3DHS 70" Velox

I found that if I sanded the inside of the cowl with some 100 grit sandpaper or a dremel sanding drum ever so slightly that it fits much better. I had a few high spots in the fiberglass and once I smoothed it out it slipped on nicely. My wing tube was quite tight initially but after about 30 flights it loosened up a touch and fits snug, but easily now. Perfect.

This worked out fine. Mostly took the bumpys off the figerglass.

I miss mine. It was a short love affair, only lasted 4 flights.

I really would like to fly one of the new ones. The original was radical.. high alpha was very good. These got my interest. i dont see many videos of these tho floating around which makes me sad.

Well that's good, "only lasted 4 flights" usually is bad news.

Yeah, it wasn't an easy decision. It went like this:

Wife: Where'd our money go?
Me: Well, I got this new Airplane, and it needed...
Wife: Sell one. Pay us back.
Me: :cursing:
Wife: Now.
Me. Ok.
