Wring It Out is the third in a trilogy of videos produced by Carl Goldberg Models, aimed as a step-by-step guide to improving your R/C aerobatic flying.
The demonstration aircraft used are an Ultimate 10-300 from Carl Goldberg Model (not surprisingly), using a YS 120 Airchamber four stroke and Futaba gear. A Giant Scale Engines Godfrey Extra 300 that uses a petrol powered Quadra 4.2cu in. 9bhp engine and a Bob Godfrey Extra 300 weighing in at 22lbs and powered by an Infinity 4.2 engine. The video moves out to the field and runs through a whole host of manoeuvres. Each manoeuvre is first demonstrated in full screen then repeated two or three times in slow motion. But this time the screen is split into two boxes. The upper right hand box has the aircraft performing the manoeuvre while the lower left hand box shows the transmitter and the control inputs.
The previous two tapes in this series will have taken you through all the basic stuff. Well, I hope they have, as Volume 3 begins with a flat spin followed by an inverted flat spin! What I learnt immediately was that to make an ordinary spin into a flat spin all you have to do is introduce aileron in the opposite direction to the rudder input! The rest of the video is taken up with the following manoeuvres:
The picture quality of the 52 minute VHS tape is very good considering that the original must have been filmed on the American NTSC system. Mike Mayne, the UK distributor, informs us that he does in fact have all the master tapes for all the range of videos he stocks. So that helps no end when reproducing tapes for commercial resale. Production standards were also excellent. And one great plus -no aggravating music throughout the tape! So
