passed today

[rachel]

went to the club today and as it was quite calm i asked are examiner if he thought i was ready for the a test so he said have a little warm up after that he said i needed more practice on the lazy eights so after a few tanks he did the test and after what i thought was the hardest bit ie the questions he passed me yipee.

Thats totally awsome
Now you can go from scaring the CR*P out of Duncan Osbourne to showing him some new moves

seriously thats a fab result

[...]if any of you get this question the answer is 6mm

[...]WTF was the question..?

i was waiting for that but having gone through the handbook it seems that reference to that particular point has been removed it was about the minimum radius of leading edges of nosecones ,wings and blades etc the only think i can find is a ref to rc glider nosecones which 7.5mm rad. I must have a word with my examiner

Unless my geometry is very much mistaken.., a 6mm minimum radius on a leading edge would mean no blade could be less than 12mm thick

[If the leading edge actually has an edge where two (6mm or more) radii meet, the radius of the actual edge will be << 6mm.]

I can't think why that isn't in the handbook...

I have this nightmare about being asked about adjacent channel checks, or the different frequency peg-board schemes, or when can you use 27MHz or such; coupled with the suspicion that answering 'I only use 2.4GHz' won't be good enough.
