Fuel proofing exterior latex paint

I agree with Tokio re: Nelson catalyzed urethane. Proflooney uses Nelson's paint exclusively. It's glow and gas proof.

The review said mini or micro servos, so I'm considering buying and trying it. If I have to buy new servos, ah...

E-trainer suggestions, please!

The research is going pretty well. That UK thread on the 12 foot lanc is amazing.

I'm willing to buy micro gear, as long as it's not too much of a layout of money, and as long as it's standard...

E-trainer suggestions, please!

Hello all. I'm looking to purchase an e-trainer for a 13 year old with no flying experience.

What I have now is an FMA Razor. I'd like to use the electronics from this so he doesn't have to buy...

Yea, this was the one reason I'd go glow. However, the thought of losing an engine, then the whole plane, does not give me good vibrations ;)

Also, if I can get the outrunners or a good gearbox...

top flight spitfire

kram's got the right idea. The house latex I'm using isn't 100% fuel proof, so I'm going to put Nelson hobbies' clear on top to seal everything.

The idea is to have a plane in the 100 - 122" size be electric powered. I have no clue what the target weight for something like that is. I was actually going to ask about the differences in...

I've got no call to take cheap shots at anyone. I just didn't appreciate the insinuation that all glow flyers are elitist and hate e-flyers, and especially don't like the insinuation that I was one...

I stronly doubt any acrylic paint is glow fuel proof. I can almost guarantee it's not.

As far as the Testors, I don't know what Sean used. He frequents this forum, so perhaps posting a question...

I used 0.70 oz fiberglass to cover my TF Spitfire, and I just finished putting panel lines on and priming it. It was a LOT easier than using Monokote to cover it. I will not be Monokoting any of my...

Thanks for the article. How many of us would have the presence of mind, not to mention the courage, to put the lives of the people on the ground before our own?

My sympathy to the families.

Cheap, fast, fuelproof finish wanted

The water based Minwax Poly-Crylic is most definately not glow fuel proof. There have been many discussions on this in other threads.

Thanks for the great input. I was just picking the .91s out of the air to use as a price point example, not to compare their power to the electrics.
