Despite my best efforts, there were still a few low spots, and a few areas that chipped out when removing the tips. In addition to the tips, I remedied the counterweight issue I created weeks […]

Yesterday and today were filled with sanding off the fairing compound (not what it’s called) and then mixing up another batch and layering more on. I think I’ve hit most of hit most of the low spots, and should be able to sand it all back down (once hardened) and get a good idea of […]

With a thicker mix of epoxy-flox, I went in and added more compound to the remaining areas of the tips. It’s messy, and again, I may regret this, but in the interested of getting this done I’m moving forward. Next up will be sanding down as much of this as I can while keeping elements […]

Added epoxy-flox mixture to tips. Further reinforced tips, which also allows the ability to sand back if needed a little bit. Filler was allowed to cure and then I did some initial fairing on the pieces. Results, so far, are good. I think more flox would allow for better positioning of the mixture and easier […]

Fiberglass reinforcing gussets were added to most of the tip pieces. These will prevent the added fiberglass from cracking free/separating from the factory part.
