Default RE: Badius Owners Club III

Tim, i've had these tubes of jb weld for a couple of years now and only used them a couple of times. one was a little job, i can't remember what, but on my t38 talon, which is epo, the wings and nose cone, which i'd epoxied on, came off. it seemed the epoxy didn't form a good bond. jb weld seem to work much better. as lots of these chinese quick builds come with glue, i guess i should use that for epo. actually that's a good idea, i can do that with the at6 texan tomorrow. interesting Jim that gws are now doing epo planes. however some of these new foams coming out i don't really like. as i said, my talon has been a problem (and only 1 flight so far) and now the nose is bent crooked instead of breaking off like a foamy. this also happened with my gp synapse (tiny d/f futuristic jet). that's made of aerocell. planes look nasty when that happens. elapore (multiplex) and z-foam (parkzone) are pretty good as is epp, although sometimes that can be a little soft
