RE: Building a Dynaflite Super Decathlon

Does anyone know how Solartex compares to Monokote and other heat shrink covering when it comes to weight? Also what type of paint should be used on solartex to withstand glow fuel?

RE: Acroduster Too Design/Build

Awesome! I will be looking for the video. I have a SuperTigre 3000 that I would like to install in it. So shaving 4lbs would be terrific! ;)

RE: Acroduster Too Design/Build

107ch, I've been wondering the same thing. I would like to see the finished product and have a flying report. How can we engage Smithcreek?

RE: Building a Dynaflite Super Decathlon

Nothrottle,

I have a Supertigre 2000 I've contemplated using instead of the O.S. 120 Four Stroke. In your opinion, how would this engine perform in this bird?
