Doesn't counter balanced control surfaces work in much the same way as a boost tab ? It is on the other side of the hinge line and the airstream is pushing on it assisting the servo in much the same way ? Or am I too far gone to understand ? I guess my question really is why do boost tabs work so much better ?

Hi Zoomer hope this works

jack strickland · 10-20-2008, 10:29 PM

Sorry again this was my 1st try and the tab was too small-0- will try again

I just reduce the pool pump running time by 3 hours - and brace for some crazier driving on the roads.

I don't really have an ETA but with our winter coming fast, I have to say spring since we can't fly in winter, or at least I don't want to fly in winter

McFueler · 10-27-2008, 12:37 PM

You can always load it up and drive south, we can find a warm place to fly somewhere down this way !

forgues research · 10-29-2008, 09:46 PM
