Status: offline 		I know this is a shock but I received my Dynam Catalina from Nitroplanes in defective condition.  Nothing will be done by the company I bought it from.  So, okay I knew going in their reputation for non existent customer service and figured if this doesn't work it's one and done for them which is as it should be.  However, I need some help in removing the motors and re-installing them.  I don't want to force anything and further damage it.  Can anyone out there give me some pointers on removing the cowlings and remounting the motors?  It would be appreciated.  They have been installed by a stoned employee at DYNAM and are cockeyed.  Thanks.

As for your cowls, they should be glued on. If memory serves me it's kinda like a rubber glue.
Take a stiff thin piece of plastic (like a cut up credit card) or popsicle stick, and sharpen the edges like a knife blade.
Slip it between the cowl and foam and work it in and around till the cowl pops loose.
