So finally it arrive last Friday, wow what alot of stuff in that big box!
Now got stuck in to the rudder, but will come to a halt soon as its too cold to spray primer in the garage at the moment even with a heater on , getting about 8-10 deg c .
Do you guys apply the primer as you build or wait until you have a large batch IE all the rudder and stab together?
Great to read all the comments on the list and the builders web sites like Matts zodiac etc , gives me confidence and hope.
Cheers
Kev

Hello Kev,
Congratulations. When building read twice the manual, take a good look at the photo book and if you consider you need extra help I recommend the Homebuilthelp DVDs and this forum,
Regarding your question I use Valentine Epoxy Primer (www.valentine.es) easy to get in Europe and I wait until I have a nice batch.
Take care,

I built one module (e.g. rudder, stabilizer, wings, etc) at a time. After I finished drilling a module, I disassembled, deburred, primed, reassembled, riveted, and placed the module on a pedestal so I could stare at it for days.

Applied as I built. Used Zinc Chromate spray cans and plenty of ventilation. Sprayed only those areas where two pieces met.
Did you get the Quick Build Kit? I did. Used the Jabiru 3300A engine.
