They are using like a stick on covering. I don’t like it. Prefer shrink type film. My Spitfire has stick on covering

My jury is out on the covering, it depends on how well it hold up to the gas residue. It will be a bit before I build it as I am trying to get my other planes squared away before starting it. One thing for sure, it has the worst pilot I have ever seen! Other than that it looks pretty good. I will put some unboxing pics up later. would love to hear from someone who has some experience with it.

There’s a long thread on this plane here on RCU or on the other forum site. I have a VQ Val with the shelf paper covering. I just don’t like it but others differ. It sags in the sun, And of course what do you do when it’s repair time and you don’t have that stuff.

Fix it and repaint the plane? Recover with something else?
