Bill:
From the mechanical
design point of view of Eagle, we have a very raw concept but no
real design yet. I am awaiting Bob McGwier's documenting the real
values of the control and stability numbers on this raw concept
before doing ANY real design work or even the release of information of
this concept yet. This is because I do not want to publish, or do any heavy
design work, on this concept until we are VERY sure that this is what we want to
fly.
This is also why I
have turned away several solicitations for publishing a paper, on the
"design", for the Space Symposium or even the Journal. I have placed five years
of design work on the small Eagle on hold (trashed) and I do not want to repeat
that fiasco. We may have some releasable design at the time of the
Symposium, but not in time to create a paper.

Hi All:
I am scheduled to give an Eagle presentation at the
Hill Country Amateur Radio Club on Thursday Sept. 7.
Tom and Bob gave a good one at Central State and
Keith Pugh gave one at Austin Summerfest one week later. I assumed that I
could find these on the AMSAT Web site and burn a CD of them. However,
including Eaglepedia, I can't find anything like the above
presentations. Eaglepedia is mostly words and pretty dry as
presentation material.
Does someone have a disk? Or can I find the
material somewhere?
Please advise ASAP.
73,
Bill, W3XO
