But we try, to get a special colour, which shoot looks like the 1:1 one, that was flown at jet-power on saturday.

Did not like the gloss look, did a little weathering.



Can you describe in detail the technique used ? Did you apply a coating afterwards to get rid of that gloss surface ?
This is all new to me... I'm a newbie in this field and rather the type of pilot which goes to meetings with unpainted jets...
Thanks for all input.


Nicolas.

Placed my order with The American Distributor CamLex and should have my red white and blue L39 in about 3 weeks. I decided to go with stock gear and struts to start, I can always pimp my ride later. Now that I am waiting the 3 weeks or so, can anyone who has built one advise me on JR servo selection so I can order those and have everything ready when the kit arrives.

Thanks

You can use a matting paste to get rid of the gloss finish - try the car paint finishing suppliers or see the following link...

http://www.farecla.com/automotive.asp?id=66&stage=Automotive&set=1, under the specialist products section and you need the Advanced GMATT Flatting Liquid .

Cheers

Jeff

Don't tell me you are already about ready to check the throws ?? Don't do this to me !


Jeff,

Thanks, I have forwarded the details to a friend of mine in the automotive business. Took a look again at the paint, and yes, much too glossy !


Kevin,

I am a Futaba adept ; most of the servos used in mine will be Futaba S9450's, they're faster than the JR 8711's most pilots use (but less powerfull as well).
Had excellent results with the S9450's in my F-16's, especially with the ACT Europe Fuzzy Gyros on ailerons. Still have Futaba gyros somewhere (GY352 and GY351) which I never used before, so will install these too, now I have the fuselage space and sufficient power. This makes gyros on all three axes .

No, I was just wondering, as these are not shown anywhere.

Actually, US distributor is Cermark. Camlex is a dealer. (at least that was jetlegend told me).
