| I just got my new Vario skies! this item just came out. The skies are made of plastic and very light. In my case I modified a little bit the shape of the original and add some rails that mounts with screws. The skies are attached with an snap on clamp that works very well. | |

| Now the skies will be ready for the painting process plus adding some anti skid on the upper side. | |

| The following picture is to show that you can do masking for the powder coating process using a silicone base tape. In my case we mask those pieces that would go in the main body. After the powder coating process. | |

| See above how we glue the bearing holders for the tail boom rotor shaft. I carefully mask the area of contact then sand the powder coat until I see the metal and use BVM aeroepoxy glue to glue them together. I can't believe how strong is the aeroepoxy! I did some tests metal to metal and I can't take them apart...... the metal got bend and the join still holding. I am very happy I did all my epoxy work with aeroepoxy. | |
