For the guys applying the water slide decals in the kit are you using some brand of decal set?
Thanks in advance! :-)Current Hanger: FW, F4.F22,F14, Byron T-6, Top Flite P-47, Top Flite P-40, Top RC P-51 H9 P-51, SebArt Avanti, Yellow aircraft Spitfire, T Jeti Extreme Flight EDGE, DS-24 Carbon,

Is the setting solution something you apply after the decal is on, or you use it instead of water???

TI I had the same flap servo issue you did. I solved it by extracting the servo and moving the servo horn a notch. Now both my servo horns for flaps are at about the same angle. They just put one on wrong I guess.
I also stiffened up the elevators a bit. They seemed a bit weak.
Jetdude that VMA-121 bird looks amazing! well done sirMeridian Aeromodelers, Meridian MS

RCJetdude, what are you using to fill in your panel lines? I've tried washes but fine that the paint tends to soak in the fluid and not let it streak properly. I've been just sticking to the airbrush method.Current Fleet: Flightline Tigercat, Flightline Bearcat, Eflite Corsair, ESM Skyraider, Pilot RC Yak-54 30%:corsair

I couldn't stand it, so I went ahead and dirtied her up! All I did was take a charcoal pencil to draw in the lines, then used a thin hard-bristle brush to blend it and give the lines some shadow. Still have a little more to do, then will hit it with a coat of Testors Dullcote to seal it and knock down the shine of the decals.
I always use a setting solution for my water slide decals. Makes them snuggle right down to the surface details, provides extra adhesion, and prevents them from peeling. I used Microsol on these.3 PhotosPat
