Re: saturday Zoom session
Thx Dave....
I was never a fan of suction cup being afraid of having it falling, but from your experience it seems to be
holding good if you have been using it for that long.
I will be trying it out

Re: Fuselage assembly
Unfortunately we have had experience with the different types of tank slosh and like I believe Sam said don't do it. If you want to check the tank don't put fuel in instead do a 24 hour balloon test.

Re: Fuselage assembly
Richard, I’d rather not use fuel tank sealant if I don’t need it but will need to fuel it to see the tanks integrity. Do you have any experience with the epoxy slosh used in a tank after it

Re: Tri-Q vs QAC Belly Boards
Mac server from. ACS. Yes, there is an indicator for server. You have to figure how you want server to hook to ailerons to reflex.
I dont think electric belly board is of value.

Re: saturday Zoom session
Hi Michel
I've had this mount for a maybe 10 years. It's been so long ago, I don't think it's a specific brand. I know it came from Walmart and was less than $15.

My 2-cents. Manual is faster to deploy and bring up.. No needed for incremental use ( no notches in lever). It's either full up or full down.

Re: Fuselage assembly
Pure epoxy works just fine. Just make sure you have good coverage. An aluminum tank makes no sense. As for compounds to prevent leaks, that's what the epoxy is for. I have heard of people of applying
