Great flights there Speed. Looks like she tracks beautifully and handles well. Just wish I could be in shirt sleeves up here in PA in January to fly. Have you had it out since then??

Cool vid!

I like the "right now" song. It exemplifies what all we modelers feel when we show up with new aircraft...we're here and we're outa excuses, time to fly baby!!!

Congrats! I love F-18's in a blue angels color schemes![sm=thumbup.gif] Wait till you put a turbine in there and you'll love it even more!

i believe he used diplicolor school bus yellow, and navy blue from the local auto parts store. Its like 5 bucks a can. I know he used u-pol clear, which is around 18 bucks a can. you have to get that from a car paint supply.
