Thomas, I have seen your trailing edges on your UV thread. You did a great job!

However, in my case, i'm not looking to extend the surface as the stabs are glued in the fuse already. I'm only looking to strengthen and ''correct'' the trailing edges. I'm considering just brushing the epoxy/baloons mix and sand.

BTW, are you going to continue the UV thread? I've just ordered BVM EVF 2 10s to convert my UV to electric. It has been setup for BVM .91 DF but the NIB powertrain has never been installed (the DF engine and shroud will be up for sale). This is a ongoing project for me, and I was wondering if you mind me posting once in a while my progress on your ''old'' thread.

Cheers,
V.
Vasek,
Unfortunately I won't be continuing the thread, as the airplane has found new-ownership. The new owner may continue it though. Please do post up in the thread, as i'm sure those who were following my progress will be interested to see a UV conversion completed. I wish I hadn't of sold the viper now, as it would of fit in the back of my truck w/o having to carry all the stuff the turbine stuff needs.. oh well, maybe i'll pickup an electra later this year.
