I don't have an E-6 Rx, but do have black pods that get hot as hell down here in summer.
Wonder if anyone has found a significant reduction in heat by spraying the pods white? Thanks. John255 |

White Paint is very Good
Quote:
My brother, Buddy, did some tests with my infared thermometer on auto metal. A huge difference between White or Silver and Most other colors. Easy to run your own tests, lots of cars in most parking lots. I had a painted white canopy on one of my old DLGs and remembering how much cooler it was, I had Dave paint the pod white, on my new Arrow Pro legend. Also some epoxies start getting soft at between 150-200 F degrees. That's one of the reasons I post cure and use AeroPoxy on the CF laminates I make. I'm good to over 200 degrees F. Too bad it's not as clear as some other epoxies. Probably overkill though. walt Last edited by ROOSWH; Nov 06, 2009 at 07:04 PM. |

Seba,
Man that feels good...thanks! You never know it until you hear it! I've also learned a hell of a lot from your build post. Your flying plug-in stab designs are especially important to me. I'll never build anything else. Thanks all round! John255 |
