Using Firefox I just had to go to "view options" (third bar from the left) and "letter/figure code" (third bar from below) to enable Cyrillic letters (code 1251).

Too easy.
Ha.

Danke schön!

So much for my computer engineering degree. :)

Works great.

re: London this morning

Makes you wonder when this will ever end? Can someone please explain why there's so many stupid, blind, hateful nutjobs on this planet...

My thoughts go out to the U.K. and her people today. Hope you and your family are well Tom.

Happy Canada Day fellow Canucks

It's a warm day, time for a cold beer, a donut, and some poutine. Go to Ottawa, enjoy the fireworks, and laud our superiority over those Americans.
(meant in the nicest way of course...cause we're darn polite).

HAPPY CANADA DAY EH! :)Image

At less than 10 feet away, the shockwaves were just unreal.

My damn Windows Media Player is broken, but it played last time I tested it.

Enjoy.

Re: re: Afterburner for FD3?

I'm not sure if this project ever powers an aircraft! At first it has to burn OK, then the controls will follow..... What do you think how this afterburner affects on the temperature of the turbinewheel? I have only a V2A-Steel wheel, because inconel steel resisted my tools..... :P You haven't spoo...

re: Afterburner for FD3?

I've never actually tried this, though I've read about it on other forums (rcuniverse). Plus, at least here in Canada, it's illegal according to the MAAC.
I'm not saying don't do it, just be carefull. Let us know how it turns out, and keep the pictures coming.

Horace, what do you recommend?
