Great flight, with a bad landing

You are being way too hard on yourself!! Landing was good! Just gotta get used to the way it lands so that the speed will be a lil lower. this plane does not like to turn on the ground with any kind of speed...

hey Urrl where ya all get a lake? lol as I recall there are lakes in markem park but not at the flying field :)

[JohnVH]

All you had to do it just taaaap the brakes alittle lol the landing was spot on, you just have to work on the taxiing after words.

Im going to add brakes, anyone know what diameter the axles are?

You need to rethink your definition of bad landing mister. That wasn't a bad landing. I could show you a bad landing! LOL LOL

Haha! Maybe so!

Friday morning flight

Yeah maybe the clear was bad from the factory?

[Boots Whirlygig]

Ace Hardware standard stuff.... Good paint really, I have painted over the white with the red and blue, and other combos... No wrinkling, runs, creeps, etc. So then the clear should have been compatible, right??

You sure would’ve thought. Hey Rustoleum, what gives!?! Maybe too wet of a clear coat? Just don’t know. Shouldn’t have happened in my mind.

[Hardway]

Hey, but the canopy is moving along. Just have the little gray fuselage corners to do!!! :Cool::) (also, the 1600mm Spitfire is calling me.....:Sweating:)

Give me a few minutes and I will post pics of the paint. They are rattle cans from Ace Hardware. I tested all of them on an old A-10 wing, Put it on really heavy (color coats) to check for gatoring, and then clear coated it with gloss and matte about 10m after the color had gassed off and started to get tacky... So the base coat being dry was not an issue. It had been on a couple of days from spraying the vertical stab to clear...

[Boots Whirlygig]

This is my #1 fear when contemplating a repaint, finding an incompatibility ON the project. Please tell us WHAT paint and clear coat you used. Maybe the color coat wasn’t dry? That really sucks.

[rifleman_btx]

Yeah that makes absolutely no sense at all...:Confused:

[Hardway]

Vertical stab is ordered..... Glad it was in stock!!! Going to mow the yard and smoke a cigar and contemplate the chemical incompatibility of paint and clear coat made by the same manufacturer!! :Thinking:
