Sweet upscale! I am just in the process of painting one right now, going to fly it in a few weeks on an E11J.
I actually used exclusively wood glue for the intakes because I can't stand bonding my fingers together with CA... Takes a lot longer to set up needless to say, haha!
What's that blue rocket, a Talon?I love that rocket so much, I had to upscale it

Many people complain the QCC is hard to build...but as an airplane builder I expect you'll have no problems. It builds into a really good looking model which flies very nicely. Another great design from the mind/computer of John Boren.
I'll have to remember to bring mine to the next BEMRC launch.
I was wondering if this was one of John's.
Attach first, that way you don't potentially goof up the glue joint to that body tube
Newbie question; I assume this is kind of the correct "way of things" if you will, with finishing? To always build prior to any priming, painting, etc? I'm completely new to the finishing thing and am getting ready to move from E2X to Level 1+ with balsa fins and unfinished pieces. My plan is to sand and seal the balsa parts (fins). For ease and convenience, is it recommended to sand, seal, sand, seal, etc. balsa parts PRIOR to gluing to the BT, or after? It seems like it'd be a pain to sand if they were already attached to the BT. Thanks in advance!
AFTER!!!! AFTER!!!! AFTER!!!!
The glues don't adhere well to painted/primed/ or sealed materials
