Default RE: Citabria Pro by Balsa USA

I will. I have been kinda banished from painting in the garage for the last week now. My wife is having a garage sale this weekend, and all of the stuff she is selling is in the garage, and she doesn't want me getting paint all over everything.
I have to paint the red sunburst on the wing, and finish the wheel pants. Then, I will be ready for clear coating the whole thing.

I just picked up a new 21 gallon 4.5hp vertical air compressor, which I will use for painting the clear coat. So, I need to get a paint gun, and get a filter/regulator for painting as well. I found some which will be about another $50 investment.

Hopefully, the garage sale will help pay for it.

Once everything is painted, I have to finish running in the engine and get it remounted, charge batteries, tune it all up, etc.

But, getting there. Little by little.
