CPN | 19-Mar-10 17:12 | Here's the completed model - balanced and ready for a calm day and potentially - its demise. |
pakasit1812 | 28-Mar-10 12:47 | A lovely look of Bird Dog forerunner. By the way, how did you paint her.So neat. |
CPN | 28-Mar-10 21:24 | The great proportions of the plane and the beautiful curves of the empennage really make this plane. The red is tissue. I covered the plane in silkspan and applied 2 coats of dope to seal it. With the red tissue - which is the kit decals scanned and printed onto domestic tissue glued to a sheet of printer paper - I just layed it into position and the painted over them with dope thinner. So far, no curling or pulling off. The white is Design Masters floral spray and some very careful masking. I've flown the plane since I've posted - I've gotten about 15 seconds with about 400 winds on the motor. I'm worried that I'll break the motor if I put too many turns on it. |
pakasit1812 | 29-Mar-10 01:49 | Thanks and Congratulations. Is it intact after the flight?
I hope it is. |
CPN | 29-Mar-10 11:48 | I had to repair some damage to one of the wheels and some damaged covering on the bottom, but the plane is back in flying condition now. |
