    Yes, Nason Ful-Thane 2K. Nope, just blew off with high pressure air, tacked, and shot. Two Coates. Went on well. Last time I did this was on a customers 1/3 scale piper cub, and shot it with Centari... Apparently it's tough and very expensive to get these days.

    I ordered them about a week ago in Black and ordered a Red fuse bag for my Futura. They look like great quality... we'll see when they get here.

    I also found a complet set of wing, interplane strut, and stab bags from REVOC custom wing bags. These look great and are very affordable, especially with the U.S. dollar bing so strong. http://www.shop.revoc.eu/en_US/c/EMHW/64

    Worked like a mad man today. Finished the bottom right wing, and covered, stitched, and got about 75% of the pinking done on the top two wings. I didn't calculate the pinking and ran short.

    The covering came in from Balsa USA.... Sooooo..... Back to covering wings! Next is the bottom right wing. I already went through and wired the wings and installed the XBus PC-4 PWM harness. The great thing is that I will have one deans and one signal connector on the bottom wings. This...
