A very informative video, amazing how you stripped back 50% (well that it looks like to newbie) if the plane , shredded it’s skin like a snake 😅.
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
Hi Ranbir, once you’ve done a few you do get quicker and learn the common mistakes. You’ll enjoy the next video

in the old days the planes were cloth and the men were like steel , and they thought the plane made the dogfighter but now they know it's the man of steel flying from the clouds like "AAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" with whatever weapons or his fists , from an any plane too

I'm guessing that you would do a weight and CG check afterwards as there have been so many changes.
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
Hi Simon, yes all our projects usually require a full weight report submitted as part of the sign off process. Fortunately we two inspectors as part of our team

Interesting video, the skinning looks very similar to my Rans S6. Are you an inspector now Mark?
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
Hi Tom, yes I’m sure the process is very similar but I’ve not reskinned a Rans yet. Yes, both myself and Alan are BMAA inspectors.

Just found your channel and working through the videos. Currently moving from PPL(A) to the microlight world and it all seems way more fun. The Peabee looks like great fun especially. I'm interested in how someone becomes a microlight engineer? Is this something you have covered?
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
Hi Mike, great that you've found us hope you continue to enjoy our content. The PeaBee is hours of fun. Its not something we have covered but is something your more than welcome to call in and discus with me/us anytime. experience of type is a big factor.

Is there any grease or protector you can put on the nuts to stop the corrosion?
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
We use ACF50 on most nuts bolts and tubes, it’s very good for rust prevention and cure, but when possible we replace nuts washers as a default

Dacron vs Xlam -- why not redo in Dacron. How much better is Xlam vs Dacron for the cost. Not much of info out there. Cheers
@wingnutshomeofmicromainten6946
You can still get Dacron skins and people do still use it, but Xlam is significantly better. Much longer life, significantly stronger even against hangar rash, easier to repair and noticeable reduction in Drag name a few do the benefits
