Well, in addition to a seahawk that hicthed a ride with us, here is the main flying thing on the Launch Platform. I have been told that one of the Russian crew members here also is a model flyer, not too sure if he flys CL or RC though. Lets see if my pictures are better now?

The picture is only 2.8kb, so it's overly compressed. Kinda small, pixel width, but that's not the main issue. If you can start anew with the same jpeg, take it one step at a time. Crop first. Then resize to 500 > 650 pixel width. Then compress to 30 to 50 kb, and it should be good. The last step takes some experimenting. I change the name on each step by adding a % sign, so I can sort out which was the last variant that I may want to go back to. Steve

Again, if you want, send it to me by e-mail and I can replace it in the picture file with one properly sized for the forum.

Well,

This one is 49 KB but it's not compressed. I don't know how it will look but let's give it a go - - -!

Well now, that's better!

Maybe I'm learning something after all?

Nice picture Jim,
I don't even see the control lines. Will it to a outside loop?

I would not think they let you fly your c/l planes on the ship???


Just kidding.

I am a retread, - I did C/L in my youth and did not know what I was doing then other then having fun. And not much has changed.
