Before assembly

Very nicely done. What's the details on your covering procedure?
schmalra05-Jun-14 14:16
I use Wallpaper paste to attach the tissue. Then i shrink with water mist. After that 2 coats of 50/50 dope. The design of the model is very good. So i had no Problems with wrinkels.

Thank you. Also, what are the details of the receiver/servo system, and the motor / prop?

I use the receiver/servo and motor/prop from a nine eagles spitfire. Its a 2,4 GHz System. The lipo has 150 mAh. My monocoupe has 3 CH (rudder, elevator and throttle). I hope the power is enough to stay in the air. I will let you know.

Wallpaper paste! What a great idea. I can see several advantages. Do you use pre-mixed or powder?
schmalra10-Jun-14 01:32
I use the powder. Once mixed with water i can use it for a long time (I keep it in a glass with cap). It's pretty easy to use and it doesn't smell!

I'm not a flyer, so please pardon what might be a dumb question. The flaps on the wing are drawn on, so do you control the flight strictly with the rudder and elevators? Or did you use a magic brush like the Roadrunner and Coyote cartoons that allow a person (roadrunner) to zip through the tunnel?

The doors are also faked!
