Attaching turtle deck on a Sig Kouger?
Hi
I'm building a Sig Kouger, and the turtle deck is plastic. What type of glue or epxoie should I use to attach it to Balsa strips?
Thanks for your help.

RE: Attaching turtle deck on a Sig Kouger?
I've built 3 of these, great airplane. Attatch it just like a canopy. I will usually build the fuselage and then cover it, paint the turtledeck off the plane and then attatch it to the top of the fuse with canopy glue, like RC-56 which works great. Next attatch the canopy itself with the same glue.
RC-56 is similar to white glue but dries clear and remains soft. It's pretty great stuff and I use it in all sorts of applications.
If you really want to make that Kougar pretty, build a new turledeck out of balsa and cover it like the rest of the plane, looks better and adds very little weight.
