I have never tried the melted mono before but I'm sure it would be a good way to go, I always just take a spanky new fresh blade to cut the mono-cote before bonding the surface in, the new blade is the key,,,, you barely have to touch it. And I make sure the epoxy is right over the cut just for safe measures, I always put the stab in first, mark it out when its where I want it, then I cut through the mono-cote ever so lightly about 1/8 inside that line, that way when I epoxy it, the epoxy won't bleed out the side. and it re-seals the slice mark if one has occured.

aa2dd I like your thinking, if your talking about the 40 size, I'm pretty sure you will be working for NASA if the wings stay attached with that 1.25 on there. if its the .60 size which is what I'm sure your talking about, I don't know anything about the 60 yet. however a friend of mine is going to purchase the 60 size this week, so at least I'll get to see one now.

Today was an awesome flying day, I was T_ _ _ tin all over the sky for hours I'll tell you there is nothing like a new plane, knife edges are now effortless its amazing the difference in handling with a new plane and a plane with 3 years of extra glue and wood added, either way both planes flew great but now I don't seem to have to fly it as much I just tell it what to do and it does it, the old plane was like a child,,, I'd tell it what to do, but I had to stand there making sure it stayed doing it.

we went to the NYY game last night[&o] so I woke up late this morning and in my hurry I forgot the dang camera, so Videos and new pics will have to wait another week,,,, [&o]Ughhhh

Happy flying kids
