Catégorie: Finishing : Canopy

I found a small problem with the canopy fairing. It doesn't stick to the skin at the front, see the picture :



I sanded the fairing back to find where it was sticking correctly, I needed to sand back 1/2". It seems my problems come from not sanding correctly the skin, see how it is shiny on the left. I will sand away all that is not sticking correctly and redo the front of the fairing.

Catégorie: Empennage : Tip

I filled the small defects I had detected after the priming; Once the parts are dry and sanded I will store them again as it id a bit too cold to do the priming now.

Catégorie: Empennage : Tip

If only epoxy was as easy to sand as the primer, those tips would be stored now.
In one hour I got all seven tips sanded and the defects marked. There are not that many, sometimes just an isolated pinhole. The worst part is the lower rudder tip and the parts perpendicular to the control need also to be worked upon.
