I just replaced all the sails on my X-Ait standard ?and it was $2600 usd . It would be a whole lot cheaper to replace just what needed replacing. And yes we did use?Maniasoft in Canada but we have not reinstalled them yet. It looks like a good job and he was easy to deal with. Nolton

l'm looking advise on?whether I should replace all the skins on a 2007 Xair Hawk. The flaps, ailerons, and horizontal tail section failed ?the betts test but the fuselage, wings and fin passed with?1350 gm.?

Also can anyone recommend skins made by Maniasoft in Canada? or any other suggests where to buy them would be welcome?

thanks

They just quoted me 3500 used plus shipping. You say you paid 2600.??

Yep I just checked the invoice again. We did use some Colors he had in stock. There was also a guy out of California that makes them but he needed our existing sails for a pattern. That told me he had never made them before. The guy in Canada said he had done 8 or 10 previous sets. I guess we called him when he needed some work. It would be a good idea to replace them all at one time,as someone ?has already pointed out. And the guy in Australia sounds like a good possibility if shipping does not kill you. I am in deep south Texas .Where are you located?
