  Subject: [Indoor_Construction] Record Keeping


  I have 'played' with indoor on and off over the years, mainly in the 80s and
  90s, but it was always second to outdoor. Increasing age makes outdoor more
  difficult which gives me an urge to do indoor 'properly'. For that reason I
  would welcome your secrets on what, in my opinion, is the most difficult and
  important part of indoor - no, not making a VP prop or the camber of your
  tailplane section but the keeping of records.

  What do you record: turns, back off, turns left, torque, time,
  ceiling,...??? When, immediately? Where, loose leaves, notebook, tape
  recorder? How, tabular, odd scribbled notes? I have a feeling I saw a
  sample page of Jim Richmond's notes somewhere, perhaps in a Sympo, but I
  can't find it now.

  I do think that this aspect of model flying is important but I do find it a
  chore so any suggestions for doing it right would be appreciated.
