Hi all
As far as i know..you can use normal CA (not necessarily foam safe) as well as epoxy on EPO.

Get Fevi kwik 702 if you can http://waamall.in/Product38819793-b8a4-4ade-b7fa-0ef378a2f877.aspx
other wise you can always use Fevi kwik 203 http://waamall.in/Productf4598448-96ad-4ad1-8e92-cc2ab26bbc9f.aspx

Edit: Corrected second link.

It is a different issue, as I still can't fly it, waiting for Power Pack and Servo Pack

No problem at all. Although it has come to my notice that some of the links are not working :D

I will search for more and post, as and when I get them.

Please do not you epoxy as it does not bond the elapor but on the long run hardens and creates a layer where in you can peel it out.

That is interesting... wonder if it depends on the type of epoxy. 

So all it takes is just about any CA (foam safe or not) ?

Super Glue is also called cyno & in India we have brands like fevi kwik, locktite and metlock etc.
Get a medium viscosity one. Please do not you epoxy as it does not bond the elapor but on the long run hardens and creates a layer where in you can peel it out.

Are these brands FOAM SAFE? because in my understanding CA is not safe for foams. it burns right through them.
When you fly electric, fly clean, fly quiet, and fly safe!

And for new easystar owners who are afraid that they might mess up while joining the two half's. Dry fit the two half's together and hold it with some tape, now just run some thin CA on the seams. Thin CA like Fevi kwik 203 automatically runs into seems and forms a bond. You cant go wrong with this method :thumbsup:

i tryed the CA 203 (fevi kwik) on thermocol. it made hole in the thermocol  :headscratch: :headscratch:
