Thought I would do a build thread to show everyone
how I go about rebuilding an old airframe.
This is my old Parkzone P51 which has seen better days and
after some very rough treatment I fibreglassed and repainted.
Again she was showing signs of neglect most due
to dreaded torque roll on my hand launches.
This time I'm going to install a set of mechanical retracts that I've
had lying about for over a year.
Also, I'm going to try a couple of new building tecniques that I've been
reading about on various forums.
Ok first up Off with the old paint and fibreglass.
Lots of stuff to come off
Mustn't forget the cockpit.
As you can see I've got a bit of work to do with the sanding and filling
so stay tuned for the next installment.
