Looking for a source for canopies
Since you all are much more familiar with the manufacturers of R/C jets than I, I figured I'd ask you all for help.
As you can probably can tell from my my screen name, I'm a scale hydroplane racer. I also build much of what I race which brings me to my question:
Does anyone know a good source for F-16 canopies in 1/8th and 1/6.5 to 1/6th scale?
I am currently scratch building some scale boats that ran, full sized, from the late 80s through last summer that used the F-16 canopy to protect the driver. Most of the sources for boat parts don't make them real accurate so I'm looking for a source that would be closer to true scale
Thanks

There are a couple of Chinese ARF kit manufacturers that sell 1/6 F-16 kits. They may be able to sell you a canopy. Try Skymasterjet.com or FBjets.com
There may be others..

He makes quite a few canopies. Perhaps he has one that will work for you.
