I watched your videos thanks a lot for the information. Can you tell me please what is the thin material that you use to cover the plane? I don't get the material's name well I quess. Thanks

EconoKote made by Top Flite

[slobknober]

how did you firmly secure the rubberband knobs in?

[chopkinsss]

When you covered the fuselage it had no elastic band clips which hold the wing on and the same with the wing they had no wing strut clips in place. HOW DO YOU TAKE THEM OUT?

[canadianmaple09]

Using a regular iron to apply iron-on film is ridiculous. Getting into the corners and sharp curves is nearly impossible. If you can afford a plane you can afford the $20 to get a proper covering iron.

[liloliver2007]

does that cover go on wood

or just foam

thanks

[Iliumair]
