25 Years Ago in MA:
June
1982
This month's construction articles are for
Don Berliner and Ed Mitchell's large-scale
RC Cap-21 (plans 370) for gas power, Jerry
Caldwell's CL Super Star (plans 369)
designed for Precision Aerobatics and Sport
Scale competition, and J.F. Andrews' Strato-Streak
(plans 371), which can be built as a 1/2A FF
or two-channel RC model. Lou Garami
originally designed this Old-Timer in 1941.
George Myers gives us a tour of the 1982
WRAM Show and points out the newest
innovations in modeling such as the
synthesized receiver modules.
Larry Jolly covers the Two-Meter World Cup
held in Las Vegas, Nevada, that Don Edberg
won for the second year in a row.
Don Lindley and Stan Stoy show how to make
a DT timer for Hand Launched Gliders and
other small FF models from a $2 toy (Rascal
Robots).
Electric power is just catching on in
America, but famous Belgian modeler Peter
Blommaart writes an interesting article
about how electric-powered aircraft have
been popular in Europe for at least 10
years.
The AMA building fund topped the $100,000
mark this month. The goal is still $160,000. MA
