lol those pictures bring back memories, if you face the other way you can see my house on the hill just before the golf club !!!!
This picture was taken by Johan in the pits, i had the kit shipped to me and built it in my bedroom at night. The good thing about working there, was we finished work around 2pm, which left me the rest of the day to fly |
RE: Bvm Bob Cat Build thread!
It must have been perfect with those working times!
I will see if I can get Per W and Johan email address,s Duncan! Good luck with your Bob Cat;) |

ORIGINAL: Ali Hi lasse You sure do like your Pro Mark :D Oh and your Bvm models. I dont blame you. A great pair of products if there ever was one.! Thanks for the advice, i think I might go for this on mine. I dont suppose you have a list of what sheets you used for your Bcat do you? Oh and any tips on how to apply would be very useful too. Thanks again. Regards Al Ali, you have, as usual, right! I really like promark and my models;)! It is relatively easy and cheap to get a good result with Promark. My UB was a completely different model with transfers from Promark See this short film from Stockholm’s hobby fair, so you understand what I mean!! http://www.junkshop.nu/flyg/hmassa_2...bvm_ub_big.wmv Regards Lasse P |

Lasse,
Your Bobat comp looks superb, very nice work. :) I see you have the strobe beacon fitted, is it very effective? can you see it under daylight conditions? Regards, Alistair. |

Is the chrome on the leading edge of your flying surfaces self adhesive or is it painted on? My BC has a mismatch in the trim lines between the top and bottom of the wings. The strips which you have applied would hide this problem on my plane. Ian |

ORIGINAL: ThomasP Lasse, Your Bobat comp looks superb, very nice work. :) I see you have the stobe beacon fitted, is it very effective? can you see it under daylight conditions? Regards, Alistair. I've the same system installed in my BC and other a/c's. It's VERY effective, mine is red on top of fuse. I don't know what Lasse have, but that color is visable as long as you see the model:) Is the chrome on the leading edge of your flying surfaces self adhesive or is it painted on? My BC has a mismatch in the trim lines between the top and bottom of the wings. The strips which you have applied would hide this problem on my plane. Ian I'm usng FlightMetal, an self adhesive tape used by many scale buffs. It can be polished or dulled as you prefer. Thomas |

I am satisfied with this type of beacon, and I find them effective under daylight! I have a small film on my JL F-16 with the same type of beacon where you can see how effective they are in daylight. I`m using Beacon Mini www.flugmodellbau.de http://www.viddler.com/explore/drhanke/videos/180/ Ian I'm using Flite-Metal stripes! www.flitemetal.com Lasse P |
RE: Bvm Bob Cat Build thread!
Lasse,
