Welcome to the Simulators area - online also has a separate area to arrange sessions etc

what happened with this project Richard, did you get it going ? Just looking at an Autopilot module using the processors I program for clocks etc. Paul

Not sure if everyone is up to speed but we have a DJ for the Friday night pilots party, he does all sorts of music so should be a good laugh. Paul

Hi Guys, Greetings from a hot and sunny Cape Town, South Africa, hope you're all well and not too cold (Mid to high 20's here this week). Been out here working for a couple of weeks but heading back to London end of next week in time for Christmas. Hope you've managed to get some flying in, see you "up the field" sometime in 2011 !! Happy Christmas and a Great 2011 to you and yours and hope Santa leaves you a large box of balsa. Regards Paul C

Thanks Richard, When the traders register and pay they get the chance to add a URL for their website which we just transposed, it appears a lot have no idea what there website address actually is lol Fixed a few bits but not really much I can do to about the bad sites, if they want a link aimed at a part finished or Odd site then "C'est la vie" ! Regards Paul

Darren got the shirts but they were done to order in a couple of batches. Defo worth dropping him a line to see if he has any spares.. Paul

Hi Guy, Just getting everything "IT" together for the show and though I would post some details here to kick everything off. I am bringing a laptop with full mobile internet to the hop farm and will be posting stories etc from the lead up to and from the actual show via a couple of routes. hoping to get a little more time to do this in 2010 as I believe we have a few more photographers etc this year. I will be running stories, mailings and feeds on the main site as this is where most visitors turn up first but I will also be looking to use the following too.. The Twitter feed i

How about a more honest logo ? Paul

or alternatively, the Jim and Leon version.. Paul

Attached is the new cleaned up version of the logo including the 1978 date What do you all think ? Paul

LOL, that's what I started with but I couldn't find any info - anyone know what year we started ? also I wanted to avoid having 2008 in the title so was thinking :- Founded 19xx BMFA-xxxx Paul

Hi Guys, what about this for the logo..? Paul

Guys, Have a look on the www.southernmodelairshow.com site, I put a 'your comments' page on there and all of the comments received so far are - brilliant, loved the new layout - best ever etc etc.. Congrats to everyone who helped make it the best show in the UK, full stop. Several people mentioned branded T's, polo's and sweaters - if people would like them, I'm sure we could have a word with some people I know or Spiffys people and get a batch made up - All those in favour of investigating and/or would be willing to buy CAMFC branded kit please say 'Ey' Paul P.S. Chris, I

Hi Peter, Looks like the bring and buy is going to be a bit hectic - in a week, the form to book stuff in to the B&B has been downloaded 50 times from the SMAS site ! Interestingly, the terms and conditions have only been downloaded 24 times Paul

Just checked again now and were almost to 400 visitors today, 17,417 hits - if you look at the bottom of any page you will see a 5 minute average - the site has spent most of the day averaging 25-30 new people visiting every 5 minutes !! SMAS is now officially the busiest site on the entire network ! Sweet ) Paul

Changed the format to JPEG so should be a bit smaller now Paul

Guys, I agree with all the comments so far, what a great show.. Dazzle is just sorting out the Photo's to go on the new Gallery system so should have them up soon. We have decided in the spirit of the show to open the gallery up to anyone who wants to post pictures from the show, members and non-members. If you want to have a look and/or post your own pictures up you can go to http://www.southernmodelairshow.com/gallery2 to be able to post you will have to register but if your just looking you can still vote for pictures. As soon as Dazzle has got some pics up we will put a

Bugger - looks like I missed a good day, had a family lunch and by the time I could have come to the field I had too much wine to drive.. Did manage to get a couple of hours on Saturday, 3 of us up there and some good flying was had.. still, I like the Sundays for the banter and the laugh. Hopefully see you there this Sunday after the gun club.. Paul

Joe, Did you measure the voltage with the regulator in circuit or just wired up to a battery ? The reason I ask is that most regulators only work properly under a load, it doesn't have to be much but there has to be something on the output or they wobble and give bad results.. also, check the wiring instructions some need to share a negative line, some need to be isolated (battery negative separate from the RX negative), this can also screw the output. Chance's are its screwed but hope this helps.. Paul

Hi Guys, Probably should know better than to admit it but I look after commercial web sites for a living If your happy for a new member to give you a hand, im happy to help. Paul
