The advanced escapements were one blip for right rudder, two blips for
left rudder, and, if you had a compound escapement with a relay, you could
cascade it so that the third blip neutralized the rudder, and changed engine
speed from high, to a very shaky and undependable, low speed, through
an engine control escapement. (also driven by a rubber band.)

Saw my first R/C airplane fly in early 1950's. Model was an overweight
fat free-flier type - no chance of ROG. Owner would run like hell, throw
like hell, and then pray she didn't bounce off the ground before she started
to fly. On the occasion of my visit, she bounced. That de-tuned the receiver
and away she went, free flight. As there was no chance this thing would
thermal, it was merely a process of finding a country road that went downwind
about 5 minutes, and down she came after the engine quit. Next time everything
went well. He could actually - gasp - make the model TURN in the air! Gosh,
what will they do next?</font></font> <font face="Arial"><font color="#800000">There
