Gary,
So, you found a Sympo article full of someone's theoretical
suggestions, but it didn't prove correct when compared with your
flying notes. Imagine that.

Actually no, I have nothing to prove to others flying LPP in this
Postal who are NOT making didactic pronouncements about how to fly
higher times before having real evidence to show. So, I am only
concerned about *your* times. Even my own times won't be too
interesting to me, unless I stumble upon a new AMA record. BTW, any
official times I report will be timed by someone else. This is not
part of the Postal rules, and obviously I can't instist on you doing
the same, but it would be nice.
<<And when we're done, I can tell you what fixed prop and
thin motor size to use to beat your time. ;-) >>
That's the spirit :^)) I likewise won't hide anything if
(presumptuously) anyone wants to know something.
BTW, would be interesting to see a picture of your foot
stooge/cuphook model holder hooked around the prop spar of your LPP
while you stretch out the rubber for winding, if I understand your
system correctly.
How many strands do you intend to braid for your LPP motor? This
may be another innovation for indoor duration.
