EXTRA 300S HELP
 
Hi I have just recently assembled a Seagull Model Extra 300S ARF. And lately the covering on the plane has been
developing air-pockets under the covering. And im and wondering why and what to do.

Best Regards

Jon

Poke the covering with a pin and use a heat iron and work the air to the pin hole.

I just iron over it and let the bubble area shrink.
If there is a depression under it, get a syringe and put water in the pocket then iron it down.
