Metallic blue Monokote squares, American Flag sticker on turtle deck, Tru-Turn sticker on cowl, (ok to advertise here since I have the stock rubber spinner on my plane), and sticker of a blonde haired hottie on the rudder.

Status: offline 		I am into RC flying for two years now. It is a great hobby that I can share with my 4.5 year old son. Both of us look forward to our trips to the park. It is a very educational activity that provides teaching opportunities ranging form basic physics to responsible behavior. I am very happy to be hooked and wife doesn't have problem with it!

My fleet:
1) Firebird Commander
2) Aerobird Challenger (with drop and night flight modules)
3) Megatech Diversion
4) GWS Tigermoth pico
5) GWS Beaver
6) Nimbus aka Butterfly aka Cobweb aka Lazymoth (eye in the sky, carries my eyecam)
7) Fengyuan Cherub 400 aka Cermark Easylander
8) Graupner Funky Chicken
9) Multiplex Lupo
10) Mountain Models SmoothE
11) Mountain Models Switchback

I also have a Freedom Flyer (electronics4u) which I did not have much luck when I first started. I am in the process of reviving it. A Smartech Aerohawk micro heli's guts are flying in other aircraft. A GWS PT-17 Stearman and another Nimbus kit waiting to be put together.

My 4.5 year old son's fleet:
1) Airhogs Intruder (2 of them)
2) Airhogs Resistor
3) A Diversion clone (flies better than the original)
4) Wattage Lightning
5) Firebird Outlaw

A Firebird Scout is slated for his 5th birthday. We will also start building a Diddlebug together.

In addition to the RC aircraft we have a good number of FF aircraft.

Happy flying!

Atac
