Hey Greg....the PAU and 222 is coming along real sweet. You should be very pleased. Hey, question please? What spray did you use for the firewall, motor box and such? Where did you get it?

I've always used cheap primer gray paint first from places like walmart.

If you want the speckled look you then get the flekstone spray. Careful though because that stuff gets everywhere. create a shield or wrap your plane, it will get all over it!!!!!

Any good automotive spray paint though is great for the motorbox in repealing oil/gas.

Forgot to mention.....the base coat of gray primer is so you can sparingly use the flexstone. It is grey/white/black so it the background grey fills in....helping you keep the weight down.

So, after massaging the links with a ball peen hammer ( sounds better than mashing the hell out of them) so that the poorly fit bushing is snug, and a couple drops of thin ca and a jam nut on the pushrods I finally have "rock solid " linkage with no slop.

Herve , please check your current batch of hardware. These really were a very poor fit, sure to cause flutter IMHO
Especially the fit of the bushing.
