Fuselage Recover

[jim34285]

Beginning to think about recovering my BC12D fuselage, Never have tried this before but have a few friends with some experience to work with me. Just wondered if there is some info available that could guide us to the best approach. Has someone photo documented their project and would they be willing to share that?

I have some pics in my gallery (Ryannewell, around page 8 or so) and can post/send more if you need them. I covered the same way Rob did and used his site as a resource. The Tcraft is a really nice plane to do the blanket method since it is a box.

Jim,

My two cents worth:

Use Poly Fiber beacuse they have the best training resources. Especially get and watch the video.

Just covering my fuse and the poly fiber process is dead simple. Having built and covered 100's of model airplanes this is even easier- just a little time consuming to get it neat looking.
