WING PAINTING! [ Sling TSi Build Video # 18 ]

[@Kiwi0Six]

I feel your frustration with Sling, and really appreciate your polite attitude with them. Very honorable! Onto the good stuff… I love your paint scheme, and especially the colors you picked out! Great job and thanks again for sharing

[@TheBaldPilot]

Thank you for the kind words! I cannot take full credit for paint scheme as Evoke provided the design and based the colors on my suggestion of light and dark blue. They added the green accent which I thought was really cool!

What shade of Stewart's Red did you use on your Bearhawk? Thanks in advance.

[@TheBaldPilot]

It is Firethorn Red. Thanks for watching!

Missed ya at OSH….

[@TheBaldPilot]

I was there. Unfortunately, I missed a lot of people. It happens every year...

[@Parr4theCourse]

@@TheBaldPilot Our first time and yes I can see how you can miss so much as there is so much!!!

[@SteveEmilyGove-ml7rf]

My wife and I were at Oshkosh this year, our first time going. We were at the Sling Ding Thursday evening, sorry we missed you. Hopefully another time. N720S

Sling have a good product but in my opinion their operations are sub-par at best. We ordered a QB fuselage with parachute and Berringer wheels etc. we get it delivered with Matco wheels etc and BRS chute setup(which we didn’t order). They frustrate the be-jesus out of me!

[@TheBaldPilot]

Glad I'm not alone! Thanks for watching!

[@FalcoGeorge]

@@TheBaldPilot They are a constant frustration. Fuselage + F/F + canopy + U/C kits have a combined 42 backordered parts!! That wouldn’t be so bad if there was a system to recover them but unless you bitch about it, nothing happens. Don’t get me started on the KAI!

@@FalcoGeorge I ordered the complete TSi kit all at once. Empennage, wing, fuselage, U/C, FWF, canopy/finishing, upholstery kits. The kits arrived in 2 shipments, 14-16 months after ordering. There were 198 parts backordered or missing. These parts staggered in over the next 13 months.
