Paul Naton - Setup and Tuning Model Sailplanes
Paul Naton of Radio Carbon Art is probably the most viewed resource on all things associated with Thermal Duration, Slope Soaring and Discus Launch (DLG) gliders. Most all of us in the hobby have seen at least one of his videos and owe Paul a debt of gratitude for bringing professional level video training on most any aspects of sailplane flying. Taking advantage of his latest work in sailplane tuning (see Precision Tuning Techniques) http://www.radiocarbonart.com/PTTDVDSET/ the Wednesday Program covers the following subjects via FaceTime video: • New concepts in flight tuning • Importance of mechanical setup • Optimizing snap-flap, camber and elevator mixes • Fine tuning aileron differential • Mixing ailerons and rudder • Testing CG (center of gravity) without a dive test • How to fly with CG set further aft • How to flight test your plane • Troubleshooting setup and tuning problems Paul also touches on some of his latest work in advanced air reading to help your thermaling. This video will help you learn how to get more performance out of your glider while reducing your effort to fly.
