    IMAC Dietrich 42% Slick rebuild.

    I found if you iron down a piece of scrap covering over the residue and then peel it off it will grab alot of the residue as well. Whats lefter over after that I usually wipe off with some monokote trim solvent and then it will wipe right off. The best way though is what stang mentioned, take...

    PAU Owners Thread

    I always say I'm going to do that when I put a plane together but then I get too impatient and usually end up saying screw it. The plane is looking good, will this be making the trip down to apache pass this year :)

    50cc Motor Box Question?

    My only plane that has angle iron is my 3dhs 104 slick. The only plane I have that ever had motor box problems is my 3dhs 104 slick since it does not have locking tabs on the side of the motor box, just on top and bottom for the light ply. The angle iron eventually fatigued and cracked and...

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    I'm using deep red. I see they used to make some ultracote paint but don't any more. Is Radiosouth paint any good? I wanna say I heard they make rattle cans to match ultracote.

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    Yeah I'm gonna bug some guys at the field and see if they'll help me out and put the paint on since I don't have any of the equipment...if not I'll see if I can get a rattle can...if all else fails I can always redo it differently.

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    I'm intimidated by anything that requires an artistic touch so I need the dummied down version. Plus I've never done any kind of body repairs on anything that I wanted to look pretty when I'm done. Thanks for the tips! I'm sure I'll learn as I go. This whole project is basically so I can...

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    Need some advice. I'm a noob when it comes to painting or any kind of airplane finishing work for that matter. I'm getting ready to recover my slick and I basically want to change the orange on the canopy and cowl from orange to red. As for the cowl, I want to keep all the other colors and...

    EF 104 Extra vs AJ Slick 104

    I have both. I think I like the extra better...seems to track better and to me is more violent for tumbles, crankshafts, etc and feels better for a more all around plane. The slick is still a good flying plane and I think has better slow speed characteristics and knife edges better. Its kind...

    3D 75cc 106" HyperLITE Slick 540 by Fibertech N More

    Don't get me wrong, I seriously wouldn't trade mine for the world. She let me convince her to move to a house with some property and a guest house and a bigger garage so that we could have some more airplane space.

    Time for a new brand/stuck on two

    EF edge with DA60 would be my vote. I bought that to be my beater plane but the more I beat it up the more I love it. I've only flown a handful of 30%er's and the edge has been my favorite so far. I imagine all planes that have been listed will be a blast though. I've also flown the EF edge...

    prop on a DLE 35 re

    Don't put a Mej 19x8....it sucks. I haven't flown my 35 that much this past year, I just ordered a Falcon 20x8 to try out on it so we'll see if it makes a difference.
