    If I remember correctly, I Painted an entire fuse, belly, cowl, and canopy for Justin Handa ( a John Willman Design called the Quasar) and it only was about 12 oz. of weight. It is a 2M 35-50cc size. The whole fuse was mold made much like our cowls. I will try and get some pics!

    Scale David Kocjančič Is The Worlds Greatest Scratch Builder PERIOD.

    After seeing the vid.... I wonder if the prop will clear when the tail of the plane is up and it is rolling on the main gear?

    As I was doing some research on the DLE engines, (just because I have a budget planned for the Viper, It will get a DA next year!) The 111, compared to the 120 in HP is about perfectly even given the weight saving of .5 lbs. on the 111. If you were to look at it from a thrust issue though, it is...

    Did you have any trouble with that soaking into the wood as it dried? When I did my PAU it seemed to soak into the wood, so I soaked it down a little with CA, it seemed to help. I thought I may try the hairspray trick next time.

    As you two are figuring this out, and doing very nice work! I am wondering..... After either technique, you use primer, then prep for paint?

    At-a-boy Rick! Looks like I will have to add another plane build to my list! For all that hasn't seen one of Rick's planes in person, I assure you they are quality! He displayed one at our "FBI" event last year, Super awesome! This is one you should be checking out also!:big_yes:

    Does this wing placement not being at the same height of the stab also create snap tendency problems? I was always under the impression that this is why they fly inverted better? Am I wrong?

    Thanks for the response! Now it makes more sense to me. I am slightly concerned about the long term results for your canopy using dry wall compound as a filler. because there is no hardening chemical or process, I fear it may shrink over time also. Even if you use a 2 part primer over the...
