Are you flying an O or a P?when using sono tube how important is it to glass the inside of the tube? Being that the outside is already glassed. I have heard mixed reviews. Any ideas would be a big help.
snip Research 'concrete - forms' in your area to eliminate couplers (diameters 6"-5' up to 20' in length). QUOTE]
He is right on here. Do NOT go to Home Depot to get the tubes unless it is really short. By going to a real contractor supply house you can get a tube that will be one piece for the airframe. For strength and weight it will be better, you have to borrow a trailer to move it though. Some of the tubes have a release layer in them but it will peel right out, children are good for this job.

Paul had suggested we leave the release in the area where the coupler would slide. Alas, that was right after we removed it. This is one step where a 10' pole comes in handy as it gives you something to wind the layer onto.Some of the tubes have a release layer in them but it will peel right out, children are good for this job.

I think you oweeee meeee a neeeew keeeeyboard.I remove it because the stuff we get here is a wax and when it is very hot it gets sticky. So it is peeled, I soak the area the coupler will be in CyA glue and sand it smooth.
I use Robin's Daughter to get the liner out, she did not like it when I rolled the tube across the room.
