Default RE: Has anybody built a Model Tech ARC Cessna

Sorry to double post but I thought of a building hint that I highly suggest with the ABS planes.

In the instructions it suggest that you sand any area that is to be glued. It SHOULD be an order !! I suggest that you use a hobby knife and carefully SCORE any surface that is to be glued. Most glues won't bond real good to ABS but do a pretty good job. If you SCORE the surfaces the glue will have something to grip to and you shouldn't have any problems. I've used this system for over 10 years with the Model Fly planes and it's worked great. By the way I've assembled all the Model Fly planes and am still flying a 6 yr old Ready and 4 other ones including the Cessna.
ENJOY !!! RED
