mine is red dod not seem like monacote it is white on the back side and monocote the color does all the way through

A few years ago Top Flite changed their formula for Monokote. The adhesive does not stick as well and when heated, the material melts and strings out when you try to cut it !
Oracote, shrinks better and the adhesive is much better....FYI.

i have used and had success with both i just dident think it was monocote on my 540 but it might be but the glue side is white all the monocote i have the glue is the same color as the monocote

It is Monokote. I contacted Aerobeez right after I got my first plane and told them that it had wrinkles and that I tried ironing them out. That the Covering pulled away from the rest of
the covering, exposing balsa wood. All the could say way sorry ! I asked what was the covering ? Monokote they said.

I was able to iron out my wrinkles with no problems..

Motorman did you mount your throttle servo bracket to the side wall of the engine box or did you mount it to the floor of the engine box would it be possible for you to post a few pictures of your throttle servo set up.

motoman11 10-22-2013 05:38 AM

Hey dudes. Didn't you learn to proof read in school. I have never seen such bad grammar and spelling anywhere. Makes you look stupid or foreign, or both.

Its called using your voice recognition on your cell phone and not taking the time to proofread it or spell check it because you're at work and you just want to get the message out fast so who's the stupid one now.

You're still the stupid one no matter what your lame excuse is. Still makes you look ignorant to the casual observer. Blame it on something else other than your laziness. Typical in todays society.

motoman11 10-23-2013 06:03 AM

Sorry Sir!! At work...... will try harder

tlandon 10-23-2013 06:46 AM

I didn't know the grammar police are proof reading posts now. Thanks for enlightening those interested in aerobeez aircraft with your superior grasp of the english language. I think it makes you look like a couple things that don't need to be mentioned here. Motoman I like the video diary. The plane looks great. I am looking forward to seeing the first flight.

Maiden flight of my edge 540 from Aerobeez Flight went well the landing was not so good I have to work on that!
Thanks to all that contributed as I built her and got her ready to fly!

drube 10-27-2013 07:30 AM

Looks good!

lfinney 10-27-2013 08:59 AM

Tlandon is a senior member of the adult Depends flying squadron pay the old troll no attention...his caregiver is watching his activities again..

pschulte 10-27-2013 11:58 AM

Checked out your maiden. Good job. Looks like it flies well just like the aerobeez msxr. It took me a couple landings to get the landing speed correct. I am impressed with their planes.

TVL 10-27-2013 05:44 PM

Looks good moto, makes me want to get going on mine. I only have tuesday and wednesday nights to do anything on it but the last four to five weeks I've worked long hours on those two days so I haven't got much done. I started a thread on the Giant Scale 3D aerobatic forum. My DLE had a side mount carb but after I posted a few pics on the thread on how I was going to mount the throttle servo another member gave me the idea to change it to a rear mount which is what I did for under 20 bucks. Maybe I will be able to get at it more in the next couple of weeks. This will be my first gasser to.
