understand them.

It would be kinda like someone in drag racing saying that they can run 10's in a stock civic then then telling people to trust that it is possible.
