| Hey Sly... looks really great, very smooth. Was that one solid sheet of balsa on the wing or did you have to glue two parts together? |

| hi sweet, first i temp installed that canopy to make note where the concaved area was situated, then fill the area with 1.5 mm balsa to match. After that i used strips of balsa to fill that gaps, then mirco fill it all. Sand to make the final fitting of the canopy snug. The key is to not make the gaps between the balsa to large or the mircofill will have a hard time staying put when the final sanding is carried out.. |
