RE: "SHOW US YOUR FLAIR D-7"
I'll come back at the weekend with some pictures as it's currently in storage, wintering so to speak. But I took over two weeks just to handpaint a lozenge pattern on the wings. The covering is solartex with a paint finish. It is a builder's model and very rewarding when a reasonable finish is achieved.
Flying is a reasonably relaxed affair however it must land a take off directly into wind.
I'll post some pics at weekend and scratch the memory bank for build tips.
