| How
do I convert my EuroSport to a scale looking model
|
After
having flown their EuroSports, many pilots like the idea of turning
their sport looking model into a scale looking model. Fortunately,
Ralf Schneider wrote a very comprehensive article on how to do this
in Jet Power Magazine. I have scanned the articles in for your
information here.... Part 1

Leading Edge slat template file
|
As part
of the scale conversion of my own EuroSport I created a CorelDraw
file that can be used by sticker shops/sign writers to cut out
templates for the leading edge slats. They are not 100% scale but
are good enough. I stick these vinyl templates in place on the
wings, scuff them with fine sanding pads and shoot a light mist of
plastic primer over them to allow good paint adhesion. The following
pictures show this better than this explanation explains it!!...
Here is the CorelDraw file that contains these templates for the sign makers to cut...

Leading Edge slat template file

Ralf
Schneider has provided a Corel Draw file that contains the scale
version of the above leading edge slat panels!!! A bit trickier to
apply but worth the extra effort if you are going down the really
scale route!!
