G'day Glen/Richard.
We're getting live footage right now on pay tv. I hope you guys are okay. It looks pretty devistating for the victims. |

All pretty well south of glen and Richard. Looks like its between my coworkers house and our office. Still a scary hit.

The Stick

on my 40 sized planes I used a servo for each aileron On a couple of larger planes I put larger servos on each aileron after having flutter problems with the regular servos. Also went to a servo for each elevator half. I would keep the rudder if at all possible, typically if you want to reduce servos you increase the dihedral of the wing and forgo the aileron servos just using elevator and rudder.
Couldn't find any UAV style kits that aren't electric ARFs.

Jeez, it's cut a wide path. No report of casualties, I hope there's very few. A couple of schools destroyed they say. Do the schools have shelters/basements?

Most schools have some type of shelter, but it looks like one was almost completely leveled. I hate to say it but there will be casualties out of this.

Get off my lawn!

It is bad down there. Fine up up. We got lucky up north. It is strange that the tornado seems to go down the same path as the 1999 tornado.

Grady's house was hit in the 1999 storm. He did not live there then.

The schools all were in full tornado drill mode. All the kids made it out. Only minor injuries. So far so good.

You have likely heard about three deaths. They were in a 7-11 and with all that glass they had to be shredded. They were in the freezer, but that is not a shelter. Bad place to be.
