Hi all
Am looking for a spare canopy frame for my RF4. I am replacing my current canopy that although generaly ok has 2 or 3 small cracks. The newer one is the sleeker canopy with a large dv window just in the right place too. So that I can continue flying on the old one and in the meantime slowly work on my new fit, please let me know of any frames for sale.
Thanks

The canopy frames or the RF4 and RF3 are very easy to do because they are just a soft steel tubing that can be easily bent without any fancy device, just a little craftmanship. It is brazed with "Castolin" silver alloy so do not require any welding skill.
If you have the old one as model you should not have any problem.
Material can be found in any hardware store or commercial place where pipes, coils, metal sheet etc are sold.
Thin wall tubing is used in carpentry by blacksmiths.
Hope that can help.
ciao
Eugenio
