RE: GP Ultimate Bipe.40 build
I really wanted to go with after market cowl and wheel pants , but the wife says I need to cut the spending a little , so I`m going to give the cowl that came with the kit a try . Everything I`ve read about the plastic parts , says dont waste my time with them, but hopeefully they`ll last a few flights if I mount it right.
Cut the cowl out and used CA to glue the 3 pieces together . Went over the seams real good , then sanded with 120 grit and applied a coat of lite body filler . Then sanded down with 80 grit folewed by 120 . Came out pretty good , I`ll give it a couple of coats of sanding primer and it should be ready or paint.
And the kit has remained true to form , went to cut out the wheel pants , and they gave me 4 inside right halves, lol [sm=spinnyeyes.gif] It well just have to live without any.
I might end up doing the color scheme that's on the kit box , don't really care for it , but having trouble coming up with something else, any ideas ?
