I installed the sheeting flush with rib #2 and the overhang towards the joint of the center panels. I cut off the excess a...

Wing Construction has Begun!
With the fuselage squared away ;) I feel its time to move on to the wings. As with the previous steps of the build, I start by making a part reference sheet and trace all the parts. The idea here is to identify each part so others can easily see what parts are what and where they go. Once I had the ...

WillyKote - Application Technique
Hey guys! I'm getting ready to cover the fuselage of my WN Gentle Lady 250. I've got a mix of transparent and opaque colors I'll be using.
What temperature(s) do you use for applying the covering?
Any tips or tricks? I've only worked with monokote so far in my balsa building experience.
