Sorry if I started something bad, I didn't mean to. I was just trying to get this project away from myself and on to someone else. It can be flown in the condition that it is in, all it needs is a little paint. I apologize if I have done something incorrectly.

No offense taken. May I suggest that you put an ad in the RCU market place?

You will be hard pressed to convince most fellas here that it just "needs a little paint" - we're a bunch of perfectionists for lack of a better word.

I thought it might help to know.

not supposed to advertise in the forums but since you did..... where did the color scheme come from?[:'(] and why such a mediocre engine?[:@] and those servo connections are a disaster waiting to happen.[X(] i don't like the plastic spinner either but it's not my plane. btw, just my opinion, that's all. other opinions may differ.

Those ARE scary linkage connections. Way overpriced, IMHO.

Let's see here.... The airframe is worth $100 - $200 if it looks better in person and is straight as an arrow. The retracts (Spring Air?) $80. The FX - $100. The servos? $30.

It's worth $400 at best...

On second reflection of my post #52 (even if the Curare in question now is a different model), aren't we being a little hard here on Mr. Bouchara?

Thank You voodoodb! My winter project. I was just thumbing through my latest RCM Mag, and saw a pic of an older advertisment of the Curare. Blue Skies Sir! Doug
