 I ordered this plane, returned it for another and then returned that one also.  The reason for my returns is that the covering and fit of the cowl hatch was horrible.  I could have lived with the hatch fit but I could not get the wrinkles out.  The wrinkles looked like ripples on a pond.  They were small, but there were a lot of them.  I did not take any pics. Is this normal?  Is it because of the weather?  I have never seen one this bad?  Should I order one more or give up on it?

Wrinkled covering is a hit/miss affair with ARF's. Sometimes they are perfect, other times like a prune. Where they are in the container ship or in the warehouse has an affect.

Since you have gone through two with unsatisfactory results I would contact a Tower customer service manager to ask if they can inspect one before shipping, that is if you still want one.

Nice airplane at a good price...roughly half what anything comparible would cost.

Merry Christmas.
