Flying Giants Opens up the world of IMAC to our much larger international audience this week with the release of our exclusive multi language IMAC Forums. As many of you know the recent election of officers for the IMAC Board Of Directors has delivered us with a board who you can only say are anxious to get the sport into a larger global community. Under the guidance of the new board we at Flying Giants are just bursting at the seams to help make IMAC the sport and fun competition many have envisaged or dreamed about for the past few years.
So to kick off the 2009 season we have open up the new multi language forums. This new forum can be found at http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/fg283/ and your welcome to come join the party immediately. What is the goal of this? Well one is many of our fellow modelers cannot or do not write in English, just as many of us dont write in Portuguese or Spanish. But why are we holding out the ability to cross communicate just because of a tiny language barrier. Today's forum tools allow us to roughly translate from one language to another, but better yet we have a lot of bilingual and multi lingual members on the site who can help out. Today we have several very keen individuals willing to help out in assuring that these threads don't turn into political or bashing threads as does happen if things are not managed here. The forums we have in mind need not just be IMAC releated. If your having difficulties setting up a plane or wanting information on local clubs etc then this is the place to come and ask for help. As I said regardless of the language we will assure you that help will come even if it takes someone the time to translate your questions so the entire community can help. Ladies and Gents, the RC hobby and in particular the IMAC community has given me such a wealth of new friends and knowledge that I feel it is only right to try and share that and give something back to those in need of help or advice. I hope we at Flying Giants can make that happen and be the place you call home for your RC and IMAC requirements. A warm welcome to you all. Allan J Main Kiwi --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nesta semana, o FlyingGiants abre o mundo do IMAC para o nosso grande público internacional com o lançamento do nosso exclusivo Fórum IMAC em várias línguas. Como muitos de vocês sabem a recente eleição, para os membros diretores do IMAC, elegeu um grupo que está nada menos do que ansioso para tornar esse esporte uma grande comunidade global. Sob a liderança da nova diretoria, nós do FlyingGiants estamos nos esforçando muito para tornar o IMAC um esporte divertido e competitivo como muitos têm vislumbrado e sonhado nos últimos anos. Assim, para iniciar a temporada 2009, nós abrimos novos fóruns em várias línguas. Esse novo fórum pode ser encontrado no link: http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/fg283/ e você está convidado para entrar nessa festa já! E qual é o objetivo disso? Bom, primeiro porque muitos de nossos companheiros aeromodelistas não escrevem em inglês, assim como muitos de nós não escrevemos em português ou espanhol. Mas por que estamos impedidos de nos comunicar apenas por essa pequena barreira de linguagem? Hoje em dia, as ferramentas do fórum nos permitem traduzir de uma língua para outra, mas melhor ainda nós temos membros que têm conhecimento em várias línguas e podem nos ajudar. Hoje nós temos uma série de pessoas que desejam ajudar para que tópicos não caiam em politicagens ou baixarias, como poderia acontecer se nós não moderássemos a comunidade. Os fóruns que planejamos não precisam necessariamente versar apenas sobre o IMAC. Se você tem dificuldades em ajustar seu avião, deseja mais informações sobre clubes em sua localidade, etc então esse é o lugar para você pedir ajuda. Como eu disse, independentemente de língua, nós garantimos que sua ajuda virá, tão logo alguém tenha tempo de traduzir suas perguntas para que toda comunidade possa ajudar. Senhoras e senhores, o RC e particularmente o IMAC me deu tantos novos amigos e conhecimento que eu sinto que é meu dever tentar compartilhar e ajudar aqueles que precisão de ajuda ou conselhos. Eu espero que nós do FlyingGiants façamos com que isso aconteça e que aqui seja o lugar que você chame de a casa do RC e do IMAC. Será um prazer auxiliá-lo em português (I Will be glad to help you in portuguese) : Bruno Macedo FG user : BrunoMacedo --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Esta semana, Flying Giants extiende el mundo de IMAC hacia la comunidad Internacional con el lanzamiento de los foros exclusivos en multiples idiomas. Como muchos de ustedes saben con la reciente eleccion de nuevos directivos de IMAC, se abren nuevos rumbos, ya que este grupo esta ansioso de abrir este grupo a la comunidad Internacional. Bajo la guia de este grupo de directivos de IMAC, Flying Giants contribuye tambien a que IMAC sea lo que muchos han anhelado por mucho tiempo. Asi, para iniciar la temporada del 2009, hemos abierto los foros en multiples idiomas. Estos nuevos foros podran ser ubicados en la siguiente direccion http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/fg283/ y estan todos invitados a participar en estos a partir de la fecha. Cual es el objetivo de esto? Bueno, algunos de nuestros colegas no hablan o escriben el Ingles, igual que muchos tampoco pueden entender el Espanol o el Portugues; pero porque no comunicarnos entre todos. Las herramientas de hoy en el foro nos permitiran traducir de un idioma al otro, pero adicionalmente, tenemos en el grupo muchos miembros que hablan varios idiomas y estan dispuestos a ayudar. Algunos de estos individuos estan dispuestos a supervisar y garantizar que este medio no se convierta en un medio de conflictos politicos o de tipo agresivo. Los foros que tenemos planeados no tienen que ser solamente relacionados a IMAC. Si usted esta teniendo dificultades con los ajustes en su avion o buscando informacion de clubes locales, etc, entonces este es el lugar en donde buscar por ayuda. Como se dijo antes, no importando el idioma, le aseguraremos que la ayuda estara alli, asi tengamos que traducir su inquietud, para que asi la comunidad entera pueda participar. Nuestro pasatiempo de Radio Control y en particular IMAC me han ofrecido a mi una gran cantidad de nuevos amigos y de conocimiento y creo que es correcto ensayar y compartir con aquellos que nesecitan ayuda o asesoria. Espero que aqui en Flying Giants podamos hacerlo realidad y asegurar que este sea el sitio que ustedes llamen “”Hogar” para todas sus necesidades de RC o de IMAC Carlos Paez Last edited by SleepyC; 11-12-2008 at 04:35 PM. |

Great idea guys. Personally I'm a born and raised Portuguese man living in Colorado and I love this here. I've helped some good friends in Portugal posting questions here at FG and the answers are great. People do really share their experiences and ideas. I'll offer my help in Portuguese and English translations as well.
Bruno, where are you from? I used to fly at ACCV in Paramos near Espinho

Nice Antonio...I saw in your Avatar that you are from Portugal.
I just talked to Kiwi, we first tough in the Latin America when opened up this forum but Portugal and Spain have lots of good pilots who can seriously fly IMAC and can post here on their mother tongues. You are all welcome to join the party ! Bruno

Man, that´s an excelent idea. My friend BrunoMacedo are very responsable and good pilot in Brazil. When I saw the homepage of flyinggiants today, what a good surprise, this is the best notice to our pilots in Brazil to change ideas with other pilots around the world, many pilots don´t speak and understand english. I like so much, and enjoy the Idea.
Os Brasileiros agradecem a iniciativa de unir todos os pilotos Americanos e Latinos, espero e com certeza teremos bons frutos dessa idéia. For that mans how don't know BrunoMacedo, I invite to visit my website that I created in portuguese. In the website, Bruno have a space and there he talk about aerobatics, judges, setups, etc... The url is www.hangar3d.com Thank you FlyingGiants Fábio Machado |

Awesome idea guys, we here are trying to do that too, we just finished to translate some of the files.
For the guys who really want to do some IMAC, we opened a special froum on our Web-Site so they will be able to see and learn that magnificent flying. We are having our first gathering on the 29th, its to teach and learn the basics, Aresti, how to fly etc... Well we know that there is allot to learn from you guys all around the world. Good luck to us all. PAM crew.
