| pfinn | 07-May-09 23:58 | | The microwave thing I believe I saw Pat Trittle doing on his "Brown B-2 Miss Los Angeles" build at RC Groups. I've had that particular kit on order now (the B-2) for...let's just say...quite a while. But hey, patience is a virtue. |
| jgood | 08-May-09 11:31 | | I did the same thing on the tail surfaces and wing tips of my Tritle Tiger Moth too. I prefer the wooden former you used, over the foam one I made. |
| pfinn | 08-May-09 13:26 | | Hey James. Pat seems to like this type of forming. And you know, I believe I am a convert as well. It's very clean, simple, light, and quick (and well, darned pretty). I think I'll be using this method wherever applicable. I'm going to explore this further with combining different woods and other material sandwiches to add a little more strength without too much added weight before the Dragon Rapide build. |
