RE: [RCSE] Replacement BOT ARF received today-Still wrong

[Jim Stovall]

Steve,   I'd send it back! Who's to say that's not the only place the grain is incorrect and that it still won't fold up off the winch again? I'd say Tower has yet to solve the quality problem, and where else on this airframe ARE  there quality issues???. Get your $$ back while you can!   Best Regards, Jim -----Original Message----- From: Steve Gibson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 8:37 PM To: rc Soaring Exchange Subject: [RCSE] Replacement BOT ARF received today-Still wrong I received my replacement Bird-of-Time ARF from Tower today.  I was curious to see if Dynaflight corrected the spar shear web construction.   No surprise, the grain of the shear web is still running horizontal to the spar instead of running perpendicular to the spar.   Instead of sending it back, I think I will strip the monokote, correct the shear web problem, strengthen the spar box, put spoilers in the BOT and cover in a different color of monokote.   Anybody have any other suggestions?   Steve Gibson
