Edge 540/2.6m
To ventilate the fuselage you will need to cut some
cooling slots. The fuselage material is easy to cut
out, using your Dremel. Finishing with a sanding
drum will keep the process simple and tidy. Where
you place the slots is again dependent on the final
fit out and components used. But as you can see
from the picture there is ample room for a sufficient
number of ventilation slots.
Keep in mind that you should not cut through the
seam line or the fibreglass reinforcement band.
Keep your vent slots about 25mm from the seam
line. Use the seam line as a reference to keep your
vent slots nice and straight. The shape of the slots
is not that important, but making them oval, and just
large enough to accommodate the Dremel sanding
drum makes the process easy.
