APRS TRacking today in Reg 12, So-Cal by
CindyB
Folks:
Many pilots have Spot tracking systems. There has been conversation
about the awkward access to pilot's flight tracks, antenna
sensitivity
to placement/orintation, drop outs in tracks.
If you would like to see a more mature system, with public display,
real time access, user selection of...

AR 4201 low volume on receiving side by
Alexander Swagemakers[_2_]
I have purchased a used Becker AR 4201 and installed it in my glider. Reception is fine. On transmission the signal volume is very low on the receiving side. Even though the voice is clear, it is hardly understandable because of the low volume. I tried making some changes to the configuration to no...

AR3201 Harness? by
noel.wade
Hi All,
I have an old Becker AR3201 that's working fine; but I managed to
slice a few of the wires in the harness while re-wiring my glider this
month (I decided it was time to get the rat's nest of PVC wire and old
tube-type fuses out of the cockpit). A blade-type fuse on the
battery, Anderson...

Yesterday we had a visit from Schempp Hirth, having the brand-new

A couple of pilots from my club had the occasion for a flight - first

Assembly is similar to the Duo Discus. The wings are significantly
lighter than...

Arcus leading the world champs by
waremark
Not a surprise that an Arcus is leading the 20m world gliding champs in Finland. I think all except four of the gliders in the 20m class are Arcus's (one of the non-Arcus's is the prototype ASG 32, which is also doing quite well, the others being Duo and DG 1000). Most impressive is that the Arcus...

We had the pleasure to take the Arcus on its maiden voyage in the US
this last weekend in Immokalee, FL. We made 6 flight for about 6
hours. What a dream ship. You would swear it was a singleplace 15m or
18m. Aileron control and roll rate were great. Even though this ship

Arcus Mass Balance / Control forces by
Peter F[_2_]
Hi All,
DG claim that the heavier controls on the DG1000 / 1001, compared to the
Duo are due to changes in the flutter requirements imposed on them by the
FAA. They claim that any new designs would have to meet these new
requirements and so the light control forces of the Duo would be unable to
be...
