Re: [RCSE] lightest covering?

2001-07-02 Thread George Voss
That would be micafilm, but it needs to be sealed with dope or some other sealer. If you're wanting a mylar/plastic film, Ultracote Light is the lightest. gv Andy Page wrote: > What is the lightest iron-on covering that is currently > readily available? > _

Any dealer out there who has a Multiplex IPD receiver (and possibly a crystal set CH 45) in stock? Price? Or anyone else has a spare to sell? Karlton is out of stock and I was hoping to get my new Flash in the air this weekend. Thanks, Frank -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net

Hey Jim, I had a few strange things happen with a vision as well. Out of the blue for no reason, all of my models would reset to a default flying wing template. This was wierd because when you change templates all of the travel volumes go to 66% and any mixes are not enabled. Mine would jus

Anyone flying an Omega Poly? I took mine out Saturday for first flights. Spent most of the day flying my new stretched (2M) Airtronics Questor - wow, just like old times. Haven't flown in 8 years, but once I got the cg far enough aft (plan location way too conservative), it felt almost bouyant.

If you're not in a big hurry, why don't you get an epoxy sample kit for $10 from Raka (www.raka.com). I've used a fair amount of this stuff on boats and a bit on models. Seems good. Good service, too, I think I've received my orders in a week or two. I think System 3 has a sample kit also. Your r

That is a good article. Another article on 'glassing a fuse is at Jim Ryan's site, in the Downloads section: http://home.fuse.net/ryan/ . For blotting up excess epoxy, I use a roll of toilet paper. "Roll" the roll on the surface to remove the excess, and when that "layer" of paper gets satur
