After the demise of my old Hobbyking Catalina Jan got me the new Dynam version - bless her.
After painting (it was plain grey) and the mod to the outrigger floats I felt I should share the idea I originally used on the old Catalinato good effect.
See Video. Regards Peter.

So glad u got a replacement know how much u loved the old one :) great mod look forward to seeing it in action. Never know if it keeps raining u will get to try out the floats at the field ;)
Hi Paul. This one is a lot heavier after all that paint I put on but it should still float!
Recon the flying speed will be higher due to the weight of the paint I have put on...
So Puddle Jumper 2 soon takes to the air - I hope.
I look forward to seeing Catalina Pete and perhaps can fly the Twinstar around with it in formation? I must admit I started with the Twinstar when I first joined the club 11 years ago so it's becoming a bit of a yawn but at least it's a test bed for my first set of 2.4 gear.
In all the years I've never see a float plane take off at Barton's Point, look forward to seeing yours on the lake...
Hi Tom
Sorry to say can't take off at the lake...
Nice job Pete. Look forward to seeing it at the lake soon.
