David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 29-Sep-10 07:44 | | Views : 710 | Both are 1/16 scale. |
David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 27-Sep-10 14:15 | | Views : 633 | This filler makes these filets a breeze. It probably required less than 5 minutes per filet. |
David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 27-Sep-10 14:12 | | Views : 653 | The stabilizer and elevator are sanded to airfoil. The fin/rudders are flat with rounded edges. |
David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 27-Sep-10 14:09 | | Views : 544 | The second application goes on easily and is just as easily smoothed into the right shape. It will now dry another 24 hours before I sand it smooth. |
David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 27-Sep-10 14:02 | | Views : 609 | Filets the easy way. This is one application of filler applied with my finger. The objective is to get the general shape, not the finished product. I let this dry 24 hours. |
David Duckett | THACO Ercoupe | Build | 25-Sep-10 21:01 | | Views : 562 | I filled the gaps with scrap balsa and applied the first application of filler. Tomorrow I'll add the rear wing fairings and finish shaping the filets. |
