Sanding sealer

Hi Myron. I can`t even remember when i last saw cellulose dope for sale in Norway, Its a bit difficult to have it sendt by post because it`s to flameable and liguid. I also think that the ARTF wave have struck us as well, so there isn`t any real good shops that supplies trad builders anymore. When you can find it it is expensive as H..... I usally buys my stuff from UK stores with a good web service, and I have to say that they gives exellent service in all matters. Cheers -
Sanding sealer
Øyvind Sørlie replied to Øyvind Sørlie's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
Hi again. I am quite a fan of Poly-C, This is some sort of PVA solution,it is OK to sand as long it`s not getting warm.( Then it softens a bit). Maybe an idea to try the Talcum with this. -
Sanding sealer
Øyvind Sørlie replied to Øyvind Sørlie's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
Thanks Alistair. I am either using Profilm or 100 micron Dokulam for covering .That fuselage top surface have been given me a slight headache. wold a soft cotton or fleece glove do the trick ?. And to the two other guys, since i am living in a sivilised country there is no healt risk not to do the tax refund, but it is bloody expensive!!. I am working in an industry with a high focus at healt issues , caused by dust and toxid fumes /gas. So i am always trying to use remedies without this issues. The sanding sealers i have seen advertised is full of the stuff you dont want to breed inn ,and it would probably been banned in proffessionally use. I do have som other projects going on, so i am wondering if there is anyone that have som experience with waterbased or similar IF there are any. Cheers -
I am building a NH Tucano and it is time to covering the model. The surface of all that Soft balsa makes me wonder ,if it would look more than a porkypine, unless i seal and sand it. Never used sanding sealer before and need to be tought a lesson. I would prefer something without health hazard. Any advice somewon.

Hi guys. I just bought a Spectrum DX6i and now iam fishing for some quick answers. Since the set didnt include anything else than a transmitter and a reciever i am wondering if i have to use battery wires with a chargin socket to bind it. or is there another way around. Can i use a esc with Bec, and plug the bind plug in the battery socket on the reciever.

Set up for NH Tucano 45"
Øyvind Sørlie replied to Øyvind Sørlie's topic in General Electric Flight Chat
Probably a better solution. I think i will choose a motor that gives 400w without to much stress on 3s lipos. Then finish the model as light as possible, and then deside on powerpac. when i know the weight, needed op front to balance. To assure the best flying capabillities i will keep it as light as possible. -
Set up for NH Tucano 45"
Øyvind Sørlie replied to Øyvind Sørlie's topic in General Electric Flight Chat
Thanks to you all. My plan was to use 3700mah 3s lipos,but if this means i have to add som dead weigt up front, i have to reconsider. I feel that to choose nimh is to take a step bacwards, i want to use the equipment in a later project. Using Lion`s will add some more weight and also be more crash resistant. Or as an alternative go for a heavier motor that i can use in a bigger model later,but since there is nothing like a free lunch ,I suspect that some of you more experienced E-flyers , will tell me a lesson. Maybe i am wrong,but if I choose a heavier and more powerfull motor , power source, prop, KV, this would give the same performance and flight time,and only give the weight penalty i will need up front. By the way, Norway did a double victory in Ski biathlon world championship to day! -

Thanks. By the way do you have any experience with Deans conectors compared to the usual 3,5 mm gold connectors. What limitations is there in amps at the Deans? -
I am building a Nigel Hawes Tucano 45". It should end up with a auw some where between 1500 and 1900 grams. Is there some experienced buliders or flyers that could give me some advice about the power train. MVVS or Hacker prefered.

Hi. I have built some models of depron, I found some plans in different Web sites, start to Google and I am sure you will find a lot of downloads for free, and plans to buy.
