    3D Restoring The Yak

    Danville is about two hours southwest of me. I'm just south of Richmond. I have flown at the south Boston field before which is right there beside Danville. Also a bad ass road course Virginia International Raceway VIR is just the other side of Danville. My dad goes out there quite a bit running...

    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    I will admit the graphix from Dennis really make the tail pop. If it is still alive when dennis can get back in his shop I may have to some stars and bars for it to really stand out.

    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    Couple of better outside pictures with most everything installed. Looks like it should be sub 4lbs RTF. My last one was 4.25lbs so it's a huge improvement.

    Mojo 40 is nearing completion. Decided a L4 Grasshopper scheme was in order. I shall call it the MoHopper40. LOL. Couldn't resist using some of the extra graphics @Decal Dennis sent me a while back.

    Just do it bud. Covering is fun once you get the hang of it.

    3D When is a plane used up?

    I know the feeling man. When I restored an old kadet SR for a buddy the whole thing just about fell into a bunch of pieces when I pulled the covering off. Not sure how it stayed in the air.

    3D When is a plane used up?

    I'm with spats rarely ever do I get the heat gun out. Really only if I have a stuborn wrinkle. Not sure what it is about it but I have found the planes I shrink the covering with the iron on don't seem to have covering that starts sagging in the sunlight.

    3D When is a plane used up?

    Once you cover a few things it's not to bad. I have actually gotten pretty good at it (in my opinion at least) and now it's one of my favorite parts of a build. I will soon be stripping down a 33% hangar 9 edge540 and doing a complete recover on it. A thread will be started when it happens.
