I have come to what I feel is one important realization. Sanding and filling is a portion of building where I tend to rush lose patience, then regret it after it is all said and done. I caught myself hitting the forward button this morning. Thinking to myself just how much work this is. Then I remembered the regrets of not. I backed up and watched the details. Learning appreciation for them. All said and done. I’ll be watching these filling and sanding segments in detail over again. I learned details that I had not previously known about. Thank you so much for your documentation. The persistence that is displayed is exactly what it takes to make these works of art nice. I really enjoy watching these build segments. Learning to enjoy these filling and sanding segments. Don’t know that I’ll ever find real enjoyment in it but appreciation for detail must be realized and respected. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I know it’s very time consuming to do the finish sanding of the aircraft, but the end result makes it worth it. Believe me, I feel like rushing it too, but I want my airplanes to look good at the field on maiden day. Thanks for the kind words. I’ll be documenting as much of the build, and finishing process as I can for all my projects. I’m glad you like the content. 👍
I’ll encourage displaying the finish sanding. I myself make too many mistakes in this part of the process. I know these videos eat time and cost money at some level. They may not ever be a real winner, but in a world of too much instant gratification, details become salt of the earth. Appreciate your willingness to share your art work.
Alright Frank you are finally saying fillet correctly my brother ...Thats progress...a step in the right direction...Boy this Biplane is turning out beautiful too Frank. You are just an awesome builder. May take you a little longer than some but just look at the quality bro. Totally worth the extra time. Cant wait to see her covered and ready for her maiden flight....👍👍👍🤙🤙🤙
Thanks! I really enjoy the build process. Slow, and steady wins the race as they say. My goal in every build is to strive for perfection, but they seldom are perfect. I can’t wait to get it covered too. It’s gonna look awesome! 👍😎
Mine will show under the covering as well. It’s just part of the deal I guess. If you start trying to feather in that wing tape, it could do more harm than good. Over sanding the sheeting will make the wing look like hammered dog crap. 👍
Estoy terminando un ultimate que construí hace 15 años. Si hubiera existido este video en esa época me hubiera sido mucho mas fácil. Gracias!!!
Great flying model

Nice work, enjoy the content you are posting. Shame the kit is no longer available and that the company that made it is no longer with us.
Thanks. Yeah, I miss those good old days. 👍
The 2 ultimate I had I never sealed the cabins like this.
Do you know where I can download the "General Information Booklet?" I bought my kit opened, and I don't have that manual.

Designer Carl Goldberg died from tainted donated blood : ( R.I.P. Carl. My Jr. Falcon is my fav. I continue to design aircraft in your influence.
please do the “frank’s how to” on the wing tape and feathering the edges. mine glow in the dark under the covering :(.

could NOT have found any better music for the sanding in "FAST MODE"...!
😂😎👍
I had mine for 10 years flew the crap out of it lost it to a bad battery. I have another kit just haven't found the time to build it.
Sucks to lose such an awesome plane. Glad you have another to build. 👍
