  1. Post on Few pics in Avid Model IV

    By Shipl14, posted
    Thought I'd show a couple of things I've been working on. Fuselage rotator for covering and a baggage pouch made of covering fabric. Pouch has sewn in aluminum tubes that will be strapped to frame tubing. I was thinking of getting backpack or tent material, but then thought of the covering. Seems extremely tough. Any thoughts? Also a couple of pieces I have started covering. I will be reinforcing the landing gear truss this week before I start covering the fuselage.






  2. Will soon be covering my fuselage.  Any thoughts on best fabric weight?  Leaning towards the light weight fabric, or... does the medium make more sense?
  3. Am finally ready to cover my avid mk4. I am thinking about covering all flying surface and passenger compartment, leaving rear of fuse exposed. Seems to be pros and cons on this. Do not think as slow as the plane is that there will be to much drag, looks good, and might, I stress might help with crosswind. Be easy enough to finish covering if does not work out. Will only be used for low and slow, have Cherokee 180 to travel.

    Any comments, have thick skin so anything is ok.
