    the groups that jointly produced the video have been working to get it or directions to it along with other printed materials into the packaging of these various products. eventually, whether it's the FAA or by local ordinances, RC will be forced back to sanctioned fields and the AMA is...

    AMA and Multirotors

    Reading into what is happening around the country it's encouraging that the AMA is involved in projects like the safety video and accompanying campaign that the FAA has undertaken. Whether or not the AMA is actively contributing is something altogether, they could be simply told to not make...

    AMA and Multirotors

    i hadn't thought about it that way....here's an email with the signature CEO, JTEC/Radiowave and Bob Brown, in addition to evading the questions and worrying more about who is asking the question, doesn't think to consider that it's a vendor serving the people Bob Brown is supposed to represent...

    How to dye epoxy??

    I was going to go about ordering some gel coat coloring materials but after reading the article by West Systems in post #10 I thought it probably doesn't really matter what I use so I prepped everything and mixed up a small batch of epoxy to test with. I just happened to have a brandy new red...

    Sport PAU 27% Pitts Challenger Build/Review

    The wings and tail section are the next big step forward and the sequence is a little odd but there's good reason for it so here it is 1. join wing halves together, top and bottom 2. attach bottom wing to the fuselage, double check alignment, attach fairing assembly 3. with bottom wing...

    How to dye epoxy??

    pastel chalk will likely be too light in color compared to the red covering. the article from West Systems was very helpful but I may just seal it and then paint it...heading into the shop to take care of it now. Bart

    How to dye epoxy??

    i was also thinking that since I"m going to mask off the area anyway, maybe I'll just bulk up the epoxy with filler, lay it into place and once it's set I'll just lay a coat of spray paint over it. but the bic pen ink is a good idea too!

    How to dye epoxy??

    ok guys, thanks for the info, i'll look into gel coat dye then use rit if all else fails. strength won't matter as it's already bonded and it isn't structural but it's good to keep in mind that the epoxy is weakened by the dye. come to think of it though, the West Systems filler is structural...

    How to dye epoxy??

    Hi gang, trying to get the red PAU Pitts done but I've got a few gaps that I can't really seal with trim strips so I'd like to run a bead of epoxy like caulk to make it look nice-nice. I'll tape everything off so I won't make a mess but has anyone used dye to make epoxy a particular color while...

    Sport PAU 27% Pitts Challenger Build/Review

    Moving on to the cowl, I still get anxiety when it's time to cut a finished cowl. It all went together pretty well except for a couple of minor details like the lower mounts that needed to be shaped a little to let the cowl roll around the lower corners without bulging. The hardware marked...
