got back from my lhs w\my new arrow to find many bubbles in the ulta-cote and some peeling stripes, im not bitc$%#, just want to know what you guys do to smooth the tatters, and bubbles. also noticed a rattle from the fuel tank that i cant I.D. but other than this im very impressed w\the looks. now if it flys the way it looks, then we b cool. looking forward to teaching myself a few aerobatics soon and this looked like a good way togo. i also looked at the h-9 1.50 P-51 and WHOA!!, had to leave real quick as i was getting weaker by the second. got to eval. the direction of my flying future b\4 throwing that kind of cash on every pretty brd. thanx guys, later,Ted.aka flip-flop-fly!

You will have to re-heat the covering to remove the bubbles - and that is 100% normal as the change in humidity will cause that to happen. The 'rattle' is the clunk in the tank and that is a GOOD sound. That was the pick-up clunk and will alway to with gravity (as does the fuel). Do you have an instructor lined up?

thanx!!!

hey thanks t.s. it worked great. went and got a"heater"@ the lhs and its much better. i took my time and really lost track of time i was doing so well!! looked @the wall clock and it said " go to work son" so im a little rummy. as far as an instructor, the one tween my ears has always done me fine, paid my dues in E flight mistakes, tears, builds and triumphs. im not sayin i couldnt use one as im sure there will be issues like speed, power management, timing and such. the bunch of guys ive been flying with are E only and im the first to break ranks. the big, big a.m.a. field on the east-side is not my " straight-pinky" cup o joe. maybe i should go a little more this winter and see if i can find someone to buddy with. lord knows i dont need to do a full rebuild on it before march! and thanks bout the info on my " clunker" later, Ted Jansen,aka flip-flop-fly!
