RE: nitrate dope???
Hello Tony0707,
The reason I use fabric all over is because of the considerable extra strength it gives to the structure.
Every single fabric thread becomes intimately bound to the wood by the nitrate dope.
My Super Skyolt recently ran out of fuel and could not reach the runway so it came to ground at flying speed into the trees. It was retrieved from the trees without a scratch, nothing damaged buta small crack on one of the wheel pants that had not been properly assembled and the reason for that is that the two halfs of that wheel pants were 3 /16 inch different in length as it came in the kit. So a butched job of cementing together was the best that could be done.
Nice to see you here and thanks for your participation.
