Re: EMHW Katana Monokote covering thread
I will see how it works out, after time of course- all is well so far! I am not sure how much is too much, or not enough..... almost seems as though it is evaporated by the time I get the graphic positioned and ready to tack down, but I hope it has done something chemically to promote adhesion!
Thanks for the tip! Here's a lo quality pic of what I'm doin-

Re: EMHW Katana Monokote covering thread
Hi I am in awe of your plane, Its beautiful! Your doing such a great job on the covering. I am building my first kit now, its much smaller a .60 Extra 300l. I am so nervous about the covering job I was googling first covering with Monokote and found your link in Flying Giants. Any advice on getting into a plane of this size? I would be thrilled for any advice at all. Love flying but 70inch wingspan is the biggest I have now.

Re: EMHW Katana Monokote covering thread
Unreal dude, just insane work !
How muck experience did you have with the Paint Sprayer before this job ? I want to do a custom scheme but I am worried about my ability to pull off the cowl paint job. Thanks. Last edited by crash-n-burn; 06-21-2009 at 01:31 AM. |

Re: EMHW Katana Monokote covering thread
Hey there!
OMG that cover was damn nicely done!! Im trying to find myself a great future plane, but at the same time, having a long time project while i "Kill" my 2meter plane. How is your total impression from the kit? im thinking about 1 to 1 1/2 year build time, due to both size and echonomy Have you had some air on the wings yet now that its done? Im more into flying IMAC than 3D for starters like everyone, but prob will with time like to do some 3D atleast, how would this kit fit in there? |
