Title: Almost a Cardinal.... Pics
Post by: Paul Taylor on January 09, 2008, 06:32:23 PM
Well I pulled a Harleyman and worked from home today. <=
I got a little work done on my Cardinal during my breaks.  LL~
Foam wing.
I just stuck it together to see what it is going to look like. Still need to do the motor mounts and doublers.
I am wrapping the whole thing in monokote.

Paul,
Looks good I like RED and BLACK, they look great together...........Don't forget to remove the monokote from the wing in the area that your going to glue so you will a good bond between the wing and fuse...........You are going to love this plane and the way it flys. Way cool. It will take you to a whole new level !!!

Hey!  I resemble that remark. 

Looking good my friend. y1  I like the hot dog groupie in the background.
Are you going to wrap the nose in MonoKote also? 
If so, you might want to coat a good portion (back to the tank mounts) with Epoxy, prior to Kote application.

I too, like the red and black.

I'm "at work" now also, but I run my own company, so my boss doesn't mind if I check out stunthanger once in a while.   My engineering lab is on the second floor of my house.

Well I have three computers sitting on my desk. So I just hit a KVM switch and bingo I am here. LL~ LL~

This is a scratch built Cardinal with a foam wing. I did not keep track of how much $$$ I spent but I think this plane cost way more then the kit. HB~>
But I am the BOM. #^
