Anybody got any hints or tips on setting up a Microair 760? I have an eltec(?) mic from svsp that was recommended, but the transmission is reported as low and distorted.Have tweaked the mic gain pot, but doesn't seem to make any difference. Batt voltage around 12.5v.

It is a personal preference ….just like flying ridge, wave, etc…and personal selection that some may want…if it is not your choice, by all means do not do it…. It does result in a tremendous amount of altitude in a short period…take practice and qualifications, just like other aviation...

Our LS-4 (S/n 4093) was supposedly converted to an LS-4 in the 1980's. A logbook entry was made about the gear mod and the new bags put in. I was talking to another local pilot with an LS-4 and he says that the logbook entry isn't sufficient, that our S/N has to be on some list. Anyone know...

Has anyone used the Navman PiN 570 - PDA/Navigation Portable Handheld Device in a glider with PDA navigation software? These have now dropped below $250 in the US and may be a better deal than a used iPAQ now. It comes with a built in GPS, cradle and gooseneck. It runs WM2003 and has a 266 MHz ARM...

Wonder what kind of 'low rider' trailer you are running that cannot get a bottle jack under the side of it with a flat tire on the trailer? Or maybe you needed to buy a smaller bottle jack? Two important tips. ALWAYS loosen the lug nuts before jacking. And I would recommend placing the jack...

This is basically fly through the cloud, exit the opposite side, complete a 180 &...
