| Subject: | DIgital video camera mount |
--> Yak-List message posted by: "Roger Kemp" <viperdoc@mindspring.com>
Norm,
I have a Samsung sport digital camera with external lens that I velcro to
the top of my G meter and move as needed to my helmet. Am looking for the
screw in malleable mounting rod that I have seen the camera on in the past.
It is small, about the size of your wallet. Gives pretty good pictures that
are not affected by the A/c vibration. It may have a fisheye lens but
truthfully, I have not taken the time to go to the website to see if it is
offered.
One more idea for you.
Doc

I am curious what your FOD cover covers. I have protection for the rear bell crank
but it always seemed to me that the forward bell crack was the more suseptable
of the two. Has anyone built a cover for the area under the rear seat?

| Subject: | Re: OSH Yak Forum |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Cliff Umscheid <netmaster15@juno.com>
Barry,
The following is just a suggestion--subject to your judgement as to its
relevance and its value-- for inclusion in your presentation.
Under the heading of checking yourself out in a high powered tailwheel
airplane in which your first ride is solo and everything turns in the
opposite direction, For example, in the case of the YAK 50, where you
don't see very much over the nose. Be guided by these cardinal rules;
First: Have a substantial amount of tailwheel experience in aircraft
with high H.P.
Second: Seek out and heed the advice of those who have flown the
airplane before.
Third: Read everything you can lay your hands on and KNOW the airplane
and its systems.
Fourth: Forget about making high speed taxi runs before making the first
flight. If that sounds strange--Trust me on that one. History
has,unfortunately, been made by one adventurous YAK 50 purchaser known
to many early YAK owners. In this case the result was extensive damage
to the aircraft resulting in expensive repairs. Once you start down the
runway on takeoff, do not pull the power off when the tail comes up and
you are NOT heading in the desired direction. You will be off the ground
before you can finish saying "H SHIT" . You can straighten it out in the
air when you can see over the nose.
Fifth: If there's a voice in your ear saying you are NOT ready for
this excursion, LISTEN to it and get some more training. Our
adventurous, would -be YAK 50 pilot made three attempts to solo his
airplane and each time found an excuse to postpone the exercise
when timidity overcame courage . Worse, he had been warned not to engage
in his planned high speed taxi tests. High speed taxi is just another
phrase for aborted takeoff . A YAK 50, in the hands of a novice, can get
squirly in a hurry if you do not know what to expect the first time out;
that's when the learning curve is the steepest. Torque is to the right
and requires LEFT rudder to correct. Brakes are pneumatic and are applied
with a hand brake located on the stick, there are no toe brakes. That's a
lot of strange stuff to sort out when you are heading for the boonies and
the view blocking nose comes up as forward speed decays.. Oh yes, don't
forget, when you pull the stick back to plant the tailwheel , you are
LOCKING the tailwheel for straight ahead trajectory.
Note: Once you get used to the differences the YAK 50 is a dream to fly
and the rate of climb will knock your socks off. 3600 FPM is easily
obtained and the wing continues to fly long into the vertical. It also
continues to fly long into the rollout after landing. That can surprise
you if landing with even a slight crosswind. Beware of lifting of the
upwind wing during ground rollout.
Hope you find this useful.
Regards,
CLIFF
