    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    Got it all strung up in the Vanessa rig this afternoon and like I thought it was tail heavy. Actually very tail heavy. Now granted a few things have changed since the crash. No more wheel pants, which were heavy and the the pilot was cut out. The CG was at 8.25" from the leading edge. I am...

    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    Picked up some hardware at lunch and got the landing gear installed. I also sanded the cowl down yesterday and got everything reassembled. Not going to worry about painting the cowl for now. Hopefully I'll get it strung up this evening and get the CG checked and see what I need to move around...

    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    I've never used a spindle sander. But I do have some planes to lighten it up when I strip it down some day. Going to pick up some longer hardware for the landing gear here in a few. Then I'll get that mounted up. Also have to send the receiver off to Horizon to get looked at. For some reason...

    It already has quite a few decals on the cowl, what is a few more. Good idea Cappy.

    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    I don't have any paint to match for the cowl, but I'm really not that worried about it. I really dont want to go to all the trouble of buying paint and re-painting it, when my end goal it to re-cover it and change the scheme. I just want to fly it! :banana-dance:

    3D JAG's 35% Carden Edge

    I have the color to match the bottom of the fuse. It has been replaced. It is Monokote metallic red. I guess at some point, Monokote changed this color. So on the wings there is the old color and patches of the new color. All the patches I have added are the new color as well. Its noticable, but...

    Sanded and shaped the bottom of the fuse this morning. Turned out pretty good. Just waiting on the glue to try and the motor box slanted plate and it will be ready to cover.

    Gorilla Glue worked great on some I repaired. From what I have read, I would not use CA.

    When I bought the plane, the pilot head was cracked and he just couldn't handle the hard landing. So I cut him out. I just need to add some bracing. I also replied the canopy where it had came loose.

    Yeah I'm just messing with Cappy. The repair job is great. It had some crappy repairs done before so he fixed those as well. I have a sander just haven't got to it yet.
