Making a windshield template for high wing cabin model aircraft 

That is how I did my RC cubs and how I also did my fp202 Koala; cub wanna-be light-sport kit plane. I used poster board though for the template, took all day and left a small cloud of profanity hanging above my shop. Good video. 👍

It is coming alive with every episode. It looks lovely Danny

Thanks for posting this very helpful video. I'm dealing with the same difficult task on my current build; the Herr Engg Piper Cub kit for rubber power. I'm converting it to CO2 power and micro R/C. I had it all framed up and covered, but the difficulty I was having with that windshield made me toss it in a box and forget about it. Well, after 20 years in that box, I've decided to give it another go...thanks to your inspiring demonstration. You've given me some ideas, I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you so much!

Not sure if mentioned in the video, the glue I used was Formula 560 canopy glue, by Pacer

Great!!

Comet plans usually had quite good windscreen patterns.

You might try strips of masking tape overlaping and meeting your top and bottom to your outlines working from the mid point outwards. This is an easier technique I believe,

Very fiddly, but the result is definitely worth the effort. Well done!

Do you think a little warming would have relaxed and taken some of the tension out of the final 5mm ?

Can’t wait for the rivets. . . .

Great technic. At 0:11 what is that beautiful engine you hold

I wonder if you gently heated the in place screen and then let it cool it would have kept it's shape a bit.

what thickness sheet is best for a 60 inch span model? 20 thou? 40 thou?

whats the best glue to use for windscreens . ???

That piloted will be in the way of the rubber.
