Been working on mine this, up to the engine install, so far everything is going together real well. I am a bit disappointed in some areas of the covering, it's a bit rough here and there the wing tips especially.
Mine came with a couple of broken stringers on the bottom of the fuse. Tower shipped me a roll of monokote for the repairs I have to make and wouldn't you know, there is a pretty decent variation in the colors. Stinks.
The monokote colors are MIXED, and then sprayed ontop the clear plastic.
From what I have heard... the colors have been like that lately, and even on the Models from factory....
Like any paint job... it can be difficult to match paint colors... Even more so, when you have a company in China
that could be supplimenting all kinds of chemicals to get the cheapest rate... W/o Topflite ever knowing so...
I think this is why Horrizon is keeping it's covering company in Germany...
