Thanks Sparky (I think...)
I believe that forums such as this one can be a tremendous asset to those who are searching for information, and a great vehicle for those who are more experienced to impart information. Obviously the field of electric powered CL models is still in its infancy and there is a lot for all of us to learn and to impart.
The rules of this forum state that you must include your actual name in your user profile. Handles are okay for posts, but your actual name must be listed for those who want to know who is answering their questions. This is just plain courtesy. Please check your profile now and if you actual name is not there, please list it. Nuff said on that subject.
I believe that the vast majority of modelers who visit this section of the Stunt Hangar forum are already involved in or seriously interested in electric powered CL flight. If you want to ask pertinent questions about electric flight, or want to share factual information about your experiences (good or bad) about electric flight, you are more than welcome here. What will not be welcome are those who just want to take jabs at electric flight. I would hope that those of you who are electric flight devotees would also not go to one of the other "propulsion" sites on this forum and "take shots" at the subject matter there.
There is now a Debate section on Stunt Hangar. Debate is okay, and those who want to participate in, or follow, debates now have a place where they can go and enjoy such stuff. This section of the forum is for and about electric flight. Let's all agree to keep it that way and help each other to more fully understand and enjoy this amazing propulsion mode.
Dean Pappas is the main moderator for this section; that will not change and I will follow whatever directives that Dean gives me.
Finally, remember, electric power for model flight is the worst it will ever be today. It's already very good and will continue to improve for years to come.
Yours for better modeling - Bob Hunt
