Warbirdz - Can't help you with your question ... but I would like to know where you got your Caribou because I would like to have one. Does it have a flat or glossy finish? Thanks

I got the Caribou from TexasRCPlanes - however it requires much work even as an ARF- cowls and nacelles are small making eng mounting difficult - l am using Zen G20's - unless you choose glow or electric eng's hang out of cowls regardless of which gas engines you choose- tight fit in nacelles for ign units and fuel tank -using 12 oz tanks - formers in fuse not installed very well, used additional epoxy to correct issue -will put some pics up this weekend -

Would really appreciate seeing pictures. Wish it had a flat finish ... I suppose I could spray a clear, flat finish but would rather not.

Want to go electric - 2 x AXI 4130/16 motors each having a 6S Lipo (maybe a 5S Lipo).

Sorry for going off topic.

The paint is a flat olive drab with flat black areas mixed in -
