Good information about post-curing. Check the heat distortion temperature for
the foam board that you're using if you decide to post-cure. Some of the
molded polystyrene boards (such as pink Owens-Corning Foamular; blue Dow
Styrofoam) have heat distortion temperatures in the 100-105C range (2

tightly closed canopy, parked out in the summer sun, could come close to

The glass is just there to keep the foam from abrading away! The structural
loads are taken up by the wood. The KR is a wooden aircraft that is fleshed

I disagree on the post curing process at 150 degrees F. You can certainly
cure most room-cure epoxy types quickly at 150 degrees F. To do the post
cure you have to get the temperature to the T sub g point. That is the
softening point of any epoxy. For room-cure types this varies from 180 to
It can be done with a few simple tools and some ingenuity. You'll need some
4x8 construction foam panels (the 1" pink stuff works well), a couple of
heat guns and an oven thermometer. Build a box of the foam panels big
enough to hold a wing section, suspend the wing section from the top and

Lets go though a couple checks...
1) DOES THE PROP GO THROUGH 360 DEGREES OF ROTATION?
If it does then maybe you didnt have sudden stoppage but perhaps a failure
in the ignition circuit - did you try #2 coil ? You could have trash on your
#1 points...
2) If the prop does go through all 360

Dan,
That looks very good. Nice and neat. What did you use to wrap the
wire bundles? Is it just black electric tape? I have some plastic wire
wrap
RE: What did you use to wrap the wire bundles?
Joe,
I got the wrap from (don't tell anyone) Radio Shack. It comes in a package
of 10' and I have used about 1/2 of it. It is very easy to use and bundles
the wires up as you go. I also am using the wires that came with certain
instruments. If there

Don't feel guilty, the military and Sikorsky A/C (for one mfg.) use the
stuff by the ton, admittedly mostly for anti-chafe reasons.

Here's a tip that will keep the table in-place while you're accomplishing the

Inevitably you're bound to bump into the table,which will cause it to move,
