Default Candy Kane Build Thread

I finished glassing the wing and now is time to pot the wing.

1) Check the incidence prior to potting the wing. Mine needed a 1/32" plywood shim in front of the large hold down bolts.
2) Cover the wing surface with shrink wrap. Place a paper towel inside the fuselage.
3) Make a mixture of finishing epoxy and micro-balloons.
4) Apply oil to the screws to help reduce sticking.
5) Dab the micro-balloon mix on the wing saddle.
6) Attach the wing and gently tighten the wing mount screws.
7) Clean up any excess on the surface of the fuselage.
8) Double check the wing and engine incidences. They should be 0-0.
9) Set out of the way to dry.
